Hi latina0319!
Hostal San Remo is pretty well situated about 4 blocks from the Plaça Catalunya as you probably saw on
their website . The Plaça Catalunya is the located at the very top of Las Ramblas.
You can SEE a photo Hostal San Remo's address as well as on a map on the QDQ.com site
HERE . (oddly enough, the map portion of the QDQ.com site at the link above didn't work at the time of this message) From that QDQ.com link, you can walk left, right, etcetera and kind of take a virtual stroll through the neighborhood. This location, I would think, would be much less touristy - more residential.
When you called Rosa to make your reservation, did you speak to her in Spanish or English?
Have you, then, done a search of this forum using keywords
BARCELONA SAN REMO ? You might find some there but it would be great to get some
fresh reviews, of course.
Saludos, MadridMan
