Advantages: Good, quiet location, cheap, Disadvantages: No frills at all, could be noisy
As one would expect from a major European city, and one that attracts many, many visitors, Barcelona has plenty of hotels to choose from. Being a money conscious (mean) traveller, I was looking for something cheap but also not too far from the centre as I was not going to be there long and didn?t want to travel from the outskirts of town. After some research we plumped for the City Urquinaona and, wanting to save more money, booked directly using the hotel?s website rather than through the hostel booking site where we?d first found the hotel. We paid a small deposit and stated roughly what time we?d be arriving. In return we received two e-mails; one was an automatic confirmation, the other a personal message from a staff member confirming the booking and that our arrival time was OK ( we were taking an evening flight to Girona and from ...
Advantages: Cheap, good location. Disadvantages: shareing toilet and shower,
made from plastic, which left the floor slippery and very dangerous.
The location of the hotel is ideal, oppiste the albert docks, in the heart of the citycenter close to all the shops, clubs, pubs and the river mersy.
Th only food court i encounted was the coke vending machine, coffee vending machine and a little bar style table next to them. For hot food i was recommened by the stewart manning the reception to use the pizza leaflets pinned up on the wall. Being a fan of pizza though i was ok with this. They even come up right to your door with the pizza.
During the night i didnt get much sleep, as hotels this cheap are used for clubbers who stop over in the city, so means that all hours through the night there is alot of people in and out of the corridors drunk, poeple getting a shower, passing your door every so often ...
Advantages: There are many great restaurants, exciting place, great nightlife and friendly people Disadvantages: It is quite crowded, some shops/restaurants may be expensive
I have been to Barcelona twice and i had unforgetable experiences both times. If you walk along the Rambla, you may be surprised at how exciting it actually is.
In my opinion Barcelona is one of the most exciting cities in Europe. There are many great restaurants along the rambla, the locals are friendly and the level of service to expect in the restaurants along the rambla is quite high.
I would walk along the rambla many more times.
I would recommend you walk along the ramblas in Barcelona no matter what you want. If you want to be in a quiet restaurant, in a cheap restaurant or in a restaurant for a specia occasion, the ramblas will have something to offer. There are many dancers and markets on the ramblas and the shops are great. ...
