Spanish GP trip 2005
This review is on behalf of 3 friends who needed a reasonably priced hotel to use as a base whilst we attended the 2005 Formula1 GP and on the evenings explore barcelona, we found it to be friendly, clean and comfortable, there is a tube train station just round the corner, El Putxet which was just 4 stops from the centre, Las Ramblas etc and this hotel met our requirements perfectly, we were at the cheaper end of the tariffs being on a budget and if readers of this review are looking for a clean, quiet, affordable, comfortable base you will not be disappointed here, now we know about this place Barcelona is going to be a regular weekender for us, please note that this hotel also has much more luxury rooms available that were out of our price range. Also should you be planning a trip to Barcelona for the first time, the public transport is fantastic, it works!!!! Just remember that the Tube (metro) closed at 12.00 midnight on sunday rather than 2am as we found out.
