Our stay in Barcelona was really good. Mercedes hostel is ideally located in the Plaza and the view from the rooftop over the square makes up for the 100 + steps up to the rooms. We mingled with other guests over Mercedes delicious Sangria in the early evening and breakfast in the kitchen. Then everyone went about doing their own thing with lots of tips on what to do see and eat on offer from our host. So much to see in that city!
