Surprised this place is still going.
It's called Hostal Benidorm not Hotel, 2 Star.
Did you check this before you booked, some good reviews but i love these quotes "One of the most terrible places ive ever stayed", "Never again" and "Worst experience ever".

Good luck anyway. |

I know your Wire fans but I thought I'd help out.
Just got back from Barca and I stayed in Kabul backpackers hostel. Its just off la Ramblas and its one of the best hostels I've ever stayed in. Dead central and its got a great atmosphere. If your up for a good time its a proper party hostel. Dead safe as well and only £20 a night. Plus it had Bradford vs Leeds on as I walked in despite being mostly Americans and Aussies staying there.
If your in Barca watch the prostitutes on La Ramblas, they've got a little trick where they try and entice you (by grabbing certain areas) but you manage to get past. Then though they pretend to chase after you and as they do so they've got a little move where they check your front and back pocket in one foul swoop. They'll especially be on the lookout for groups of lads.
Other than that cracking city, perfect for RL!

Yeah, if there was ever a tip for Barcelona thats it. Keep your hands in your pockets where you've got wallets/phones.

I've been told that Barca can be a bit costly, can anyone reccomend any bars/pubs/clubs on or near the ramblas that are pretty reasonable?

No such thing
Try the local places that are off the main roads. |
