There's absolutely nothing to worry about Jen. The problem I found only occurred when I entered the room - as it took a bit of time for the a/c to respond after I inserted the key into its little slot in the wall - i'm not sure what the technical word for this is

But bearing in mind the glorious weather BCN is enjoying at the moment, it did take almost an hour for the room temperature to drop from 30C to a comfortable 16C.
Its such a minor niggle - otherwise the hotel is wonderful and very easy to locate with the colourful (SwissRE wannabe

) Torre Agbar tower situated next door. Plus, there's a great shoe shop across the street.
