 It was up a very steep hill and was kind of a pain to get to The area coming up to the hotel smelled like sewers but a lot of the city did and the hotel itself didn t smell The area around us ie the stress up to the hotel and on the way to park guell had rude and alarming graffiti on the walls about tourists Sometimes there were official posters against tourists too Didn t make us feel welcome in the slightest 
 The beds were comfy Shower was nice The restaurants food was super super tasty Staff were helpful enough Everyone has access to the rooftop pool but was quite the let down It s close to the metro stop Lesseps so buy a T 10 on your first day and you ll be able to go everywhere you need on the L3 green line
