    I like to boast to my nearest and dearest that I've seen many portals to other dimensions over the years, and I'm happy to report that that was/is definitely one of them. Good work!

    In Barcelona (and throughout Catalonia) there is a coastal law that prohibits building less than X metres from the coast. The W hotel was built directly on the sea! In violation of this law and everything that surrounds it, the W hotel and the area around it has become an area for the nouveau riche who want to take a photo of themselves on Instagram so they can say ‘I was there’. Not to mention that it is built in the Barceloneta neighbourhood, a very run-down neighbourhood where at night you can have your watch or phone stolen and get stabbed for free.

    I hope staff at the W watch your video. They could easily deep clean the carpet twice a month and "buff" up the leather etc, especially for £2k a night! Love the views though. I also thought the W might have a spa as well as pools.

    Florida native here 🙋‍♂️. I have been all over the world thanks to many vacations with family. When going to a beach or tropical location there is ALWAYS a funny smell at seaside resorts regardless of pricing. They always seem to be more beat up than resorts in other environments for some reason as well (walls and furniture). I have heard it is caused by the salt water and salt water in the air. I live on the water and will confirm that items corrode much faster out here

    The “safety locks” on the balcony doors, is because the mgmt doesn’t want any drunken patrons “falling off” the balcony itself (remember, you’re only the 21st floor)!

    Cant believe your room/suite was not ready at 3pm & then it wasn't even cleaned properly when you finally got to your room 😮 positives were location & views from room / balcony but to honest for nearly £2000 a night you would expect at least someone to show you around the suite & explain where everything is & how it all operates!!

    A good trip around there- Thanks - super beach & pools.. The rooms amazing - yes I would have liked a ' hoover up ' while drinks on the balcony or at the infinity. Food looks great - think I would like to go there but so without the balcony. The Goudi building thing is awesome. Bless Badger.

  • @rob-time
    @rob-time 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    I hope that these hotels watch your channel and take care of the deficiencies that you point out.
    Not hoovering the carpet tells me that they aren't doing a full cleaning for the next guest. That grosses me out.

    Hi Tim,
    I would recommend a trip to Madeira and the Cliff Bay Hotel in Funchal.
    For the uk I’d recommend Barnsley house in the Cotswolds. You’d really enjoy both of them.

    Bless you Tim! It’s know to be a low quality 5 star hotel chain. And the location in the harbour area makes it anything but easy getting into town, as it’s along a boring harbour area.
    You should go Asia. That’s hotels worth staying at! Thanks for your video!
    I do hope you tried some of the real luxury hotels of Barcelona and see what the money would get you there, because £2000 is a lot for a room even in London or Paris
