Business politics of enterprise is awful, absence of professionalism among employees at high level, financial robbery during payment, - which is what happened to me and my colleague during check out - due to noncompliance with the Pre Invoice, disregard of the contract. This is to explain business politics of the hotel in a nutshell. Regrettably, they do not comply...

The Medium Abalon is not far from the Sagrada Familia and very close to a metro station. It´s a good starting point to discover Barcelona. The area is quite, however the rooms have very thin walls. Hope people in the next room are not too noisy if decide to stay at the Abalon! The room was quite small, cleaned every...

I spent one night at Medium Abalon in Barcelona. The location is good, it is very short walk from Hospital de Sant Pau (metro stop). The area is greenish and rather quiet but unfortunately the hotel is far from good. The room is a bit worn out but ok. The bigger problem was the smell (very strong smell of insecticide...

Two of my sisters and I travel to Europe every year and try to keep our trip as inexpensive as possible. After reading reviews of this hotel, decided the price was right and booked it. We had trouble finding it after getting off of the metro. Use the metro stop Hospital Sant Pau. It's a little out of the way,...

When I chose to stay at Medium Abalon I did it for a simple reason: it was the cheapest on the list! And it turned out to be a great choice, because the attendants were nice, the breakfast good, great location, free internet and vending machines. Highly recommended if you are looking for a inexpensive hotel with good localization... Plus,...

We stayed in the hotel for 3 nights. It's located close to a metro station, a street full of restaurants and shops (Avinguda de Gaudi) and within walking distance of the sagrada familia. The hotel offers free internet, which is nice. Our room and bathroom were clean and reasonably spacious. However, like has been said before, the walls are thin...
