We stayed at the BW Dante for 5 nights. The neighborhood is definitely not a touristy area, but a 10 minute walk gets you to the Passeig Gracia, stores, and metro. Our room, #710, has twin beds, firm mattress with 2 large pillows, hot shower with a tub, safe, fridge (with items to buy). The view is of other buildings and their terraces; very quiet. The breakfast has a variety of items, more than enough to satisfy everyone. To the left of the hotel (upon exiting), is a mini market, to the right is a bank and larger market, Ninot is upstairs, a supermarket is downstairs. The reception desk is very helpful with suggestions of places to eat and directions.
