The complex itself was clean and functional, however the rooms were to basic, only a sheet as a blanket, 1 towel per person, tap in bathroom was broken, the floor could have been much cleaner. What was very disappointing was the room had clearly had smokers in it. The room smelled terrible. Dining facilities are limited on site, however there are options a 15 minute walk away. Very frustrating was the fact that the expedia site indicated the airport was close, T1 was not close but closer than the city. Overall doable but not pleasant as there is nothing really out there and extremely basic.

It’s a clean hostel kind of accommodation rather than a hotel. It helps to be able to speak basic Spanish as a lot of the staff do not speak English, but would use it again as a cheaper option of staying in Barcelona

Property was perfect for what we needed-a place for the night near the airport for our flight home the next day. Simple room but extremely clean and quiet with ample plugs and outlets to charge our electronics before our flight the next day. Facility has both a hostel part and a hotel part. We opted for the hotel part with our own bathroom and shower.there is a cafeteria on the facility- we had continental breakfast with coffee- husband had a croissant that he said was delicious. They offer lunch and dinner as well. The property is part of a larger complex that appears to be a foundation of education.

This was a perfect choice for having a long layover in Barcelona. The hotel is very close to the airport. There is a local bus that cost 2 euro to the hotel. The room was clean and the shower pressure was amazing. Complimentary breakfast was a nice bonus. All in all, a perfect inexpensive choice for a short stay in Barcelona.
