L’emplacement

The only real advantage of this place is the location - it is close to the city centre. However, La Rambla is currently under major renovation, so the whole street is dug up and very noisy.

We stayed in room 16 and it was very disappointing. The room is extremely small and looks nothing like the photos. The bathroom is tiny - it is difficult to close the door while inside. The room did not feel clean, and we saw small bugs crawling around. The window was also a problem: only one narrow part opens, and the other part has no glass, so it feels uncomfortable and unsafe. Overall, the room felt more like a basement than a hotel room. Another big issue is the location of room 16 inside the hotel. It is right next to the shared dining area, fridge, coffee machine, and shared bathrooms/showers, so you constantly hear people talking, making coffee, and walking past your door. I would not recommend this place, especially this room.
