No Consideration

We requested a quiet room but ended up in a room near the elevator. I went down to Reception but they said all other rooms had been checked in. (It was only 4-5pm). I questioned if they had received my request, they retorted that a request is always just a request. There was no choice unless I paid to upgrade. It was a bit like falling into the trap so I refused. I doubted if they had ever looked into my request long before I arrived. Obviously, this is not the practice of this un-professional Reception. Your guest can just tell upon arrival but certainly the chance to fulfil request is not likely. Since this is a Student Accommodation, extra noise all day and night. There is a notice on the wall of the corridor saying the quiet time is from 11pm. Therefore, do not expect you can complain or sleep without noise before 11pm! In our case, we were so tired after an early flight. However, it is really disappointed about the inconsideration for different types of guests. I also want to mention our room is a room for handicapped people. ( I did not request that. ) Toilet is higher and it is not a comfortable facility to me as I am just 5'2". Moreover, they do not provide kettle in room. You can get hot water from Dining Room when it is opened during their meal times (dinner serves from 8pm only) but you are not allowed to take their cups out of the Dining Room. This is very impractical and inflexible for matured paying guests.

Great view, but a hike to get it!

Agora BCN was a fine dorm-room experience for a night. It was a hike to get there from the subway system (especially when carrying luggage) and the room was sufficient and clean enough-- nothing more. Breakfast is included, which was a plus and it's set on a very pretty hill. If your hotel room is just for showering, sleeping and you don't mind taking the subway to your sight-seeing destinations and hiking up a hill, then this is a fine budget hotel option.

A Dorm Room

We were led to believe this was a HOTEL somehow related. To the university Imagine our sirose to find a DORM room with single beds. It was clean and reasonably attractive. The shower was large. On our third day we asked for a clean towel. We learned this would come with an extra charge since this was not really a motel. Food was served in the school cafeteria, typical college food, lots of starch, little protein. Sometimes it was edible.

ottima sistemazione, ma attenzione alla mensa!

Ottima sistemazione un po' sportiva, ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo. La camera quadrupla ha 4 letti singoli, due normali e due in un cassetto ad estrazione sotto gli altri letti. Attenzione: pessima la cena!! servizio da mensa universitaria, cibo assai scadente!! Per la colazione sono stati molto gentili: siccome dovevamo partire presto (ore 5 del mattino) ci hanno preparato un sacchettino da portare via con una brioche confezionata, un toast con prosciutto e formaggio un succo di frutta e una mela. Molto comodo, va richiesto la sera prima al banco.

Adresse à retenir !

Venus pour la finale du top 14 en famille, cet hôtel est situé à 10 kms du Camp Nou. Nous y sommes allés en voiture et avions réservé un parking à proximité du stade.Très facile d'accès avec un GPS. l'hôtel est très calme, les chambres correctes pour une ou deux nuits. Le personnel est très accueillant. Des repas sont proposés à des prix plus que raisonnables.

Altamente recomendable.

Las instalaciones son nuevas, las habitaciones espaciosas, por tratarse de una residencia para estudiantes hay mucho movimiento pero en mi experiencia se respetan los horarios de silencio. El desayuno es lo mas destacable ya que posee gran cantidad y variedad de opciones. El wifi es bueno, la limpieza diaria se paga aparte. La ubicación es alejada de las zonas de interés pero cuenta con una estación de metro a corta distancia, la zona en que se encuentra es muy agradable (parque).

preisgünstige und saubere Unterkunft

Das Hostel liegt etwas außerhalb, durch die Metro erreicht man den Stadtkern in 10 bis15 Minuten. Eine Buslinie führt ebenfalls in das Stadtzentrum. Das Hostel ist sauber und das Personal freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück ist sehr vielfältig. Gleich nebenan gibt es einen schönen Park. In der Nähe liegt ein Supermarkt und 2 Friseure. Leider gibt es auf den Zimmern kein TV. Die Zimmer sind einfach ausgestattet mit Betten, Tischen, Stühlen und Schränken. Das Hostel stellt Handtücher zur Verfügung. Es gibt einen Fahrstuhl, einen Fitnesraum, eine Terasse und einen großen Gemeinschaftsraum mit Fernseher und Billardtisch. Das Preis - leistungsverhältnis stimmt. Der Aufenthalt dort war angenehm. Wir können es weiter empfehlen.

Bruit, manque hygiène

Les 2 premières nuits sont réveillés par les gens qui rentraient ivres et hurlaient en pleine nuit, il y avait même des vomis dans les cages d'escaliers. La 7ème nuit était quasiment impossible de dormir, des groupes de jeunes des clubs de tennis (50 à 100 ?), quelques uns jouaient, courraient et criaient dans les couloirs et cage d'escalier sans que personne intervienne; j'ai du aller voir l’accueil à 1h du matin pour qu'il appelle "leurs responsables". Cela a cessé au alentour de 2h et a recommencé vers 6h du matin! Nous sommes 4 dans une chambre avec 2 lits normaux et 2 lits tiroirs, il y avait pleine de poussière au dessous des 2 lits normaux une fois les 2 lits tiroirs sortis. De la moisissure autour du bac à douche; aucuns crochet ou barre dans la salle de douce pour accrocher les serviettes, c'est un petit détail mais important au niveau d'hygiène !

Séjour de 3 nuits à Barcelone.

Séjour de 3 nuits pour visiter Barcelone. Hôtel un peu excentré mais station de métro Mundet à 10 minutes à pied qui vous emmène dans le centre ville rapidement. Chambre de confort acceptable pour un séjour bref. Possibilité de repas sur place pour 9.68€ mais ne vous attendez pas à des repas gastronomiques pour ce prix là. Petit déjeuner compris tout à fait correct. En bref, excellent rapport qualité/prix pour des voyageurs de passage.

Très bon rapport qualité / prix

Quartier un peu éloigné du centre ville (15 mn en métro). Attention il s'agit d'un résidence universitaire donc impossible de parler d'hôtel. Confortable, pratique il s'agit des chambres étudiants. Propre et le petit déjeuner et compris dans le prix de la chambre. Bon rapport qualité prix
