Swift, efficient, yet low key service was very welcome to a jet-lagged traveler. Taxi driver knew how to get from airport to there. This was true for foint desk, room and restaurant areas. Internet kiosk worked well. Excellent value for money. This location was chosen to be near a sales call. Next stop was las ramblas in downtown about 35 minutes by car. Its 1 block from Corte Ingles, which is a spanish version of Target, if it were managed by Macy's. I got gifts for family in the Corte Ingles and in the old city, for which street maps are at reception. If you have to be in this part of Barcelona, look no further!

the hotel itself was nicely appointed, thereby earning its four stars, with a large bed, television and fairly-sized bathroom. the downside to this hotel is that it is located in a small town outside of the city limits, requiring one to take a suburban train (about a 30 minute ride) into the heart of barcelona. in addition, the walk to the train station takes about 10 minutes, making the venture into town that much more challenging and ultimately obviating the rationale behind paying such high rates. i had originally booked into this hotel because there was a festival going on the weekend i traveled and there were apparently to rooms to be had in town. i subsequently did some legwork once i arrived and managed to locate a more convenient lodging option.
