The hotel was a fine base for enjoying a very relaxing area, so close to particularly the wonderful alleys of Barcelona, which always offer a surprise, an amazing new pot of tapas, or an unseen twisted iron rail opening to a mysterious garden, and shopping areas. The location was excellent, near a pedestrian street. I ate at the rooftop restaurant near the venue. The breakfast was delicious with incredible view on Barcelona, offered breads, cereal and eggs.
