Mercedes was very welcoming and I was offered a nice cool glass of wine on a very hot day outside. The room wasn't large, but then again it's not a hotel but a person house. The location was great right on Place Real (Reial). It is six floors up, but not bad seeing you are in a very historic building, the views from the large terrace were fantastic. My room as mentioned was small, the outside shower was fun as it is what you need in the mid summer in Barcelona. The bed was clean and comfortable, it's a pity the wifi was a bit patching. On the whole I was happy with the stay.
