HOTEL REVIEWS
2 Single Person
Brazil, Aug 2008
Residence Australia was the best choice among all of my hotels during a trip on 9 different cities in Europe. The hotel has a great location, 1 quarter from Plaza Catalunya, one of Barcelona's main subway and tram station and at a walking distance from many of the city sights. The service is filled with simpaty, competence and kindness. The rooms are very spacious and clean. And all that for a very fair price. If there is a con in this hotel, it is the absence of courtines at the bathtube, so the bathroom floor will be wet after your shower, but that's pretty much it. The rooms are quiet and ideal for families and people who desire comfort.

This place is centrally located and run by very friendly people. It is small so noise from adjoining rooms is limited and shared baths are kept spotless. It is on a busy street so traffic noise is sometimes high, but the convenient location more than made up for that. The owner gave us great tips on sites to see and areas of the city to avoid. I highly recommend this hostel.

Nice place, but very noisy, can't receive any guest! No dobble glass windows! Be ready to use eardrops... Otherwise very well placed close to the Ramblas, big supermarket and all other shops.
