Hostal Las Flores

If what you want is a clean, no-frills room in a very convenient location, this place is for you. It's across the street from the metro and half a block from the Bouqueria (massive market and food-hall.) A/C was great. Helpful staff with good English. Note that you need to walk up a flight of stairs to reach the reception desk, but there is all an elevator to take you to the upper 4 floors where the rooms are.

Excellent location

Very helpful and friendly

On the Rambla, next to great restaurants, the Market, stores, metro and the Gotic area…friendly and helpful staff, could not ask for more for the money
