Estela Barcelona

The rooms facing the water have balconies, which is nice for the view and sounds of the ocean. Also, rooms have small kitchenettes and refrigerators, which are very dated, but functional.

A few things were unappealing: 1. Parking garage was 15€/night, really small, and disorganized. People were double parked (despite the hotel assigning one spot per person) making a small garage even trickier to navigate. There were no working buttons to exit the garage meaning you had to stop by the front desk and ask them to let you out before you leave. Minor issues added up and made cost annoying. 2. Rooms are fairly dated. Old furniture, old appliances, etc. A "double" bed was old school European style with two twins pushed together. More updated hotels have replaced these with true doubles or queens. 3. Location is somewhat far from main center of town where historical buildings, main beach, and restaurants are located. About a 15-20 min walk.
