The location was ideal for our plan during our stay in Barcelona. It is about 5 mins walk to metro station Collblanc. We bought a 72-hour metro pass and took the metro train everywhere. Sagrada Familia is about 20 min train ride and it takes you straight there. The Sant Estacio transfer station for Renfe High Speed train is only 3 metro stops away. And the airport is also accessible by train. I’m sharing all these since it was a deciding factor for us. The room is as how it is in the picture, a good place to sleep while you spend your day exploring the city. There are stores and food places nearby. High speed internet available and TV has cable with many stations to choose from to unwind after a long day of exploring.
