367307 1 Location 518928 Though situated in a great location west of Las Ramblas in the atmospheric Bari Gotic quarter this hotel has little else going for it.&nbsp; One filthy shared bathroom per floor, stifling smoke filled corridors, a ceiling fan that turns itself every half an hour and surely staff are some of Avinyo´s "atmospheric" features.&nbsp; The surprising thing is that this hotel was actually recommended by the <em>Western Europe Lonely Planet.&nbsp;</em>In a chapter that only features eleven cheap hotels for a city of 1.6 million I´m left wondering what the rest must be like!&nbsp; My recommendation for staying in Barcelona would be to get in early and shop around for something half decent. 2006-06-29T15:33:56-07:00 564133897 2006-06-29T17:00:00-07:00 0 -9223372036854775790 141280 1682741 367307 0 220584 0.0415759707352266 2006-06-28T17:00:00-07:00 Stub 25.0 2006-06-29T15:45:25-07:00 41064 0
