Hello, friends!
The next budget accommodation I would like to describe is Hostal Mare Nostrum in Barcelona. You should pay attention to the fact that Hostal Mare Nostrum Barcelona is a hostal, not a hostel. That is very important to understand the difference between various terms used for accommodation in Barcelona to make the best accommodation choice. I have already written about that in one of my previous posts, but I suppose that it is not out of place to repeat once more that a Barcelona hostal and Barcelona hostel are totally different. A hostal is somewhat similar to a guest house or hotel, while a hostel is actually a youth hostel, the original Spanish name for which is Albergues Juveniles. Barcelona hostals are very similar to ordinary hotels and more or less resemble guest houses. Hostals in Barcelona can usually offer similar and sometimes even better apartments than some hotels within the same price range. Budget travelers should remember that usually Barcelona hostals are cheaper than Barcelona hotels offering similar amenities and services.
Hostal Mare Nostrum in Barcelona has almost everything what any traveler expects from a cheap Barcelona accommodation – comparatively cheap prices, very clean rooms, comfortable beds, friendly and attentive staff and location that could not be more central - right along La Ramblas, close to public transport (bus and underground) and close to most of the popular tourist spots - the Opera House, the market of La Boqueria, the Cathedral, Picasso’s Museum, Gothic Quarter, etc.
I had a very nice double room in Hostal Mare Nostrum Barcelona equipped with, air conditioning, satellite TV and telephone. My room was simple and small, but clean and cosy. My reservation included free buffet breakfast.
So, if you need a conveniently located base for exploring Barcelona and a cheap Barcelona accommodation to sleep than you should consider booking rooms in Hostal Mare Nostrum in Barcelona.
