MO HOUSE GOTIC

GO ANYWHERE ELSE. TOO expensive for what it really is. Negatif points : - Too noisy at night. Impossible to sleep peacefully. - TINY bedrooms, you can barely walk without bumping into your stuff. - COLD showers, that was my favorite part. - not ONE extra blanket for the night, in case you need. - "Last minute change" on the "tax value" and they wanted us to pay for that too. Positif points : - staff is nice (they can serve you tea) - You can drop your luggage before check in and get them after chek out. Conclusion : Save your money and your energy. Don't go.

I stayed in this "hotel" during Mobile World Congress 2024 and paid 220 EUR per night. In return, I received a room with almost no space, SHARED BATHROOMS, shared toilets, and so much noise that I couldn't get sleep the whole week. Shared bathrooms were not clear to me when making the reservation, and they asked for cash in advance: now I know why. Also one of the bathrooms went out of order during my stay so we had only 3 showers for the whole floor. In some of the bathrooms there is no shelf or hook so you have to put your staff onto the toilet seat... Some have only a hook, and in none there is a space within the shower cabin to place your washing sponge or similar. The walls were so thin, windows and door are old, each noise made me wake up until 5-6am in the morning. Which was actually good, because if you are not the first person entering the bathroom, you get a dirty shower with an already used floor towel. The ventilation is poor and the locks so old that in one bathroom, I almost got stuck. There are very steep stairs which makes it hard to handle a big suitcase. When I hung up my blazers I realised too late that the wall is marking off white. The only positive thing about this place is its location and the friendly staff. Probably it's much cheaper when there's no Congress and might be suitable for students. But otherwise I recommend to stay away from this place.

Accommodation is of a basic standard. That said, it is clean and tidy. The staff at reception were all very friendly and helpful. It is very poorly signposted - one small plate ( about 9 inches square ) beside an innocuous door. You need a pin number to get in. This is sent to you on the day of arrival, but the pin number advised by the property was incorrect. Undoubtedly though, the location is excellent. It is in the middle of the Gothic Quarter and is only a 2 minute walk from the Catedral De Barcelona and a 1 meeting walk from the Rambla.
