Not great for the money, but ok overall.
Nice modern look, free internet, good A/C. And it was only two blocks from the beach. But virtually no amenities for $260 Euros a night! No washcloth, no Kleenex, no in-room coffe, no free breakfast, no airport transport. Even the nice staff could not make me return at the price.

Decent Hotel. Friendly Staff
The hotel is very modern and not cheap looking like most modern hotels. The staff was very friendly. The location is great. Only a few blocks from the beach, and one block from a nice promenade. The view from the hotel is very nice, and it has a nice pool/solarium in the terrace. The only thing I didn't like was the lack of common amenities such as ice machine or an iron. They do provide stuff that other hotels don't like a free mini bar (just mineral water, of course) I really liked staying in a residential neighborhood rather than the tourist part of time, I felt more like I got to experience the culture. When eating near the hotel for instance, people speak in catalan, and the food is very authentic.

Shopping tip:
Short walk from hotel
Although the closest metro station is Llacuna, the Poblanau station is only 1 block further, but you get to walk in a nice promenade with many shops including groceries, clothing, bakeries, etc. There is nothing between the hotel and the Llacuna metro station

newly renovated, cool but less cozy
The hotel location was ok, but not great; as it is close to the beach and close to the metro; however the distance to the nearest tourist attraction is not walkable, so no evening promenades in the neighborhood. The front-desk personnel was very nice and helpful, but their computers in the business center needs a thorough cleaning as they run slower than 1997 computers. Also the wireless internet is not working as it should, no capability to connect via iPhone and iPad (did not try the laptop).There is a nice terrace on the 8th floor, from where one can admire the sea while sipping on a sangria, but it's not that spacious.The rooms are clean, but have laminate on the floor, and I really like the carpet feel.Overall a nice hotel, but it's worth only with some discounts [...].

Barcelona>Madrid for sure!
Comfortel Barcelona great value
The hotel was about 3 blocks from the beach, great location right next to ¨la rambla¨which basically just has a bunch of shops and tasty places to eat. Room was a good size, spacious and very modern. Only downfall was that you´re about a 45 min walk from the city center where all the tours start however, theres a metro about a block or 2 away from the hotel and its only a few stops to get to the center. Id definately stay there again, esp with the price.

Taxis are abundent and parked outside every corner...i made the mistake of using taxis everywhere i went and it became costly. definately look into getting a metro card and taking the subway into the city center. MUCH CHEAPER, but if it´s nice out and you feel like walking back from the city center, itll take you about 45 min but its a nice walk and you pass a lot of touristic sites.
