“So much potential but....”

Pains me to write this but other than the good aircon nice pool and good location close to metro everything else was poor especially the male reception managers whom were unfriendly and no apology made when they mucked up our booking. So much potential but in a sad state!

“Basic, but a lovely little gem”

This hotel is a little hidden gem. It is basic but the rooms and beds are fine, gardens with bedrooms are sweet and the pool is perfect! My kids loved it for a few days just swimming and having fun. We only had pizzas one day for lunch but they were excellent. Don't expect anything fancy at all, but if you want somewhere quiet outside of the city and family friendly then it's perfect. We really enjoyed our stay. 15 mins by car into town or use the metro.

“Clean and comfortable but not great location ”

We had a room with 3 beds and our own bathroom. It was basic but clean and comfortable and met our needs. It also has a share kitchen you can use It's only a few mins from la sagrada familia and a metro station but we would have preferred to stay closer to the old city / las ramblas to have more choice of night entertainment without worrying about transport. The place is not possible to find as it has no name tag outside so there is no way of knowing how to get in unless you phone the owner. Other than letting us in, the owner was not around and we had no one to ask any questions about how to get anywhere. So it serves the purpose but wouldn't be my first choice next time

“Cheap and Cheerful”

Lovely owner, arrived quite late due to a delayed flight and we were still able to check in (unlike experience at alternative places in Barcelona!) We had a room with a private bathroom, very basic, but on a city break what more do you need?! Very good location, situated about 5 minutes away from the Sagrada Familia Metro station, also lots of places to eat in the area. I have read online there is kitchenware available, however this wasn't obvious but then again I did not ask. My main criticism of this accommodation would be the fact that it is not obviously situated, if it wasn't for a local gent, we wouldnt have ever been able to find the property. Maybe some more concise instructions on how to locate the property would be beneficial...? Overall, comfortable, clean and secure, just slightly basic.

“Cheap as chips”

As cheap as anything and you get what you pay for. Plus free WiFi and very handy for La Sagrada Familia. But basically, nothing much wrong with the place. Beds are comfyish; clean; good WiFi - just don't expect luxury!
