Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Small bathrooms — At least one guest noted the bathroom was very small. Given the compact size of the 7-room property, this may be a consideration for those who prefer more space.
  • No pets and no on-site smoking — The property does not allow pets and is non-smoking throughout. Guests travelling with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • No on-site parking mentioned — The listing does not specify parking availability. In a dense, historic area like El Born, street parking is likely limited and may be costly. Guests arriving by car should plan ahead.
