Ok, it's my fault that I did not look precicesly on all the images and thus did not realize that the window goes out to one of the most busy streets of Barcelona with its incredible noise and pollution. One can use a rouleau that eventually cuts off the noise, but it also cuts off the light and you feel caged...

The room is really big and high. It is a very simple place, cheaply furnished without any charme, maybe as clean as an old flat can be but also somehow grubby. The drain of the shower doesn't work good, so you stand in your soapy water. Take slippers with you, it's not a place to walk barefoot. The bed is really short. Not recommendable to anyone larger than 1.80m.

It was not mentioned that the face of the building is undergoing renovation, thus the scaffolding allows easy acces to any thief via the window, which you have to keep closed for this reason. (This is not paranoic: I once was robbed in a hotel room in Barcelona via the window...). Also it's not so nice to wake up naked and seeing construction workers walking by in front of the window...

The door to the room cannot be locked which did not let me feel really secure to leave my things of value in the room, because there are many people walking around the flat all the time. The two doors are partly of glass, and although one cannot see clear, the light that goes on and off in the corridor disturbs. Oh: and the flat has paper thin walls, so you hear every word and every movement of everybody all the time. They might have suffered from my snore...

Maija is a really nice person, and the cuddly cat is nice too, if you don't mind it's toilet in the bathroom.

All in all my stay was "ok" if you don't mind it to be a bit alternative, but the price is realy too high for this class of room.
