The area where the hotel is located can at first be considered bad but:
2 metro stations for 2 different lines and 1 tram are within walking distance,
Many restaurants, clubs, bars, parks etc. are close by,
If you walk a straight line you reach Marina Av. where you have the beach on one side with all that comes with it and Sagrada Famila on the other side.
We did not tried the breakfast, but there are good options nearby. Take time to find them all and you save serious money.
The room was quite big for a hotel, so was the bathroom, cleaning every day, new bed sheets and towels, a big closet, locker and wi.fe available free of charge.
Also 1 bottle if water was included which was good since we had non with us.
Was more than worth it.
Ps: realy good service, and they actualy speak english!
