 The nearest metro exit is about a ten minute walk Didn t really mind it too much though If you re lazy and don t like walking or carrying a lot of luggage this might be an issue We took a cab from and to the airport anticipating this though so we didn t struggle at all 
 Located far enough away from las rambles and Barceloneta beach to be quiet at night but close enough to get everywhere very easily by bike or metro We rented bikes from the hotel one day very basic bikes but get the job done I m not picky and rode to Barceloneta beach and loved it Relaxed had lunch relaxed more rode around had dinner and then rode the 15min ride back to the hotel We got everywhere else by metro Their was also a calmer beach right in front of the hotel
