【良かった点】 ・ベッドルーム、トイレ、シャワールームは掃除が行き届いており、かなりきれい ・トイレ、シャワー、洗面台が別々なのもよかったです。 ・シャワー温度の微調整がきき、水圧も強い  いまいちな点 ・夜に窓を開けると若者の声でうるさい ・人数に対してエレベーターの数が少ないうえに動作が遅いため、エレベーター待ちが頻発する シャワールームの扉に隙間があり、ドア外が濡れてしまう

It was okay. For the price I think they should provide a towel and a lock or at least have free locker storage, but you had to pay for everything. I also didn’t like the storage under the beds, you have to get on your hands and knees every time and it took up way too much space. Cleanliness was okay, but they never clean in between. Kinda depends on your roommates. I also wish the bar was open more? But the location was great. Vibe was okay

Muy buen lugar!

En general bien, cerca de la Sagrada familia y del metro lo que facilita el traslado a otros lados, tiene varias variedades, opción de desayuno, las camadas son cómodas y con luz individual, tiene espacios mi lindos de esparcimiento, muy recomendable! El tamaño de la habitación es pequeño pero realmente solo lo usas para dormir así que sin problema.

I have stayed in many Generators (7 to be precise) and this is the worst of them all due to the nonchalant ways of most staffs. I had no power through my bed (unable to use the light or charge my phone) and on my way out (early morning) made them aware of it. Come to find out request was submitted to maintenance at 6pm when they close at 5pm. No empathy displayed- they made me feel like I was a non paying customer 😏. From the security guy to front desk personnel they were very unbothered unconcerned
