Improvement
Compared to our last stay, this time had a much better room with view of the surroundings, was bigger and had a little balcony, too bad we could not enjoy it fully because were only 6 hours due to an early flight. Hope our next stay we get a similar room and have the time to enjoy it.

10-15 minutes walk to bus and metro station Sant Boi. Rooms were clean(ed) every day during our 2 night weekend stay. Helpfull staff. There was a wedding during our stay and some noise disturbance after midnight. Not sure if that was from the wedding or just loud hotel guests.

Do not stay here if you are put in a lower level floor (Floor 1). It is appalling. The rooms smell of smoke and chemicals to mask the smoke, the bath tubs are rusty and the “garden” is not as advertised. We were placed in room 206 after complaining at the front desk and I am convinced it is one of the only decent rooms in the place. Literally only go for rooms in the 2 or 3 floor or LEAVE—not worth the cheapness.

It was an average experience. The staff were friendly and happy to support. My room was cleaned most if not all days. There were a limited amount of available irons. At the time I had to wait for one to become available. There were no options for an ironing board or any areas where one was available from what I was informed. I don't believe there were any areas for washing machines either. My shower had no curtain or door to prevent water leaks.

Old facilities, Top of the hill, Clean
Please be attention the hotel is located at the top of the hill, if you won't drive, please consider. The hotel is very old, but overall is clean. The toilet has bad smell. Air conditioner working well. Shower water is good. The reception staffs are very nice and helpful. Breakfast is good, but the waiter is quite rude maybe he is too busy, as only one waiter there. Swimming pool is good and clean. There is no drinking water provided, you need to buy it yourself down the hill. No vending machine there.

The hotel was in a beautiful position on a walkable hill and had fantastic far reaching views across the city and looked even more amazing lit up at night! The hotel gardens, pool and seating areas were lovely and well cared for. The actual room we had was a great size with an en suite and private garden area which was lovely. The Room was clean , in fairness, could do with a little freshen up as some parts of paintwork were peeling off. My only complaint is that the safe didn’t work, although the staff did try , and initially the room smelled of stale cigarette smoke, not sure if from previous guest but once the garden door had been opened for a while it was ok, none of the bedding or curtains smelled smoky so must have been recent. We had breakfast on our last day, lovely outside dining area and food was varied and delicious. The hotel itself is on a hilltop overlooking Sant Boi town to one side and the old historic church and square on the other. Follow the church side down to the lovely square with bars and restaurants and the metro station which will take you all over Barcelona city. We had a lovely 5 day stay ans would definitely recommend this hotel!

Lovely to have air conditioning and a pool. Staff were helpful and pleasant and room was kept clean with plenty of towels and shower gels. The hotel is located on a hill so a bit of a climb if on foot but the views are well worth it! Metro and bus stop only 5 mins away along with restaurants and snack bars near the cinema and metro areas. Recommend buying an Hola travel pass to get around if you are here from abroad. Would definitely stay again. Please note that the building is a little tired, but it is an older building with historical interest.

Staff is very friendly & very accommodating. We had to switch flights at the last minute and showed up early in the morning. They had a room ready for us within a couple of hours, no problem. Very pretty property, obviously in the process of being updated. Awesome breakfast. Will definitely be staying here again.
