First time in Barcelona and we loved the location of this hotel. It's located near many shops and restaurants and it was easy to walk to major tourist spots. Staff is super friendly and room was clean and modern. Great place to stay! Breakfast was delicious and they rotated food options daily, so breakfast doesn't get boring. Would recommend to couples, families, and solo travelers.
