Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms score lower than other aspects — Rooms and cleanliness rated 7/10, suggesting the accommodation is functional but not luxurious; some may find the standard rooms small.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this hotel isn't an option — the policy is explicitly no pets.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 23:59, so if you arrive late at night, you'll need to arrange it in advance.
  • Parking not offered on site — No parking is listed, so if you're driving, you'll need to find public parking nearby — a potential hassle in central Barcelona.
