The location was great as it is very central, and the room was super clean, nicely decorated and the bed was very comfortable. The majority of the staff were super nice and helpful. I had a not so nice encounter though with one of the reception staff about the breakfast option, as for some reason I thought breakfast is included, then on my first day realized the restaurant charges 16 Euros for a very basic breakfast. The reception guy was a bit edgy and rushed to the conclusion that there is nothing that can be done, he was rather scornful when I said that if breakfast is not included, then there should be at least a fridge in the room (the room doesn't normally come with a fridge). However, when I insisted that he speaks to a manager, they put a small fridge in my room. I would have loved better coffee option in the room than the nescafe instant coffee. Also I had to request coffee and tea refill more than once, as it didn't happen automatically through the housekeeping.
But all in all it was a very convenient option for my stay as a first timer in Barcelona!
