Great product and service for travelers in Spain. I had wonderful 4G reception in virtually all…read morelocations. This included Barcelona, Madrid and Tenerife. Picked up the mobile hotspot easily from the Barcelona Airport and dropped it off just as easily at a mailbox in the Madrid Airport. 6.99€ per day for unlimited internet bandwidth shareable amongst multiple devices is hard to beat. It definitely beats the $10 per day that my carrier charges. Seeing how connected we are these days and how dependent we are on our smartphones for directions, communication & reviews, picking up a mobile hotspot is a no-brainer. I had a great experience with Wifivox.

I will never...ever...ever travel without WiFi again. EVER…read more After my trip to Tokyo, I realized that constantly having a WiFi signal is crucial to the success of my vacations. So when we booked our trip to Barcelona I immediately looked for folks that offered a pocket WiFi. Wifivox seems to be the leader in the industry - and I can see why. It was about €48 euros for 5 days of unlimited internet. ALWAYS had a super strong signal, even when traveling on Metro - and went to Monserrat and Figueres and still had great signal. Used the WiFi to get directions (THIS IS THE BEST), search nearby for recommendations on Yelp (DUH), keep in contact with family, post photos to Facebook to make all my friends jealous (duh), browse the web on long train rides...and everything else you do when you are on WiFi. The top two - getting directions and searching Yelp - are SO crucial to having a good time on vacation - at least for me. On our last day in Spain we had a 24 hour connection in Madrid - with no portable WiFi. We made plans before we left the hotel WiFi and when we arrived to the restaurant it was packed with no tables. AH, no worries, I'll just check for another restaurant. Oh wait...I can't. We ended up at a great place by doing the old "Let me peek at the menu and see how packed the places is as a good sign they are legit", but it would of been great to search nearby. Direction were also tough. While Google maps is viewable, it's so much better to have it live and it's telling you the direction you are traveling in (as to avoid going the wrong way a few blocks, till you catch your mistake) or having it map the fastest/easiest route for you. The batteries lasted us a long time - and we were able to charge it on the go when we needed to. The device and charger are super lightweight and easy to carry around. The process of getting/returning the device is super easy. You rent it online and can have have it delivered to your hotel. Pick it up at check in - and then send it back with a prepaid envelope at the end of your trip. That's it! Do it next time you are traveling abroad - I know I always will.

i was stumbling around the neighborhood looking for a friendly place for one. down a dark little…read moreside street, i came across this place. i fell inside and met the nicest, earthiest waiter in the world. thank goodness, a place in barcelona where i felt like i could finally become a regular. if i lived here. if for no other reason than that man. if the chef's compliment with my glass of rioja is (was) any indication of the meal to came (that came) i am (was) in for a real treat. you could taste all of the ingredients of the spread (iberico, garlic, spinach and pine nuts) so vividly upon your first bite. but it was the second i took a sip of my wine that all of the colors of each flavor exploded in my mouth. heaven. smart, culinary heaven. now, for the record, the tosta (what this place is apparently known for) was basically just average bar food. oh well. so much for that exciting build up. i'll have twenty of my amuse bouche, please. now, when i say average bar food, i mean average bar food for new york, which is still much better than most of the average bar food that i had while in barcelona. sorry barca. you have so much going for you, but not every day bar food. this place feels like the birth place of new orleans. there is a black and white mural of creatures in trees, bird cages, whimsical buildings like a pop-up carnival town straight out of dr. suess and of course, skeleton heads on poles. i say of course to this last part, because it was my first hint of the voodoo on my tongue as i took my seat inside. then, as if the mural was coming to life in the room around me, branches protruded off the wall and were coming out of the ceiling in front of the bar. bird cages hung from the ceiling, melted candles replaced with lit candles on top of more melted candles were scattered throughout. trinkets littered shelves. the space was all brick and wood older than life itself with painted tiles subtly sprinkled in the floor. pinnochio sat in one bird cage. keys hung from the ceiling. i was in love with the place and missing new orleans, but experiencing its spanish heritage for real. i could go on and on... in the end, my new husband (waiter for the evening) left early, and i was left with a rather inattentive woman who was more excited by her phone than her job. alas, back to the rest of the service i've experienced in barcelona. but i still love this place and would come back often. if only for that man to greet me in the same way every time i walked through the door.
