This was a gem for one night before we flew home. Quiet, very clean and comfortable for our family. Very kind staff. Location was convenient to get to the airport and a short walk to the subway. Took about an hour on the train to get downtown for the day which was easy. Would definitely stay again.

This property isn’t less expensive for a taxi to the airport than those hotels near the Old Town. There was nothing to do at or around the hotel. It was just as expensive as hotels near the city center.

Good overnight stop

Checked in at 01:30 in the morning - 12 mins from the airport by cab (23 Euro), spent the night had breakfast and moved on to Barcelona centre. The hostel was exactly what we needed for the first night.
