Guest House in an antique building just 200 meters from the harbour with the old fishermen style of last centuries. Facilities are totally refurbished, but you still enjoy high ceilings and typical windows, as well as an original main entrance to the building.

You will have sheets and linen included in the price. We clean all the common areas daily, so even if the bathroom is shared you are sure it's clean. The place is really comfortable and clean and you will have a real home feeling.

We have a person living on site, so she will be attending you whenever you need help.

There is Wi-Fi connection for free.

You can use the fridge.

You can use the microwave.

We're sorry, but you cannot use the kitchen for cooking.

Accommodation Information

We have 3 rooms.

Room 01: is a great double room. It has one queen bed and a little balcony to the street.

Room 02: is a double with a queen bed and a big wardrobe.

Room 03: is a twin room, with two bunks that can be converted in two beds

Note that we are not a Hotel or a Hostel, but a Guest House. Once you arrive to General Castaños street number 4, you will see an entrance to a normal building. Locate the intercom and press button saying 'Pral 2'. We recommend you that once you get out from the Metro exit at Barceloneta (Barceloneta stop of the L4, which is the yellow line), please call us and we will be picking you up from the Metro exit. That will be 2 minutes and you won't have any problem to get lost.

For those purposes, it's very important that you will be sending us by email any change or update in your estimated time of arrival.

Guest Reviews

This is a Trusted Review. Why?

Positive: Location & access to restaurants/public transportation

Negative: - No heating in the room (we were freezing overnight - in November)
- Moldy butter with a much too small breakfast (NO cereal or similar - only 1 MINI muffin & some MINI salty bread)
- The rooms had virtually no character (empty white walls)
- The owner was sitting in the shared living room 24-7 watching the TV - no communication with the guests (but it discouraged us to go in their)
- The flat smelled of hot food most of the time as the owner kept on frying his meals.

Conclusion: We would not stay here again & would not recommend it to other travellers.
