Chic&Basic Tallers Hostal

The hotel is cute, the room is pretty small but comfortable. There is a 24 hour breakfast bar, you can have a snack at anytime you want. The front desk staff was very friendly and professional. What I didn’t like is the toilet right next to your bed but everything else was perfect. The location and is great for the price you pay.

We spent 5 days in Barcelona, following a cruise. It was very nice to have time to really explore the city. The hotel staff were most accommodating.

very small room .but basic and comfort .nice breakfast. hostel is good .

Stayed for one night in a single room as I had to be at the university. As the name suggests, it's basic. The chicness came in the form of nice toiletries, a music player and a complementary cotton tote bag. It is not a hotel, but 2 converted apartments on the 1st and 2nd floors of a residential building. The room itself was tiny and lacked a surface - desk/bedside cabinet - to put your things on. The 'bathroom' is not a separate room, but separated from the bed by means of a sliding door. The shower is good. I knew breakfast was a make it yourself affair in a communal kitchen in the 1st floor apartment. In theory, this should be fine. However a group of guests completely took over leaving nowhere for anyone else to sit. I was there early and one of the party was preparing breakfast for her entire group and she had already set the table for them long before they got up. On the plus side, the coffee was very good. Unfortunately that's all I managed to get for breakfast and I drank it standing. The staff are pleasant and the location was perfect for me. However, it was a bit expensive when compared to what else is available. My colleagues paid the same for double rooms in nearby 4 star hotels. Overall, it's exactly as described. If that's what you want, go for it. I have no complaints, but it just wasn't for me.

key pick up is a block away and was not mentioned when booking
