Great central location though in the middle on a very busy street with constant traffic. Hotel had seen better days, but pobably used to be a quiete fashionable hotel some years ago, but now it just looked old. Clean but old. The service we were met with seemed unfriendly at first but losened up later. Cleaning carts and other unnecessesary articles were found in the hallway, leaving a messy impression. The hotel room was very small, the bathroom a good size (again old but clean) and the bed was amongst the worst, noisiest and oldest beds I've ever tried. I give them 3 stars because of their location in Barcelona, becasuse of a reasonable prize and because I found it clean, but far from 4 stars. They should put money in freshening up the place.
