The prices are very high. The facility is great particularly from a high floor with espectacular views of the sea and Barcelona. Breakfast was hard to get in the morning and had to wait to be seated But there are many bars and restaurants near by that we decided to use instead of waiting and dealing with the dart at the hotel to get service

Everything! The room views, trendy atmosphere and the spa were amazing
The only slight pain was you needed to take a taxi to get anywhere that wasn't the beach. At a minimum, taxi expenses were $30 a day.
