Hostal Lami

It's good value for money, relative to the sky high prices in the center of Barcelona. It's a bit of a way out of the center, but that's no problem. Barcelona has an excellent unified public transport system. A travel card can be bought which allows the use of the underground metro, tram and bus services. The hotel is thus just half an hour or from the city center by public transport. Another plus of the location is it's position halfway between the city center and the airport. Easy and fast access over a short and uncongested distance. The hotel itself is new and modern, and very clean. A continental buffet breakfast can be bought for 6 Euros - great value, with a nice variety of items to choose from.

Everything was very good. Rooms are clean and are cleaned daily. They were a bit small, but you don't actually need bigger rooms than this, so it's a plus. The location was really great, they always had parking spots, connection to the city was good... All in all, a very good and positive experience.

Hostal Lami has a good location, out of the very busy and noisy city center. Nearby, there are a lot of restaurants for tapas, pizza and other food. Area is more calm and relaxed, yet not that far from the city center. I was traveling with a bicycle and the staff was very helpful to store the bike at a special storage room, which was locked ensuring the high level of security.

The property is well-located for not actually being in Barcelona, perhaps five minutes on foot from the tram which itself is directly connected to the metro. The property seems brand-new and seems to deserve the title of "hotel" instead of "hostel". Everything seemed spotlessly clean, the bed was reasonably comfy (not amazing, but good enough), and the in-room TV was of a generous size. Noise was not an issue. The staff were friendly. There was an in-shower dispenser of foam hair/body cleaner which worked well enough. The sink was in the room but outside the bathroom, which was a smart way to maximize usable space. The breakfast buffet was reasonably priced at €6 given the selection and convenience, but if you want the real Barcelona experience then go to any of the many nearby cafés instead and order a croissant or bikini (toasted ham and cheese sandwich) and café con leche (coffee with milk) for roughly €4.50.

It was very clean, simple. The beds, linens a d pillows were really comfortable. It was much nicer than many 3-star hotels I’ve been to. The facilities: lounge, 25-hr pantry were great. Super helpful, friendly staff. I loved the neighbourhood. It was really nice to enjoy the shops and cafes after the end of a day in central Barcelona.
