Staff were great, really helpful. Bathroom & room were clean. Shower good, air con kicked in when needed. Room was very tired though and in real need of a refurb. Bed was a double & not a King bed as advertised. Location good for most attractions but it's a noisy area which did disturb our sleep. Was a good value option for the money, luggage storage on our last day was great.

The localition is very nice but the property wasn't very well as the airconitioner were never working during our stay, a part of that we had to use a physical key when we used to go out in the nights sometimes was difficult to get in to the room. The shower wasnt working very well too and pillows very bad quality.

The hotel was nice and very clean. Price-performance hotel. 3 min. by walking to the La rambla street. The staff was very helpful. The room was very cold my first day, but when I told them, they fixed it immediately. Only negative thing, Wife is very poor... i sincerely recommend...

I’d give this hotel a solid A-. It was clean and had everything you could reasonably expect. The staff were very pleasant and I felt safe with their security from the bustle on the street. The only thing I didn’t understand was why the fridge was a “cooler”, not a real refrigerator. I would have appreciated the ability to keep take-away food fresh.

Friendly staff and conveniently placed in the center of town. If you are looking for a cheap hotel this is perfect. However, the room was small with not much space to put things eg bathroom and table in the room. The kettle never boiled the water, the hairdryer turned off halfway through drying my hair. The price was very fair but I would chose a bit more comfort next time I visit.

Overall the Alba Hotel useful because of its central location, superb staff and cleanliness. On the other hand, the "King" room we booked with Expedia turned out to be small with a short "Queen" size bed. And the room was on a noisy alley despite our reservation containing a note that we desired a quietly located room. The room rates we paid were too high compared to the afirementioned issues we encountered.
