Arc la Rambla
"Location is great, but construction right in front of the door, not able to keep door opened being the only source of light, kind of dark room. AC very noisy, cannot sleep if you keep it over night."

"Small room but fine for a few days. Hotel is really well positioned in the city. Didn’t require a taxi or uber for most of the stay. A car rental may be your best bet for some of the outlying sights."
