Barcelona: lodging near the beach at Barceloneta? - 05/26/06 02:38 PM

Any suggestions? What about the apartments in Barceloneta offered by "Freestanza"- somebody seen the apartments or the area?
I also appreciate advice/information regarding other hotels (prefer the smaller ones) or hostels in the area between Barceloneta and Estacio Francia.Indeed-any information on that area will be received with thanks..

No suggestions? Ok, I have (almost)decided to stay in the La Ribera part of the city. A couple of hostals on the Avenida Marqués del Argentera near the train station Estacio Franca look interesting: Nuevo Colón and Orleans. Anybody who stayed there?
Anyway, it looks a perfect location as we want to do some beachlife now and then.The Cituadella park near by, as well as the Born district and the rest of the old town at the doorstep.
