We loved this location. It was right on La Ramblas which is the main strip of the city. Pizza and pasta across the street, sushi right there, and the best coffee shop Artisa across La Rambla! The terrace was beautiful and the space had everything we needed and more. We had the same view as Palau Güell across the street that people were lined up every day to see! We loved watching the fireworks on the roof. The stairs were a lot to get our bags up, but our host helped us get everything up to the room and we enjoyed getting some extra exercise. That being said I would say older people or someone with health concerns should definitely take the stairs into serious consideration; we are both 20 year old athletes and were still tired at the top (6 floors, 12 flight)! We brought our little Maltipoo Barkley and they were very helpful and pet friendly. We found a lot of pet hair on the bed and coach when we got there, but we bought some extra cleaning supplies and cleaned it to our best abilities. Maybe in the future they could get a pet cleaner to help with the hair issue, but our overall stay was very comfortable and we loved it. Would definitely recommend staying here.
