I was so excited to join my husband on a trip to Barcelona, Spain, to celebrate our 19th wedding anniversary, even if we would only be there for a few days. Since we had such little time, I knew location was going to be super important. I also knew I wanted to stay in the Gothic Quarters, where we could explore the maze of cobblestone streets. The Barcelona Edition, which only opened a year ago, was the perfect hotel, and I’m thrilled I chose it for our stay.
While we were there, protests were going on in the city. In fact, one day there were 525,000 people involved in the protests. Although it was organized and safe throughout the day, at night there were cars burning in the street and fights between police and protesters. The hotel did a wonderful job caring about the safety of their guests. They placed extra security at the front door, and several times they placed notes in our room keeping us updated about what was going on. I am so thankful to the staff for making me feel completely safe during our time there.
