Reviews
Unfortunately, my second stay in a different room was a bit disappointing. I had a frustrating "up your game" moment when I discovered a cockroach and some small bugs in my bathroom. After reporting it, the night staff's response was to hand me a spray bottle and tell me to "spray around yourself." Although I took care of the bugs, I requested the next day that they send someone to handle the issue properly. Regrettably, no one was ever sent to follow up.
Even with the bug problem, I still feel positive about the hotel overall. Its location is perfect—quiet and peaceful, making it an ideal base for exploring Barcelona or staying for a week or two for a summer school at places like BSE. The breakfast isn't huge, but it has all the essentials, including fresh food, cereal, meat, cheese, and jelly.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel in Barcelona! From the moment I arrived, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready with great recommendations and assistance. The hotel itself was spotless, with excellent housekeeping ensuring everything stayed immaculate throughout my visit.
One of the highlights was the amazing European breakfast – a wide selection of fresh pastries, cheeses, meats, and great coffee to start the day. The location was also perfect, making it easy to explore the city's top attractions, restaurants, and public transport.
Overall, this hotel exceeded my expectations, and I would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Barcelona!
What happened next? Two weeks of complete silence. No updates, no assistance – nothing. Only after I followed up myself did I get the disappointing response that the belt couldn’t be found and that I was “free to take any measures I deemed necessary.” That’s just a polite way of saying: “We won’t be doing anything else.”
Whether staff were questioned or if there was any serious investigation at all remains unclear. It seemed like they just waited it out, hoping I’d drop the issue.
For a hotel of this supposed standard, this is unacceptable. If you have valuables or meaningful personal items with you, I’d strongly recommend choosing a different hotel – because here, you’re on your own.
