Para resumir la estadía en el hotel: Cosas buenas : la comida muy buena, la limpieza,el linen: Cosas malas:algunos de los empleados de la recepción muy mala atención, no deberían estar en esa posición. Muy lejos para ir a los cuartos , no tiene como uno resguardarse si esta lloviendo para ir al ckecking. No hay nocheros,,ni tel.,no suficientes tohallas. Muy lejos para la estación del metro y dicen que queda a cinco minutos. No hay restaurantes al rededor. Nosotros ni volvemos a ese hotel ni lo recomendamos. La ubicación es peligrosa .

Clean and excellent property. Excellent staff and dining options within the property. One of the receptionist came out to help transport our luggage to our room when she saw us struggling! We really appreciated that. The set dinner and breakfst options were excellent. All in all a great one night stay. Will definitely recommend this property!

Staff was not bad overall, would be better to have nicer people. However, the shower in the bathroom was so disgusting and dirty. Also, our taxi driver warned us about the surrounding areas, apparently it’s a bad / unsafe area, can’t really say anything about it cause thank God nothing happened to us. Wouldn’t stay here again.

The place is perfect for spending a night having an early flight next day. Price is really good and staff was really helpful. The surroundings were not as nice as other parts in Barcelona but the place worked great for our needs

We arrived late, so the airport location worked well. Booked a twin room but got bunk beds, so we laid the mattresses on the floor, it worked great for one night. The breakfast was decent, and it was a really nice walk around an interesting campus with some creative architecture and landscaping. The hostel is good for a one-night stay near the airport.

Frankly, we considered just driving to the airport and spending the night in the terminal. The parking situation is bad. The parking lot is not paved and had huge washout and generally did not feel safe. The room was filthy. Walls had dirt, grime, and stains. Shower had mold everywhere. The door to the patio had N-word carved into the door. The door did not lock correctly. Nobody manages the other guests. Neighbors on both sides slamming doors, yelling, and banging on the walls until after 12pm. Stay almost anywhere else.

The staff here are very friendly and helpful. Four minute or less walk to a mini-market. This is not a hotel, it is a hostel and looks the part. It's very spartan but clean. We stayed because it was near the bus line that took us to the airport. We only stayed here one night and would not recommend if you need proximity to the tourist areas because nothing is within walking distance. That being said, bus lines and the metro are within 10 or so minute walking so it isn't without transport options.

It was exactly what I needed, cean, safe, large room, hot water, comfortable bed and a cafeteria with good food and beer close to the airport. It's really close to the airport and you can take the underground train from the airport to within 2 blocks of the facilities. It's a good option and I'd stay there again.

Everyone was super friendly and helpful. The rooms and common areas were clean and I felt safe. My biggest complaint was that it said they had a pool, but the (indoor) pool is closed during the winter, and I didn’t read that in the description. Overall, the stay was exactly as I expected it to be. The pictures were very accurate. Super close to the airport and would recommend to anyone who is looking for budget friendly accommodations.

Breakfast was poor
We had a family room, it was extremely noisy most of the night. Teenagers running round then replaced by adults coming in and not respecting anyone sleeping. Some of the sheets were stained. Breakfast was very poor, the minimal options were stale. Reception staff were nice and it was close to the airport. Unfortunately wouldn’t return

This was a generally a good place to stay, but it has some major issues that we had to figure out the hard way for our stay to be enjoyable. The best thing about it is that it is 5 to 10 minutes away from the main BCN airport, and they provide free luggage storage when you check out if you need to go sightseeing for a few hours. We arrived after midnight, and check in was easy due to the 24 hr front desk. The big issue was that we stayed there on a hot day, and our room seemed to have no air in it when we walked in, so we opened the balcony door to get some air. We hoped the air/temperature will improve but it kept feeling very hot. Eventually, after about an hour we complained to the front desk and they instructed us that we have to close the balcony door and wait for 15 minutes for the air conditioner to work! Why didn't they tell us this at chck in or write it in the room itself? We were sweating for an hour before we learned about it. Also, the 15 minute delay is quite inconvenient, but it least it worked at the end. From this point on our stay became much better and we were able to rest. We think on such hot days the least they could do is turn on the room airconditioned before we arrive (we let them know our flight time in advance), and give clear instructions not to touch the balcony doors!!

While the premises are modern and very close to the airport, this is the only pros of this hotel. The place is located inside a school/foundation where you'll walk across employees in the ground area. The rooms lack a safe and you'll have to use one in the lobby. The only soap available is the liquid one in the shower and there's no fridge. Water vending machine wasn't working so we had to use the lobbys coffee machine filtered water which cost 0.30 cents per 500ml. Last but not least breakfast was almost chaotic, with few food choices where the only bread was sliced bread and staff taking everything out and blocking other customers from entering exactly at 10, whereas other hotels will let customers come in and have what's left of breakfast when it's time to close. Anyways, the hotel might be a good choice if you are staying one to two nights on a budget and need to be near the airport or metro, but I'd suggest you book somewhere else in Barcelona if you want a better deal for your money's worth.
