Reviews
- **Location:** The hotel is conveniently located near several metro stations, making it easy to get around. The airport bus drops you off at Plaça Universitat on arrival and departs from Plaça Catalunya when you leave.
- **Breakfast:** A good variety of delicious options, including vegetables, fruits, cold cuts, cheeses, and sweets.
- **Room:** Although the room itself was small, it had a spacious balcony that made it feel much larger and open.
- **Bathroom:** The bathroom was large, well-designed, and very clean.
- **Amenities:** Electric kettles are available upon request, and slippers are provided.
Cons:
- **Layout:** The hotel is comprised of two buildings. Our room was in the back building, requiring us to take two separate elevators, which were quite far apart. Navigating the maze-like hallways between them was confusing, and I'd be concerned about emergency exits.
- **Charging:** There are no USB plugs, only Type-C outlets.
