Tucked away on a pedestrian street in Barcelona’s hip El Born district, the five rooms at the budget-friendly Casa Marcelo Barcelona exude early 20th-century charm -- though note that only two have private bathrooms. Amazing shopping is just outside the hotel’s door while the Picasso Museum and the Barceloneta Metro station can be reached in less than 10 minutes on foot. Breakfast can be a bit light, but guests have access to the kitchen to store or prepare additional meals, and the shared balcony is a lovely place to relax and watch the street scene below. Those would prefer to stay in Eixample should consider the comparable Ana's Guest House B&B.
