Nice room in the lovely Poublenou. We stayed there during a heat wave. Fortunately there was a ventilator in the room to save us from melting, hahaha.
The neighbourhood is really nice and not as busy as the rest of BCN. La Rambla Poblenou has a lot of nice bars & restaurants and brings you directly to the beach. Otherwise you can you use the metro, which is also nearby, to bring you to the hot spots.
We enjoyed our stay!
