They must’ve been something wrong with the window sensors, so my air-conditioner was not working. I told staff about this over three days and nothing changed. Waking up soaked in sweat because the room wasn’t cool enough. Complimentary hot drinks in the lobby however half of the containers were empty didn’t get filled up for a day and a half. Black tiles in the bathroom, so you can’t see if there’s mould. No extractor fan in the bathroom to pull out all the hot air just a hot mirror.

Air conditioning went out on our final day….seemed like it was programmed to shut down…. Could not override from room. Room very uncomfortable and street was much to noisey to open windows.

Bad experience, never again with Eurostar group
I booked the hotel in advance, paid a lot for the first two days of my stay (formula 1 & St Joan festivities) but my room had a problem with the A/C, I couldnt sleep during two nights because of that. I asked the hotel to cancel the rest of my reservation to go somewhere else, of course they declined my request.
During the two days they told me that the technician was working onsite solving the issue. Of course was not true. They finally gave another room after I asked for it o the third day.
I also wrote the hotel a message on the hotel.com app, never got an answer.
The funny part they asked me to book a taxi to the airport.
I called expedia and of course they didnt do much either. I will put a claim on the Barcelona’s consumer bureau.

La relación preció - calidad es muy mala porque el hotel es extremadamente caro con los servicios que ofrece. No hay aguas de cortesía más que el primer día, todo tiene costo en el frigobar. La limpieza la hacen demasiado temprano, y el personal de limpieza es brusco al mover los muebles.... Lo único excelente es la ubicación.

Great location easy to walk everywhere in the Gothic Quarter, easy to checkin and check-out. I would say beware of the AC though. We went when the weather was in the 70s (F) and we opened the windows and got a really pleasant breeze all day. But the AC was not what one gets in the States, it was quite faint even at full power and it is centrally controlled by the front desk staff. So I would hesitate to recommend this location in the hotter summer days. Staff was helpful and kind, and it was nice to get daily room service.

One staff was rude. We got there early so the room was not ready. They asked us to come back at 3. We came back at 3 only to find out the room is still not ready. I complained and she got really nasty and rude. The other staff came to straighten things out. rooms were clean. Breakfast was ok.
