This is a hotel. The place is very clean, which is very important and was a plus. I originally booked an apartment with a balcony with two bedrooms, that after I booked was told it wasn’t available to cancel my request that she had another one that she would send it to me to accept it.. I accept it, thinking it would be the same as I booked, but when I got to the apartment, we had to wait because it wasn’t ready at 1. When we went to the apartment it was just a one bedroom tiny apartment with two twin beds put together, I immediately went up and advise that it was not what I booked, we had to wait longer for the other apartment and when we went still no balcony, when I told Joan that I booked a balcony she stated that it wasn’t listed in the amenities. If I originally booked an apartment with a balcony and two rooms and you tell me you don’t have it anymore but have another one, is suppose to be another one just like what I booked and if it wasn’t she should of said, it’s similar but without the balcony. I don’t like the excuse of you should of checked.. The beds were ok a bit on the hard side but not too bad.. everything was clean. This is a Hotel, which it was not what I wanted. The hotel is close to a lot of restaurants and bars, close to Sagrada Familia and the metro, we did not have a problem getting around. The reception is on the 6 floor and the person was very nice and gave us some tips. Check out was very smooth.. I wanted to have the experience of actually staying in someone’s house and being hosted, not to stay in a hotel. To go and sleep is good but if you are planning to hang out in the apartment and cook and stuff is small. It was an excellent area, close enough but not too touristy.
