We had a wonderful time at Sid's place, and recommend it highly for its good value and all you get for the price. First of all, the location is fabulous. It's a short walk to so many great destinations, and with little restaurants and markets just across the street and down every block. Very central. (Tip: go to the tiny supermarket directly across the street and ask for the "Alma" cookie, made and packaged right in Barcelona. Best treat we ever had, and we took them home as souvenirs!) Second value item: you have access to a very nice and easy-to-use kitchen any time you like. Sid offers you a big refridge shelf of your own. Every day we made breakfast and coffee before setting out, and each evening we made a snack and had an evening coffee there. Third value item: the room was cozy and clean, and the bed large enough for comfort. I think maybe a queen. The shower was roomy and lots of hot water. You do have complete privacy in your bedroom and bathroom as they are yours alone, although there is no lock on the door to your suite, which might have been nice. We also had the kitchen to ourselves every time we wanted it. Fourth value item: totally quiet room not overlooking the street. You can't take this for granted in Barcelona. The only disclaimer I would add to the review is this: this is a home, and it has a "lived-in" feeling. A few minor things could use repair-- chips or wear here and there. (But it is clean) In other words, you're not staying in a 3-star hotel. If you require that kind of perfection, this might not be for you. We found it to be comfortable, relaxed, clean, friendly, safe, accessible, quiet and a really good deal at a very modest price. I would stay there again and recommend it to a friend.
