REC was nice. Convenient to transportation and food. 7th floor terrace was nice. Barcelona was fantastic. However, we arrived from airport around 10am and had to practically beg for room which was finally ready at 3pm. This was after days early notice asking for any early room. Front desk staff acted like they were doing us a favor finally giving us a room which we only got after we went to front desk every hour or so. Are you telling me not one room was available before 3? Next time, another place.

Very small rooms even for the superior ones. Very tight hallways and other areas in general. The neighborhood is very busy and noisy during the day and doesn’t feel too safe at night. I wouldn’t stay again
