Negative: I often choose Travelodge as they are standard for limited budget traveler. But Travelodge in Poblenou is under standard. The room is outdate, and the hallway is dirty and smelly. Their next building is renovating so people make noise from 8am while guests come back at night very late to enjoy Barcelona at night have to wake up at 8am the next day the is terrible experience. One lift is out of order for 2 days. The Hotel just say sorry….
There are a homeless group living permanently one block away the hotel.
Positive: friendly, helpful staff.
To hotel: You can learn from Premier Inn hotel group, they don’t need to clean rooms every day, any guest who wants to have room clean can inform the receptionist one day in advance. that save a lot of cost and laundry expenses and some travelers nowadays don’t need room cleaned everyday to save trees
