Hostal Residencia Rembrant is conveniently located near Las Ramblas. If proximity to the action is important to you, the Rembrant should help you meet your goal. Located just one block from Barcelona's main drag, the medium-sized Rembrant is on the café- and boutique-loaded calle Puertaferrisa.
Every room at the Rembrant is different, with larger rooms perfect for groups. While the way that rooms are organized is a bit weird (for instance, a shower in the room but no sink or toilet to accompany it), about half have private baths and overall, the hostal is shipshape.
Though the Rembrant is near the metro, buses, shopping, and restaurants, it is a tad on the dark side. Late night merrymakers in the area may make things noisy, as well. Along Puertaferrisa and the Ramblas, the party rarely ceases. On the other hand, if you're planning to enjoy Barcelona's infamous nightlife scene, then the rowdy nature of the zone shouldn't bother you much—plus you'll be a few minutes' walk away from all sorts of bars and clubs that stay open into the wee hours of the morning.
The Rembrant has all the basics, including lockers, Internet, vending machines, and a small lounge. There is always someone available at the front desk, 24 hours a day. With some luck, Kamal, the good-natured and friendly owner, will be on duty during our next visit.
All-in-all, Rembrant is a good choice for those who want to take advantage of Barcelona's diverse club and party scene.
