Guest Reviews

• REMY F. (4/5): - We were very disappointed with our bedding. Poor quality of mattresses & quilts. Breakfast is very basic. Cold coffee. Same each day. No choices Showers are ok but not high quality, gives off foul smell during the nights. Washrooms have no toiletries. Airconditioning needs constant adjustments. Tiny table in the room. Floors had a lot of dust, behind our beds were not clean. Found tissues, chopstics and dust balls under our beds from previous guests. Guests: - have access to common kitchen - can use common refrigerator - can use plates, glasses and cutlery (good quality) We would not revisit this hotel.
• NANCY (6/5): - The location was excellent, being close to both the subway and bus stops, with plenty of nearby restaurants and a very clean environment. The only drawback was the noise, as our room faced a busy street. Next time, I will ask for a room that does not face the street.
• 1tarunb (8/5): Nice location. Little improvements needed - Good location. Close to many imp.attractions ,tho off the din & bustle. But the quality of breakfast needs improvement- to include egg ,at least. The lady is excellent.But place ideally to be managed 24x7 by English speaking staff,especially for Taxi help
• Sumy (10/5): - Helpful staff
• Verified traveler (6/5): - The property was in an excellent location. At $350 per night there were no tissues in the bathroom. Breakfast was subpar. People at the desk were very helpful.
• Antony (10/5): - It was a lovely place to stay, though reception closes at 5.30pm so can be a bit tricky if you get there late. However, they do send the instructions which are clear. The continental breakfasts are good. The staff lovely and spoke English. My only problem was getting the TV to work, though I didn't really watch much. I would be happy to stay there again. Convenient walk to metro and eateries
• Lorelei (10/5): - A very quaint B&B. Locates right on Avenida Dusgonal. Everything you need is very close by and if nit transportation is right out your door. If you are a light sleeper I recommend esr plugs as it is located on a major road way. We had no issues. Staff were wonderful and very helpful.
• Brenda (10/5): - Very quaint hotel with a great breakfast and wonderful staff.
• Robert (8/5): - Difficult to find but well worth it. Very friendly and helpful staff. Good location. Our room was small but functional. We would have like more hooks to hang things.
• Roland (10/5): - Friendly and comfortable. Big fresh towels and nice beds with balcony, all with friendly host.
• Seungbin (8/5): - I have a late night flight but they told me that the luggages should have to be retrieved by 4:30 PM, since its front desk is closed by the time. Thus, I came to the airport 5 hours before the flight time rather than normal 2 hours. I felt my precious time is waisted. Avoid this B&B if you have a late night flight. Otherwise, this is a decent B&B, including nice breakfast and good central location.
• karen (10/5): - The location is perfect, close to everything....metro, bus, etc. Breakfast is good, its enough to start your day. Staff is very polite and helpful as well.
• Anne M (10/5): - Wonderful staff with lots of personalized attention. Great location
• SpoiledVacationers (8/5): Charming Boutique Hotel in a Prime Location - Charming Boutique Hotel in a Prime Location This petite boutique hotel in the heart of Barcelona is a hidden gem! With only 9 rooms, it offers an intimate bed and breakfast feel, perfect for those looking to stay in a central yet less touristy area. The location is fantastic—close to shops and restaurants, making it easy to explore the city. The customer service is top-notch; the staff goes above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. Breakfast is limited, but the freshly baked bread and croissants are a delightful treat. However, there are a couple of downsides. They have central AC wasn’t as cold as I would have liked, and the walls are thin, so you can really hear your neighbors. Despite these minor issues, this hotel is a great choice for those seeking a cozy and personalized experience in Barcelona.

• Kimberley (10/5): - The first time i stayed at a Bed and Breakfast. It was nice for a three night stay. Staff was friendly and helpful!!! My husband loved the breakfast!! Good okace to stay.
• trevorp295 (10/5): A Quirky Retreat - This is a wonderful boutique B&B in an old building on Av. Diagonal. Iron entry gates, Victorian 2 person lift, high ceilings, marble. Doesn’t get much better. Comfortable reception area with sofa and chair, honesty fridge with drinks so you mark down what you’ve taken. Coffee and Tea making, even a kitchen which you can buy your own food and cook in. This is communal but nice to have. The bedrooms some may feel are small but they were fine for us. The large bathroom with walk in shower was a welcome relief once you’ve been walking around Barcelona all day. Bed was very comfy and the air con was quiet and kept us cool. Breakfast is continental style. Cereal, toast, pastries, cheese and meats. The staff were excellent. Very welcoming and full of tips and guidance to make sure you make the most of your time here. I would definitely book here again.
• Denis (10/5): - Great hotel
• Brad (10/5): - Very nice, really large two bedrooms with kitchen and living room. Big porch.
• Myra (10/5): - It was small but quaint. Convenient to Las Ramblas and other tourist attractions
• Graham (8/5): - Basic rooms. #8 bathroom fan very noisy. Basic breakfast Staff very friendly and helpful
• hevdx (10/5): Excellent 👌 - Wonderful accommodation. Everything that you need as well as a kitchen which you can buy your own food to cook. Historical building in a perfect location for sight seeing with the tour bus stop just around the corner. Will definitely return here on our next trip to Barcelona x
• 438duniam (10/5): Great, highly recommended! - Everything was great. The staff, the room, the breakfast, the location and the building. I highly recommend staying there. The boutique is surrounded by shops, restaurants, cafes and bars..and most importantly but stations. Love it so much
• Fiona Joanne (10/5): - Greg and Lara were so helpful, particularly when we needed assistance with locations of attractions and directions on how to get to them. They were also very understanding when our flight was cancelled and we had to get a later flight. The breakfast was nice and plentiful. It was great to have breakfast there before we went out for the day.
• Nina (10/5): - Great location, welcoming staff.
• Maria (10/5): - We enjoyed our stay at this property. The staff was friendly and helpful including in planning our program, advising the places to visit, things to do. The kitchen with all necessary utensils and a frig also was a big plus. Also we like proximity to transportation and some landmarks. I would definitely recommend this cozy hotel to anyone.
• Gennis (6/5): - Room was very hot. Messaged them through Expedia and was told to wait to the next day for them to fix the vents. Apparently there is only one central A/C system. (They also need fans because it’s kept at 23c and some people like cooler rooms) So ruined the first day of vacation because nobody could sleep and we were all very tired the next day. Turns out the ceiling a/c vent was not opened in our room. Also breakfast was mediocre, just bread and ham and cheese with yogurt and some pieces of fruit. Shower temp was all over the place. Bed had a large uncomfortable dip in it that should be fixed. Probably would not stay there again because of those things. Decor was nice and good location. Smaller rooms but that’s to be expected based on location. Nice area with restaurants and shopping around. Convenient to public transportation for all the tourist spots. Loved the code entry so you don’t have to carry a keycard.
• Filomena (10/5): - I found the place charming and comfortable. The staff was wonderful, very friendly and helpful. There was a lovely breakfast. The location is not in the main tourist area but for me that was a plus. We walked to LaRambla and other points of interest easily. I would definitely return.
• Adventure65445811983 (10/5): Great stopping place! - This is a very sweet B & B. We had to leave early the next morning, so didn’t experience the breakfast. The beds were comfortable, the bathroom was adequate, and we never heard noise from the traffic or other guests.Lara from the front desk couldn’t be more helpful. There are plenty of places to eat nearby.
• Maggie (10/5): - Hosts of the property are super nice and doing their best to help. Many choices to dine in walkable distance. Very happy with our stay.
• mdyawn (6/5): Mediocre - Location is okay but it is very noisy from the street below. Also overpriced at $169 per night with a mediocre breakfast. Found a place up the street for considerably less and much nicer in all aspects.
• Nicola (10/5): - Building and decor was lovely. Outstanding staff who went over and above their normal duty.
• Marsha (10/5): Magic - Such warm people, Lara and Jose, always available or answer question and give advice. Cute little bed and breakfast
• sergiup09 (10/5): Everything you need in an elegant package - Being our first time in Barcelona, we made a lot of planning ahead and spent countless nights looking for the best price/comfort accommodation available and I believe we found it. We weren't looking to spend much time indoors so a bed and breakfast was the perfect option for us. The rooms were spacy and very elegant, and every door was secured with a keypad (and automatic locking), so we never had to worry about carrying keys around. The beds were comfortable and the room had really good air conditioning and a large shower. One of the best parts was the common kitchen where you can store/ cook whatever groceries you had from the supermarket (which there is also one luckily like 5 minutes away). The staff was incredibly friendly, and even looked after our bags for a few extra hours after check-out, as our flight was in the evening and we didn't want to carry luggage around all day. Overall we are very happy with the service received. Location wise, I'd say it is in a pretty good spot. Close bus stations, close to Casa Mila and Casa Battlo and close to a metro station that you can take to the airport. PS: The easiest way to find the location is to follow the street number. There is no big sign pointing you to where the entrance is, it is behind a metal gate which you access from the main street. Took us a few minutes to find it, so hopefully this advice will help someone else :)
• Celeste (10/5): - Umma Barcelona is the perfect place to stay while in Barcelona. It is conveniently located in a quiet section of the Diagonal, which is within walking distance of major tourist and shopping sites, including ground transportation. The Bread and Breakfast is unpretentious and simply lovely. It offers basic amenities, and the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable of the city. Both Lara and Alvaro were wonderful hosts and both my husband and I would definitely return and book a room for a future visit.
• 491ofirm (2/5): WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! - Lots of noise from the street and other rooms. I got two small beds that every night split. Sink was blocked every time you use the tap. Never ever book with booking as you’ll find yourself with a trap. I was told my ‘deal’ doesn’t include cleaning everyday, that meant towels, shower gel and even toilet paper that ran out! Imagine 6 days o same towels.. when asking the lady for cleaning she said the made had an issue and couldn’t come. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this place.
• Tom (10/5): - David was great! Can’t wait to return to spend time there.
• Explore02538112955 (10/5): Exactly what you need - For my husband and I, a hotel or boutique is a place to sleep and groom on. Umma provides exactly what we need. They have clean beds, friendly staff. It's not too chic nor too hostel looking. They also provide free breakfast which includes cereal, bread, and coffee. I won't complain if it's free right? :D Nonetheless, Umma Barcelona is also convenient location wise-- walking distance from restaurants and scenic spots.
• César (10/5): More than a B&B - Excellent concept. Customized attention and gentle persons taking care of us.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - We loved the location of the B&B as it was within walking distance of all the main sites but out of the craziness of the centre. The hosts Davide & Lara couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating and really helped to make our stay a great one. The tapas restaurant recommendations alone were superb.
• Emmilene (10/5): Umma Barcelona B&B - Best place to stay! - Our trip to Barcelona was amazing, and made even better by staying at Umma Bed & Breakfast. We were greeted by Lara and Davide, who made us feel so welcome, and went out of their way to make our stay so comfortable We miss them!! Thank you to you both for making our holiday trip so special. We look forward to returning again next year.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - I liked the staff. David was extremely helpful with information about local sites and how to get there. The female was pleasant and hospitable in serving our breakfast.
• Reginald (10/5): Wonderful host at our hidden gem - We loved our B n B in Barcelona. Just far enough away from the hustle and bustle but close to transport and a couple of steps to Bus stop 17 on the Hop on Hop off buss route. Our host David was so warm and welcoming. Felt at home instantly. He couldn’t do enough to make our stay memorable even walked us a few blocks away to a restaurant we had been looking for. Having the use of a kitchen and facilities was an added bonus. Room was stylish and comfortable. Would thoroughly recommend
• norafai (10/5): Clean and comfortable - We spent a nite at this hotel. Very clean and comfortable. Easy access to Hop on Hop off bus route/stop. David and Lara were such great hosts, made us felt welcomed. The elevator was also very cute! Would definitely come back to stay at Umma then next time we are in Barcelona! Thank you David and Lara!
• jodimcjodi (10/5): Good value in a nice neighborhood - The room is furnished with all the amenities one might need for a few nights in Barcelona. It is clean, in a nice neighborhood, and includes a hearty breakfast. Most impressively, when we checked in we were greeted personally and oriented to the city. Restaurant and sight-seeing recommendations were spot on! We felt more like guests in a fiend's house than in an inn. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip!
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Very wecoming and helpful staff ,very enjoyable city break would recomend David & Julia
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Services of a hotel but with personal warmth that makes you feel you’re visiting friends in their home.
• Jany (10/5): - Great place to stay. We loved the location. People were very friendly and helpful.
• amrit1986 (10/5): David and Lara are the nicest people I have met - Great stay at this very nice Bed and Breakfast, quite different from the regular hotels. David and Lara were excellent hosts guiding us through the city as well as recommending some lovely places for food and drinks. The breakfast was also nicely served and overall just loved the place and would highly recommend to others.
• Claudio1705 (10/5): Concert Trip to Barcelona - I can clearly recommend this wonderful Bed&Breakfast in the center of Barcelona. A good place to discover the city by food or public transportation. Best service starts before the trip and remains during the stay. I will definitely will come back. One of the best places I have ever stayed. The staff is taking care around the guest, which I even did not see in higher classed Hotels.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - This property is in a great location within walking distance to many attractions and the hop-on hop-off bus. David & Laura are very knowledgeable and arranged taxi service for us when we needed it. The breakfast is very plentiful with coffee, tea, oj, dry cereal, cheese, ham, and a very generous basket of pastries. We enjoyed our time at Umma!
• Vilma (10/5): - My stay was great...Lara and Davide were so helpful and friendly. The breakfast included wasn't so good, too much bread.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Outstanding personal service. Perfect location. Comfortable quiet room.
• KandyKane056 (10/5): Excellent location, bus stops right in front. Comfortable rooms. - We stayed in room 6 which overlooks a courtyard. During our stay and at night it was quiet, although occasionally we would hear some traffic noises and some alarms but nothing that can't be solved with earplugs. I did like having a code and not worrying about cards or keys. We were able to check in/out by ourselves since we arrived and left very early. The location of Umma is right on Diagonal Av. and it is a busy street. The bus stops right on front and it is a short walk to the subway. Great location, we were able to go everywhere we needed conveniently. The room was spacious for 2 people. We had room for our suitcases and were able to hang a few clothes on the hanger and put the rest on the dresses. The room also had a small table with 2 chairs as well. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was roomy. Everything was clean and our room was clean and restock every day if we needed. As someone mentioned, there is no fridge on your room. However, you can use the fridge (and microwave in the kitchen) and store your items there. We did and just labelled them. There are 2 grocery stores within walking distance so you can restock there. We bought some food in La Boqueria for dinner and reheated everything in the microwave for a cheap, delicious and filing dinner. For breakfast, it is a continental breakfast: toast, ham, cereal, oatmeal, yogurt, jelly, fruit, coffee, milk, tea and juice. We only had breakfast once but Lara made us a small breakfast bag to take with us for our early excursions. Lara was the best! So sweet and also giving us directions and suggestions on how to get there. She made our stay stress-free.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Great place and very convenient. - Enjoyed all aspects of our stay. Staff was accommodating and very helpful. Perfection would have been a little more variety in breakfast offerings, but it was still very good.
• holidayheadtraveller (10/5): What a find! - Loved everything about this Boutique B&B, but I must say Davide really made it and deserve special recognition for his exceptionally warm welcome and incredibly accommodating nature, nothing was too much trouble. The location is a little out of the hustle and bustle of the centre but the B&B has a bus stop immediately outside which was handy for Camp Nou and the metro location is located just down the road. I loved our French windows onto a lovely balcony too. Would definitely recommend this place, loved everything about it.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Davide was extraordinarily welcoming and nothing was clearly too much trouble. Great personal touches
• Verified traveler (8/5): - The hotel is in a great location and about a 25 minute taxi ride from the airport. The two members of staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. Our oi. m was right next to the breakfast area and room
• Angel (10/5): - It was amazing. Super clean and cozy. Easy to access. Loved the service. They both had answers to any question we had and if they didn’t know the answer they would take there time to help us. It’s in a great location with so many options for different busses, metro, and the major train station.
• Patrice (10/5): - Every door has a personalized code for privacy. They cooked breakfast every morning. Very clean! Offered wall ports to convert power, guests were super nice. GREAT LOCATION!!
• linnsay (10/5): Comfortable and Convenient - It was close to all the attractions. Comfortable and quiet. David was very helpful and friendly.
• Jennyjime (10/5): We love David and Lara! - We just came from our honeymoon in Europe and we stayed a few days at Umma, me and my husband were 100% satisfied with this beautiful and cozy hotel boutique. First both Lara and David were extremely helpful with indications and directions, the hotel was very clean, the breakfast included was a great option to have in our booking, and since it was our first time in Barcelona David and Lara gaves us all the information and recommendations we needed to know about the city. We couldn’t be happier with their service. Also the hotel is centrally located you can walk to Ramplas, take a bus or taxi to main places to visit.
• Paul (8/5): - We enjoyed our few days staying at Umma Barcelona. The excellent service given by the staff left a lasting impression on us and was greatly appreciated. For that reason, we would highly recommend staying at this B&B. Breakfast was freshly prepared every morning and set us up well for the day. Our one recommendation would be that the WiFi signal in the room we were staying in was intermittent, possibly due to distance from the router? A WiFi signal booster would definitely solve this. Thank you for what was a lovely stay and a great experience of Barcelona!
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Very helpful! Arranged for taxis, mice breakfast
• Adrian (10/5): I now know what a 5 star service is! - Lara and Davide were fantastic! I have really learnt what a genuine 5 star, genuine service is. Most of my 5’s would be 3’s and 4’s after the great time that my family and I had at the Umma Boutique B&B. Everyone person we met in Barcelona was so kind and helpful - we fell in love with the people and the City of Barcelona but it all started from the Umma Boutique B&B, highly recommended.
• Josephine (10/5): - A little gem, close to the centre. Lara was very welcoming and explained everything so well We would definitely stay here again
• Naeem (8/5): Nice B&B - Lara and Davide were extremely helpful. The hotel is clean and nicely decorated. The negatives are breakfast which is more than basic and secondly they dont have kettles in the rooms.
• Janet (10/5): - Lara was wonderful incredibly helpful. Beautiful room, great breakfast, great location.
• DEPV1984 (10/5): Incredible experience - I’ve never had such a wonderful experience as this one. Incredible service, supper friendly staff, they treated us as friends, not guests. The room was small but it was clean and hey, we just wanted a place to sleep. Breakfast was simple but delicious. The best thing was their location! Close to many things, right in front of the building is a bus stop a couple of blocks down is a subway station. Hands down the best place to stay in Barcelona.
• Mark (10/5): - I was a great and comfortable place to relax. I was very please with the service
• Shirley (10/5): THE place to stay. - Fantastic location. Very clean . Fantastic staff. Free breakfast .
• Amy (10/5): Amy - I HIGHLY recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Barcelona. The staff is amazing. Lara and Davide are amazing. The location is great. The bus is right outside the door and the metro is two blocks away. It’s practically in the heart of Barcelona. Can’t say enough for this place!
• Amy (10/5): Amy - Staff make the most money for things Lara and Davide I slept great hosts. I really enjoyed the beautiful breakfast every morning in alarms. When we make it smaller ones it today travel to other countries they were willing to hold our lo Great hosts. I really enjoyed the beautiful breakfast every morning and alarms. When we need it smaller ones today travel to other countries they were willing to hold our larger luggage in a safe room so that we did not have to haul that around. Another great point of this hotel is the location. Plus that is right outside the front door and the Metro is only about two blocks away, easy enough for us to roll our luggage too. I would recommend anyone visiting Barcelona I would recommend anyone visiting Barcelona
• edwina09 (10/5): Great Location & Amazing Service from Staff - My sister and I first visit to Barcelona, the day we arrived, was a national Holiday 9/11 - Diagonal Street was full of demonstrators so our transport from the airport dropped us a block to the Umma.. Lara was very helpful and even came down from the building to help us out with our luggage. The place is clean feels like home privately tucked inside an old historical building - great access to everything, buses, restaurant.. my sister and I can even walk around late at night,. David like Lara very accomodating helpful, gave us instructions how to take the train to Montserrat. He even served us breakfast even if not on time frame, he helped us with transportation esp, when our transport did not showed up when we checked out - got us a taxi in 5 min . What an excellent service, Our ten days stay in Umma is memorable . We will be back again for sure in the near future. -
• susantV7530WA (10/5): Umma was a wonderful place to stay - Located on Diagonal Ave it was easy to get to restaurants, public transportation and site seeing. The rooms were clean and comfortable with a nice breakfast each morning. The staff were very helpful with whatever activities you wanted to do.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Lovely stay - Lovely stay and great staff! It's at a nice and fancy neighborhood and easy transportation anywhere in the city...
• Denis (8/5): - Lara and Davide were very attentive to our needs; the room was comfortable and the antique elevator was a good reminder of the history of the building.
• Luis (8/5): - The staff was excellent, great location and clean. The only con was that the room has no view at all, it o my had a small window and I felt a little claustrophobic.
• Huwshell (10/5): Wonerful place close to main attractions - Right on the diagonal in a gorgeous old building this place was a great find. Davide and Lara were so helpful and informative and really made us all feel welcome. We were travelling with our 8 year old son and he was made to feel very at home. We were there during a heat wave and the air conditioning was excellent! Close to bus stops and a 10 minute walk to the nearest metro made getting around easy. The kitchen and nearby supermarket meant, if you wanted to you could prepare meals, but their advice on where to ear meant we had little need for it. We cannot recommend Umma B and B enough. They really made our holiday extra special, in and extraordinary city!
• Lori (10/5): - The hotel has 9 rooms and is run by a nice guy named David. The room was spacious and had a nice bathroom with a shower door! David makes a nice continental breakfast in the morning and is helpful to answer any questions. The location is pretty good. We took the regular bus and the hop on hop off bus both of which were located right outside. We enjoyed our stay.
• cigdem (10/5): - Davide is very frendly , the room is very nice and breakfast is great. the location is close to the downtown. The price is good if you think the other downtown hotels2prices
• Ryan (10/5): The nicest staff you will ever encounter - David and Laura, the staff that helped us, were the most friendly and helpful people you could imagine. I recommend Umma Bed and Breakfast to anyone traveling to Barcelona and will definitely stay here again in the future!
• Tariq (8/5): - Nice clean room in good condition and great area. A bit far from the metro but on the bus route. A/C could not be turned off which was terrible when sleeping. Front desk was great and very helpful. Breakfast needs upgrade. Overall good stay.
• Zhino (10/5): - The best staff very friendly and help full the room so good and very comfortable place thanks for every thing ....
• Verified traveler (10/5): Great B&B! - My daughter and I had an amazing stay at Umma. Everything was nice and clean. Check in and out were easy. Breakfast was delicious. The staff are wonderful. Only thing I wished the air con would have been able to get cooler. Great place to stay!
• Richard (10/5): Perfect Location - Perfect location. The hosts, Laura and David were very accommodating in giving us a lot of detailed information of places to see in Barcelona. They went overboard to make sure our stay comfortable
• Luis (10/5): AMAZING STAFF, CLEANLINESS AND LOCATION - My stay was FANTASTIC!! Davide and Lara were amazingly kind and helpful, the room quality and location was phenomenal. I will definitely reccomend and hopefully come back!
• Dave (8/5): Simple but comfortable, cosy hotel - Lovely place, no thrills but comfortable and pleasant. Street was noisy but that is not the hotels fault, it's in a city so expected!! Thank you for a lovely stay made even more special by the two reception staff, they really are a credit to you!!!
• Mark (8/5): Great location helpfull staff - We thoroughly enjoyed our five night stay at the Umma Barcelona B&B Boutique Hotel. Located on the 1st floor of one of Barcelona's beautiful old buildings we entered via the massive wrought iron front doors to find a beautiful old lift with iron and wooden doors. On the first floor we were greeted in 'reception' by Lara who was extremely welcoming and informative. Our room was large with a very large bed, the wardrobe was adequate and with the extra hangers we requested it coped very well although we did keep smaller items in our case. The super shower was very powerful and hot, the en suite was spacious.
• Brendan (8/5): Nice boutique B&B close to centre and attractions - We stayed her for 2 nights while visiting our niece. The hotel was boutique with a secure entrance and friendly staff on hand. Close to centre of Barcelona and in a good area. Overall this was a nice stay and wish we had longer as 2 days was not enough time to explore the city.
• Omer (8/5): Nice hotel in the middle of diagonal sreet - very cute hotel, compact. its really easy to get from there to the all attractions in barcelona because of the near bus stations. the breakfast is poor and don't offer much. there is kitchen for all the guests and you can make there food and sandwiches.
• We enjoy the stay (10/5): Excellent - Excellent
• Tracey (6/5): - Staff very friendly and the hotel is in a beautiful building, easy to find, no window in our bedroom just a doorway to a 'courtyard' view which wasn't a courtyard it was just the enclosed back alley with a vertical 20 metre view of dirty concrete, not nice. Bedrooms modern though and very clean, good shower. Continental breakfast served to the table or we could have had it in the room, the usual thing and very adequate to see you till lunchtime, good overall value and within easy walk to bars and restaurants.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - The staff is awesome! They were extremely accommodating and friendly. We were able to find amazing restaurants and local sights with their assistance.
• Richard (10/5): Very nice b&b - Good quiet location , easy to reach sights on foot , good restaurants and cafes are close with pleasant staff , Staff in the UMMA are all very pleasant and helpfull facilities are very good, a really nice place to stay.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - + good location right on the Avenida Diagonal short 5 min walk to metro/bus, ~20-30 min walk to Gothic Quarter/Old City,~45 min to beach or Sagrada Familia; staff was very friendly and helpful advising on sightseeing, directions. Very clean room and common spaces. Room bathroom was spotless with great water pressure and facilities. Breakfast is a rather nice continental breakfast with coffee/juice/pastries/yogurt/cheese/ham. Price was competitive for the high summer season compared to other places. - our specific standard room was smaller than most and just off the main entry/common spaces so some noise as guests entered/left; AC was not working great in this room as well so a bit warmer than common spaces
• Deidre (10/5): Comfy and Quiet - This is a cute bed and breakfast on a major avenue in Barcelona. The avenue is a bit out of the main area so it is quiet but there is a lot of shopping and it is easy to walk to everything or get a taxi. It is also on both the hop on hop off bus lines so that is also convenient for touristing. The breakfast is a lovely mix of breads, a bit of cheese and ham, yogurt, and cereals, along with coffee, tea, orange juice or other juice. My room did not have outside windows but I enjoyed the darkness. The bathroom is spacious and the bed was comfortable.
• Verified traveler (10/5): A hidden gem - Clean, comfortable, reasonably priced, great location, friendly and helpful staff - an all around excellent stay
• Carlos (10/5): Excelent personalize stay - Great we feel like home!
• William (10/5): Awesome stay! - I enjoyed my stay. The staff were friendly and. Dry helpful. They recommended very good places to eat and tour. Thank you!
