I've stayed at Barcelo three times, and it never disappoints. The hotel staff are friendly and always willing to assist with anything I need. The restaurant offers a wide variety of food options to suit all tastes. Rooms are consistently clean, comfortable beds, and the VP room is definitely a plus. The location is excellent—close to restaurants and bars, and within walking distance to the mall. It’s also in a safe area, which adds peace of mind during your stay. Highly recommended!

Loved the upgrades! The gym could use more floor space. It’s very cramped and a lot of old machines. Better with less machines and more free weights and space.

We paid for a 4 person stay, however we were given a King bed and a extra bed that barely fit one person. Luckyly 2 of them were children and they barely fit in the King Bed. This was not informed beforehand. Other than that the stay was good.
