This was a great hotel! the rooms were very nice, quiet and clean and had huge windows and a great view! hotel staff were helpful and the breakfast was ok. The location was also good, lying close to both tram and subway.

Nice design hotel, nice breakfast, great view from the (tiny) pool.
Location though is a bit too far and requires using taxi or subway to go anywhere.
Service in the hotel is rather bad, but most of barcelona is the same.
Housekeeping is rather bad : dirty glasses were left for the entire length of our stay, same for some bits of paper on the carpet (not sure they bothered using a vacuum-cleaner).
