Good clean hotel in a great location.
Great location, easy access despite late arrival. Some rooms close to reception can be noisy, but I had ear plugs so it was fine.

Practical, clean room, nothing for old people, no hotel no breakfast. But like every other accommodations they are misusing the demand. For 200 tit would be a 5*, for 300 a * for 350 a 3* and for 400 only 2*

Lovely room, a bit small but very functional with a great bathroom. Very thin walls so could hear people in other rooms which was disruptive

Cheap, amazing location, poor entrance and lift
The room itself was clean and modern. The entrance to the build wasn't easy to fine and they are on the top floor so you must use the lift. The loft was tiny, old, and didn't lol very safe. There were no pictures of the lift before booking, I think they should mention this before booking as was misleading.
The location was amazing, all in all it's not a bad place, but I personally wouldn't stay there again

Helping us get to our cruise when getting a taxi was a challenge due to the marathon.

Great place... at the beginning it is hard to find. Because it doesnt have an entrance like a hotel but when you go up... it is a great place.

I'm glad I read the reviews regarding the difficulty in finding the place as there is not a visible check-in desk from the front entrance. Yes, the elevator is small but not an issue for us. Two people at a time with luggage. If using the elevator, push the #3 button and take the elevator up. Step out of the elevator, go right and you will see the door with a sign and button on the wall. Push the button and the nice staff member will let you in.
We really enjoyed staying at Fontanella by BCN URBAN ROOMS. The staff was very friendly and our room was available upon arrival. The room was clean with very comfortable beds. We wanted to stay in a hotel that was walking distance to everything we needed and this was perfect. Lively and lovely city of Barcelona.
Thank you!

Small but comfortable and great location
The room was small but clean and the beds were comfortable. It was a somewhat difficult to find the office. Some signs and specific instructions would be helpful. But everything else was great. The location is very central and lots of attractions are easy to reach by walking.

Hotel room was very modern compared to the rest of the building. Its on the top floor and the foyer is a but sketchy. The location is awesome though, super close to the metro and airport shuttle and walkable distance to major sites
