Mercedes is a very welcoming host, offering tips for sightseeing and eating out as well as a great breakfast. We were rewarded for moving up our luggage to the rooftop-apartment by the breathtaking view over one of the tourist hotspots of Barcelona. We booked a few hours beforehand and shared room no. 3 with an open shower that had saloon-style double-doors that won't close completely, so you can hear what's going on outside. However, Mercedes advised us beforehand, that this room is cheaper, so we expected something like this.
