Worth weighing

- Check-out ends at noon — Check-out is from 07:00 to 12:00, which may be early for late risers or those with afternoon flights.

8.5Verified guest“We loved our time here. The desk staff were very helpful, making reservations for a flamenco evening and recommending an excellent nearby tapas restaurant. Secure underground parking cost €28 per night but was worth it. We took the city bus tours to see Gaudí's work – great experience. Driving in and out of the city was easier than feared.”
