Situated is reasonable but a fair walk from Rambles. Plenty of restaurants and things to do. Room was standard and the shower was at end of bed. When you got out of shower it was onto a step - sideways then down. If you wear glasses you are in danger zone here. All bathroom & toilet area done out in... more

Stayed here one night. Very nice and helpful young people at the front desk. We had two rooms on the first floor, but the elevator did not stop there - only from the second floor and up - so we had to drag our luggagge up a stair. They offered to help us if we needed, but we are healthy... more

Don't expect luxurious amenities, but do expect friendly service (they tried for weeks before we arrived to book a reservation for us at a popular restaurant), funky decor and the best location in the Born district. Great value! more

I visted this hotel last week to find out what the fuss was about , I have to say the place has a great vibe to it, like another review said it could use a bit of paint, but the common areas are amazing. The guy at the front desk was cool but the resto/bar will be closed for renovations... more

I highly recommend this hotel to anyone. It is very unique and we felt very welcomed from the moment we walked in. It is also in a great location. My friend and I stayed there while in Barcelona and not only was it very modern and clean but the service was amazing. Gustavo who works at the front desk was... more

I like how they tooks this old building and kept the cool old feature and made the rest modern. The rooms are very pretty. We were in the back of the hotel and had a small balconey. It was quieter there. My sister had a room on the street and it was a little noiser. It's very close to the... more

This hotel was really unique; cool old building w/lots of character, modern amenities and decor, good location. Our room faced the street and we had a nice small balcony w/large shuttered doors. It was a little loud when the doors were open, but quiet and peaceful when the doors were closed and the light blocking shade was down. There was... more

The hotel is very beautiful. I loved the decor and the room was lovely but there are a few things I didn't like: there is no room to put suitcases and no closet (there is a place with two hangers) and the whole interior needs a coat of paint. Everything is white so it is easy to see that in... more

Cannot tell you how good the location is within spitting distance of everything including the beach. hotel does what it says on the tin i loved the chill out room with very large sofas and internet. only downside if you can call it one is that the floors in the hallway are hard so you hear people walking sometimes but... more

The hotel is in a great location in the Born area. It has a unique charme and I was really impressed by the design, it is very stylish and contemporary. Not so many extra facilities but it is a little price to pay for staying in a quite original hotel. Rooms are spacious with all glass showers and wooden floors.... more
