Am planning a trip to Barcelona for a week in October.

Am staying alone so am looking for affordable, safe, nice place to stay.
Just wondering if anybody heard of RESA? www.resa.es
There\'s this place called Campus del Mar Residence Hall - am thinking of staying there but before I book - would like to ask if anybody stayed there and would recommend it?
I am attending a conference in CCIB as well, so preferably will be easy to get there.

The prices between a hotel and hostels differ so much - is it really worth it to go for a hotel?
Very confused - would like to be near CCIB and yet would like it to be easy to walk around the places when i do some sightseeing later... any compromised recommendations?

Hi

I stayed in a hostel a couple of times off La Rambles and loved it. I was in walking distance to the beach, shopping and the sites. I would have a look for somewhere around that part. The area where I stayed also had restaurants with great food at reasonable prices.

I stayed for 5 days in Barca in a hostel in Las Ramblas which was quite close to the shopping area as well as Port Vell. It was very convenient, clean, and secure. Might be worth checking:

I was in Barcelona at this summer. At first I was nervous because I have never booked an apartment from internet. And also I did not know what I will receive. Contact persons were very kindly and helpful. I was lucky because I had a holiday with a group of friends. We rented an apartment in Arc de Triompf, in the center of Barcelona, because of well communicated. We did not need too much time to see all sightseeing. This apartment was well equipped, furnished and very clean. The important point is we could accommodate all together. I truly recommend this for everyone for having a best holiday.
