We really enjoyed our stay with Benoit! I actually made a mistake of not noticing that there wasn't air-conditioning, but it didn't matter in the end. The place is very cooling at night (during early June). The room is very cosy and the toilet is right next to it, so it was very convenient. The place may not be large but it definitely grew on us and we were sad to leave the place :(.

Benoit was also very helpful, allowing us to drop our luggage earlier than the check-in time. In addition, he provided us with a map and told us about the places to visit and how we can get around the area.

The Sagrada Familia is about 15 min walk from this place, and the Barceloneta beach is around 20 to 30 min away. Las Ramblas, Plaza Catalunya are all within walking distances as well, probably about 30 min if you take a slow casual walk.

An enjoyable stay! :) Highly recommended for anyone visiting Barcelona and looking for affordable accommodation!
