 The shower did not have an overhead light It was like taking a shower in a cave The toilet shower had only a strip of lighting floor to ceiling which was not enough We could not turn on the light in the toilet shower without also turning on the light over the sink Because there wasn t a wall between the sink area and the bed area just open shelving we could not have a night light The view was nothing to write about just laundry hanging from the apartment balconies and windows around the hotel But we weren t in the room that much so that really didn t matter 
 The staff seemed to be able to accommodate guests in what ever language they spoke I heard staff speaking English French German Spanish Catalan They probably could speak more They gave us great recommendations for restaurants every night Breakfast was great The hotel was a short taxi ride or bus ride away from the cathedral and Gruell Park which is what I wanted to see We were also able to walk to see an apartment building designed by Gaudi The bed was comfortable The room was not spacious but it was comfortable
