Great location, room was cleaned daily with fresh towels, quiet and we slept well (even though it's on Las Ramblas, which is very busy), staff were really friendly and helpful. The Boqueria markets are across the street, giving you a bewildering selection of places to eat, the tapas in the area is fantastic. The Gothic quarter is to the rear, a ten minute walk to the cathedral, surrounded by beautiful mediaeval and traditional Spanish architecture (which puts Gaudi's modernism to shame, imho), plus a host of boutique shopping nearby. Would definitely stay here again.
