Breakfast was suspended due to COVID but price not reduced.Great neighborhood, nice street, great location. Stylish IKEA room w/ good shower. Bed okay, floor dirty, spy cameras everywhere. No staffafter midday, the owner, Eduardo, was a drag. Charged 10 euros extra because I used the salt shaker and some oil and vinegar from the kitchen. Complained and he called me petty!

Nice place of the beaten tracks

We stayed for three nights in a room towards Diagonal. Sure you could here the traffic but not a major problem. You could, however, hear others talking in the reception area and in their rooms as they were in yours. Nice and helpful staff, nice area with lots of restaurants just down Carrer d’Aribau. 15-20 minutes walk to Raval, another 5 to Rambla. For those who want to visit Barna without staying in the most hectic districts, this is a good place to camp out!
