The location of the hotel is good. Walking distance to most popular attractions. Also there many restaurants near the hotel. The staff is very helpful. The drawback is there is no elevator. Inside the our room, the floor is not level. We had to walk down a few steps to go to the washroom which I think it's hazardous especially in the middle of the night.

I would've liked non-clear walls for the toilet, and have it not in the middle of the room, with little sound protection, but otherwise I was very happy with this property!

We loved our stay here - we had a room with terrace it was spacious with a a really comfortable bed I loved the style of the room and hotel in general being in a beautiful old building, the breakfast is nice simple but plenty enough - daily fruits, yogurt, scrambled eggs and bacon , cold meats , cheese toast croissant and fresh cakes Also you have free drinks in your room and a help yourself cafe area which is always open with simple snacks and drinks, lots of lounge areas throughout I would recommend when in Barcelona

Very interesting hotel, unlike any I've been in. Great overall experience. Loved the free Nespresso coffee and snacks. We had room 18 which was at the very end of the hall, which was great because there was no through traffic past our door, so it was quiet. The street outside however, could be a bit loud. Merce24 just started so it was a late night party and it seemed to be just outside the window. Obviously not the properties fault, just keep in mind it can be loud. The area is great and walkable.
