Good location, close to shops, restaurants and public transportation.

However, this is not a hotel its run like a poor quality rbandb
we had no power for a day in a extremely hot day. Food in refrigerator went bad and no discount was offered considering the inconvenience of not having AC.
Room did not get cleaned for 2 days, no change of towels and or replenished of toiletry items took place.

The reception staff were helpful and professional throughout my stay. I experienced a few issues, including a blocked shower. I informed the receptionist, who contacted the manager, and the manager arranged for a plumber to resolve the problem. Once it was fixed, I cleaned the area myself, as this had not been addressed by the room cleaning staff.

The property appears to be more suitable for short stays and business travellers rather than families with children. There is no café or restaurant within the building, so late arrivals may need to purchase food before reaching the property.

During my stay, the bed sheets were not changed. There was also no “Do Not Disturb” sign available, meaning my room was accessible for cleaning at all time.

Interesting place. Great location and price. Rooms are nice and very clean and bright. Lot of lights. Good security. You need a code for the outside door and then you need your room card to open the door to the hall and then again for your room. Rooms are very basic but decent size. Everything looks new or remodeled. The biggest challenge is finding it. There is no outside sign. We had to go into a shop on the corner and ask. Basically it is just a big wooden door with a keypad entry next to Gino's Restaurant. There is a 24 hour front desk on the 2nd floor but it is pretty minimal and the attendant is not always there. There is a Taxi stand across the street by the Burger King which worked well for getting to Sagrada Familia in the Rain. Overall it was a pleasant stay and worked well for 2 days in Barcelona after a cruise.

The Building has no indication that it is a hotel. You wouldn't know it unless you know the address. There is no lobby as the hotel part of this building starts on the 4th floor. The absolute worst part was the elevator did not work, so had to carry 2 full bags up 4 floors. the our room was 1 more up on the 5th floor. this was a brutal walk up and down for older folks like us. Staff was nice, thankfully and the room was clean.

I had one of the worst experiences at Fontanella Green House, especially considering this was my final night before an early morning flight.

I specifically chose this place because it advertised having an elevator, which was important for us with luggage. However, the elevator had clearly been out of service for a long time, and we had to carry our bags up four floors. What made this worse was that the day before arrival, I was still instructed via message to use the elevator — while in reality, it was under full construction.

The situation inside the property was even more disappointing. Our room was located right next to the reception area, and there was constant loud noise from construction work — including drilling — as they were apparently trying to fix the elevator. This made it impossible to rest.

Throughout the night, there was also continuous noise from the reception area, with people talking loudly and frequent disturbances from guests coming and going. There was absolutely no sound insulation, and every noise carried directly into the room.

Since we had to wake up at 6 AM for our flight, getting proper rest was essential, but this stay made that impossible.

This property is misleading in its listing and completely unsuitable for anyone who values rest, especially before an early flight. I would not recommend staying here.

They texted the day before asking when I was coming. I said approximately 9:30, I need to drop off my luggage. No one said anything that the elevator was broke. I find out when I got there. To get up to them you have to walk up 4 flights of stairs. I am disabled. The only staff member on duty looked put out to carry my luggage up. He roughly bouncing them on the stairs. When I got upstairs and finished my registration I was exhausted. He then told me everything was good. I just needed to come back after 3 PM to pick up my key. I had asked when the elevator was going to be fixed, he said that afternoon. I climb down the 4 flights of stairs. I got souvenirs for my family. Had coffee close by and killed some time there. By the time 4 pm came around I walked past the vestibule and see that the elevator is still out of order. So I decided there would be no going out for dinner. I walked a block down the street to a supermarket and purchased a few things that could eat for my dinner. Then 4 flights of stairs again. Get my key and sit in my room for 16 hrs. At checkout still no elevator. Same guy from day before told me to have my taxi/Uber come up and get my luggage. I told him they don’t do that. He looked pissed, he had to carry my luggage. He dragged them down all four flights. I am very surprised I didn’t lose a wheel. He left my stuff at the street while I slowly came down and can’t see my stuff. NEVER AGAIN!!! Room was clean with Juliet balcony

You can’t beat the location, easy access to all the best areas Barcelona has to offer, we loved the most being close to the Gothic Quarter and to Parc de la Ciutadella(also the subway station just accross). The staff was a bit not welcoming (except for the night shift, he was great and very accommodating and helpful ) our room was being cleaned when we arrived and we have asked if we can check in earlier if possible, the person at front desk told us we can come back in an hour..hour and a half to check in, when we have returned- there was another person at front desk and he completely denied us to enter the room even though it was already cleaned and we have our key, he was quite rude and didn’t want to hear what the other person had said before and told us to come back after 3pm. (I guess you are getting what you’re paying for). The walls are thin, you can hear everything and rooms not big, but it was ok, since we were not staying this much in room except to sleep and shower. They have also painted rooms in white, so no more green. Location and convenience were the best.

⭐️⭐️⭐️☆☆ (5/10)
De kamer zag er op het eerste gezicht schoon uit, maar bij beter kijken lag er op verschillende plekken veel stof. Ook waren de handdoeken, die netjes opgerold leken alsof ze schoon waren, helaas voorzien van vlekken.

Het personeel achter de receptie was niet vriendelijk en maakte geen gastvrije indruk. Dat vonden wij erg jammer.

Een groot pluspunt was de airconditioning. Die werkte uitstekend en hield de kamer heerlijk koel, wat tijdens ons verblijf echt onmisbaar was.

We hadden een kamer met uitzicht geboekt en het uitzicht was inderdaad mooi. Wel viel het tegen dat er op de foto’s een tafeltje met stoeltjes op het balkon stond, terwijl ons balkon helemaal leeg was.

De schoonmaak was ook niet zoals verwacht. Tijdens ons verblijf werd alleen het bed opgemaakt en de prullenbak geleegd. De badkamer en het toilet werden niet schoongemaakt en we kregen ook geen schone handdoeken.

Het grootste pluspunt van dit hotel is de centrale ligging. Voor een stedentrip, waarbij je vooral de stad wilt ontdekken en weinig tijd op je hotelkamer doorbrengt, is dit hotel prima. Zoek je echter een hotel met goede service en een grondige schoonmaak, dan zou ik verder kijken.

The property was very easy to locate because we followed the instructions provided. Check-in was smooth, and the elevator was a unique and fun feature. We are accustomed to this style of elevator, but it was still a memorable experience.

The staff were fantastic and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. We especially appreciated being looked after so well when we arrived early. Their kindness and professionalism made a great first impression.

The room was quite small, but it was exactly what we needed for our stay. The air conditioning worked very well and kept the room nice and cool. The refrigerator was convenient, and the shower provided plenty of hot water. Everything was clean, comfortable, and functional.

One of the best features of this property is its location. It is very close to the Aerobús and within easy walking distance of many attractions, restaurants, and services. This made getting around the city extremely convenient.

Overall, this property provided excellent value for money. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, the staff were outstanding, and the location could not have been better. We would happily stay here again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a convenient and comfortable place to stay.

We have enjoyed staying in Barcelona at probably 20 different locations over the years and each one has served our purpose well.
