Would return in a second
This hotel was about 2 blocks to metro and a little off the main drag. We were very happy with this as it allowed us to experience another area of town and not be in the heart of the tourist area. I would return to this hotel in a second and was really happy with the staff, location and how accessible everything was from the property.

NIce Boutique Hotel
The hotel was great, pretty close to a metro station although a long walk to Las Ramblas. On condition, the day we arrived there was a major leak from the shower on to the floor, but we called and were moved right away. Front desk was very friendly and they even rent out a labtop at no charge.

Great comfortable hotel but location could be better
Stayed here from 28th Sept 2009 for a week with my girlfriend. Choose hotel based on previous reviews which were pretty accurate. Pros: Hotel was in very good standard, lobby/lifts/hallways always clean. Rooms very good and cleaned daily. Inbetweem Urgell and Universitat metro stations. Beds very comfortable. Didn’t eat drink here as we were out each evening. Cons: Could do with more lighting in the bathroom especially near the shower. Rooms at the front face the busy ’Gran Via’ road. Choose back rooms if you are a light sleeper. Not as close to Ramblas as I expected (not the hotels fault), but as I was heading there everyday I wanted something closer. About 15 min walk to Ramblas cutting through Ravel area. Having walked around and seeing different areas I should have booked in the Barrio Gotico area. (Ravel area in between hotel and Ramblas made me keep an eye over my shoulder when I lost my way back late at night with my girlfriend). Overall: Cannot fault the hotel at all - I enjoyed my stay, just the location wasn’t what I wanted (my fault). Great hotel if you want that location/area. Just due to ’location’ I would not recommend to any friend as if you want to be confortable walkable distance to Ramblas you can get closer for the same price. Cannot fault hotel though.
If you’re just here for sightseeing, stay round the Barrio Gotico area or somewhere just off the ramblas. Mon/Tue/Weds is much quieter in Barca. Thur-Sun Barca is kicking! Don’t buy single fare tickets - buy the T-10 ticket at any station if you’re using metro/bus a few times, great value.
