It is a university dorm, don’t compare it to a 4 star hotel. Has a simple kitchen, utensils are provided. free breakfast was placed inside room each day while we are out. It was a typical “continental” style breakfast coming in small packages of milk, bread, cereal, coffee, tea. No meat or fresh stuff. close to beach, bus D20 takes us to Pl Espanya and many tourist attractions on the way. One minute for me to walk to the bus station on the beach. Subway station is within 10 mins walk. the staff told me it needs 20 mins to have warm water. I managed to take a shower each day within 5 minutes otherwise cold water could bring me back to colleague memory of cold shower in winter. Not complaining about anything, pandemic may make life hard there , even in a beautiful place like Barcelona.
