amazing stay!

rooftop terraceamazing viewsfriendly staffsmall pool
the rooftop terrace had amazing views of the city! i loved the location since it was close to many points of interest. public transport was so easy to use from here. the staff were very efficient and friendly, a HUGE plus!
the pool was very small. it also only had four sun chairs. so, it wasn't the best if you wanted to sunbathe!

Good Stay Near Arc de Triomf

large bedspacious showerrooftop loungeoutdoor seating
My room featured a large bed and a big TV. I appreciated the Bluetooth speakers for music (I love to listen to pop music). The walk-in shower was very spacious. The rooftop lounge and bar were great, with outdoor seating areas and views of the surrounding area.
The small pool only had four sun chairs, so it was not ideal for sunbathing.
