Hotel was well located, we could walk to many restaurants and attractions, for places further away we either used a taxi or an Uber. Buffet breakfast was not the best, we tried it both downstairs and on floor 10 executive level. We did not eat any other meals at the Barcelo so cannot comment. Many of the staff were very good and others were just average, our cleaning lady was great, front door staff just stand around and let people struggle with doors and luggage.
Nice to have laundry machines on floor 11, we did our own laundry for around $3.00 which was handy.
I found the building HVAC did not work great, so the room always felt damp/humid, even with AC running almost all day.
Elevators are brutally slow, and when the hotel is busy, there can be very long waits due to weight loads.
