Location is the main reason to book here. I would reserve again. However the walls are paper thin and sound carries. The room is small but good value. Be aware la Rombla is under construction but not working at night. There is no safe in the room. They did allow us to store our bags as we arrived early. We did not have breakfast as it was continental type. There are choices near the hotel. Staff was friendly. Don't expect a fancy hotel room. Do expect a great location to tour from. Good value.
