Personally, I loved this neighborhood and prefer it to a more posh setting. I never felt unsafe, even when sitting outside, waiting for a friend, well after dark. However, to some, the graffiti and dumpsters may seem too rough so, just understand this is an up and coming neighborhood in its formative years. There is a grocery store right beneath as well as, pastry and coffee places EVERYWHERE! I loved it!
As for amenities, the bathroom is stocked! Qtips, feminine products, even nail polish remover is present. Everything is very clean and the bed is super comfy with plenty of pillows. Juan is not stingy with bedding! Juan is super accommodating but pretty much leaves you be after initial welcome. He has two fabulous little dogs who never bark and stay tucked away in his quarters unless you invite them to spend time with you. I fell in love with Mia who would come sleep with me🧡. However, the dogs stay with Juan and are silent so, if you’re not into them, you won’t know they are there. There is a lift which makes hauling suitcases easy. It is just a couple short blocks from Ramblas which makes getting a cab or the metro or bus super easy. I would definitely, stay here, again!
