We absolutely loved our stay at Uma Suites! Check-in and communication were great, and the staff were very kind, polite, and happy to answer all of our questions. The keyless rooms are really convenient; you can open the building door and your room from your phone or use a number code if your phone dies/no internet etc. The room itself was clean and perfectly comfortable for two people. The bed and pillows were very comfy, there was plenty of hanging closet and shelf space, and the bathroom towels were good quality too. The location was very central, so we were able to walk to many of the things we wanted to see, and if something was a bit farther away, there was a convenient metro stop near the hotel. Inside it was very quiet, much more peaceful than I had expected, so coming back to our room felt like a nice escape after a long day of touring the city. I would definitely stay here again!!

Super impressed with Sandra’s abilities to welcome us like we’re friends. She is the director/manager of the hotel and made sure everything was meeting our needs, and did this with such happiness. I will miss seeing her! She’s wonderful! The staff very nice, the breakfast was fresh & yummy each morning. I love the rooftop garden & the decor/style of the hotel. I want to stay there again! Highly recommend.

    Hostel is a few mins walk from Sants station. Easy to go to the city centre or airport by metro. The neighbourhood is quiet and not touristic, which I loved. Huge room with comfortable beds. It is not a party hostel, so if you want a quiet night's sleep, this is the perfect option. Everything seemed clean and nice. Friendly receptionists.

    Location good. Very friendly. Not cheap but good price compared to other properties in an expensive city for accommodation. Very very quiet (such that we had to unplug the mini fridge as there was no other noise to distract from its loud humming). Had been a little wary about staying in a hostel, although we had a private room. Concerns unfounded, and it was great.

    The hostel is right next to the train station - that's a great location. I liked the way the receptionist gave very straightforward instructions. Made me feel like he was briefing me into some sort of mission which I found quite funny :) also the patio was really quaint and climatic.

    Anita's apartment is on a beautiful little hill and has an amazing view. The apartment is cozy and comfortable, facing a big terrace. Anita and her husband are great hosts, they enjoy giving you background on the city and recommendations for activities during the amazing breakfast (be sure to book it!). It was so quiet we could sleep with open windows. I can only recommend this place for Barcelona visitors who want to get away from the busy center, but still be able to travel into town within 30min.

    The flat was very comfortable and clean. It is also in a great location, closed to a number of nice restaurants and the city centre. Stephan was also a great host, very responsive and friendly.
