This is the perfect location for a few days in Barcelona. It is close to everything you would want to see except maybe Montjuic or Park Guell; those I would recommend taking a taxi for. There are countless coffee shops, restaurants, and bars close by. The room is cleaned every day which is nice as fresh towels were constantly being brought in. The only downside is the noise. It can range from the street noise that comes from outside which is okay, but if the neighbors are screaming, yelling, fighting, or being sexy you WILL be made aware of it.
