Louise 8/10

Australia 🇦🇺

Best central no-frills comfortable accommodation in Barcelona for a couple

Pros: We stayed in basic room with double bed and a wash basin. Bed was against the wall. Room was very clean. Outlook not great from window but who cares. Minimal noise but they supplied ear plugs which I didn't need. Unisex lockable Bathroom/ shower was about 7-10 m away. Mostly always clean. Location was fantastic. Such good value for the location as Barcelona is expensive to stay. A couple of codes to remember but security is important. Did not expect anyone to be there at check in but there was.. certain hours.

Cons: Nothing. Good value for Barcelona if you can go basic.
