[BNM] Sonar festival hints and tips

[Adam Kemeny]

I'd add that central Barcelona is pretty flat so you may want to  
consider hiring a bike as it'd be a great way to see the city. There  
are city bikes that are shared amongst subscribing users but I think  
you may need to be a resident for them so it's definitely a city  
geared up for that kind of travel.

I stayed in this cheap and cheerful hotel when I went last year and,  
location-wise, it was really excellent. Basic but clean and safe too.
