4.5 star rating	close to the beach, big and clean rooms with a sea view, bus no.41 to the Placa Catalunya.	a little bit far away from the city center, less choice of bars and restaurants.		05 January 2009
5.0 star rating	We had a fantastic 4 night stay at the hotel. The breakfast was the best that we have had in the many city breaks we have experienced. The room was first class! Although a short bus trip from the centre of Barcelona, we would stay again and most certainly recommend to others.	None	McMillan - N Ireland	12 April 2009
5.0 star rating	Exceptionally helpful, efficient and pleasant staff. Cleanest hotel I have encountered for many years (and I'v stayed at lots for business and pleasure). All the facilities in the room worked and the place was spacious and excellent.	Jacuzzi not working and very small. First floor rooms at the front suffer from traffic noise		11 May 2009
2.5 star rating	The room was good and clean but didn't like the beds especially because the single beds were joined to make a double bed. Free internet facility was good. Bus stops and beach very near by.	Took almost 2 hours to check in and hence wasted lot of time. Staff was not apologetic at all and when complained said we are not machines! You don't need 2 hours to get one room ready. There were other guests who came after us and got the rooms. Very annoying. Even after spending two hours to get the room ready they didn't put the extra blanket for the extra bed. when we informed this at night we were told they would send one after half an hour! No surprises, had to call the reception again after 45 min and finally got the blanket at 11.00pm! The used glasses IF taken were not replaced. The room did not have any tea/coffee facility. Nothing 4 star about the service quality. Breakfast was okay but almost the same everyday.Again nothing 4 star about it.The staff was okay but could do with some smile. Nothing about the hotel makes you feel welcome. Very very disappointed. You get better service even in a 3 star hotel.		03 June 2009
3.5 star rating	Sound-proof rooms, free wifi at the lobby, including two laptops. But better to bring your own, because they are too slow.	Little bit too far from metro station.	mato	12 November 2009

4.5 star rating	Excellent location for the clean beach which has sunbeds and parasols for hire and plenty of beach cafes and toilets. 41 bus to Catalunya stops next block every 10/15 minutes takes about 25 minutes 5 or 6 restaurants next block reasonable prices Reception and front lobby staff very pleasant , helpfull and efficient.	I wanted to log on to the internet on the lobby computers but found this impossible. There is a WiFi security programme to navigate which first involves membership and mobile phones and blocks progress if you do not have a mobile phone, to a first time user this procedure proved useless. Fortunately the reception staff were able to find out the information needed for me.		22 August 2011
3.5 star rating	Hotel bar very reasonable prices. Hotel was easily accessible to all the attractions of Barcelona.	The room was extremely hot as the air-conditioning did not work and was not rectified even after I complained. The fridge also did not work. The breakfast room was small and extremely busy, with a very poor selection on offer.		02 May 2012
