Our quick stay at the Suizo revealed may surprises. Just outside the door and around the corner one could find the most interesting variety of shops, late night gelato or nice restaurants. The Gothic Cathedral and the other government buildings added to the maze. The hotel was great for our purposes, easy to use and was air conditioned !

This was the price we paid for Suizo, too (if I recall correctly, about 80EUR).

Clean but with no charm
Clean hotel, well situated in Barcelona, tenants are polite and available. The breakfast has no interest at all. We were put in a very very small room were the bed took all the place. No charm at all. We were a little bit disapointed by the description made before our arrival.
