Fantastic Views and Great Location!
easy check-incastle viewperfect locationuncomfortable bed
Checking in was so easy! Mery at reception greeted us with a big smile and a laugh. She even gave me what I thought was the better of two rooms. Both rooms had very nice castle and sea views. The location right on La Rambla was ideal. I loved watching the world go by and seeing the concerts from my room.
The air conditioning was noisy. The temperature seemed pretty much the same whether I set it to 18 or 23 degrees. A fitted sheet and a flat sheet comprised the bedding. Inside the wardrobe was a duvet without a cover. It looked stained. The bed was very uncomfortable and hard. I could feel the springs everywhere!
