Spain Day 1- Barcelona

13 Oct 2019
Took Emirates and arrived at 1325hr.
There are few option to city centres, by bus, metro and train depend the location of accomodation.

Just follow the sign iin the airport.
Took L9 metro change to to L5 and alight at Verdaguer. (4.60eur).
It took about 50mins to reach city centre. But the hostel need to walk another 10mins upslope from the metro station.
Check-in YEAH BARCELONA HOSTEL
30.72eur p/night
This is a very popular hostel but location is not very ideal as compare to the other one I went.
They have ensuite bathroom but toilet and bath is one compartment, so anyone stay inside and locked, will have hard time waiting to use. Btw, the bathroom is quite dirty due during later day as there will be no cleaning throughout the day. Still prefer shared bathroom/ toilets.




There is a pool on the roof, more like a dipping pool.
Sagrada Familia
Still under construction when i was there.
Casa Mila


CERVECERIA CATALANA, recommended by gg.
Very crowded, try to avoid peak hours. I went there around 5pm and there are about 10ppl in front of me.

Pretty expensive than what I had in Madrid and other cities in Spain.
Average but probably one of the better ones in Barcelona.

Total bill: 17.35eur

Gambas al Ajillo
Not as good as expected.

Huevos Cabreaos
Casa Batllo 

Placa de Catalunya
From hostel took about 25mins walk to the centro. Basically almost every attraction will take about 20mins walk to reach so no an ideal location to stay in.
Arco de Triunfo
All the place by walking, from the Arco back to hostel another 23mins walk...
