My stay at Alma Barcelona Gl was a mixed bag. While the hotel's design and ambiance were impressive, my experience was marred by some staff's service shortcomings. The stunning garden and fantastic breakfast were standout features that I truly enjoyed. Still, the inconsistent service left me with a feeling that there was room for improvement. 🌿🥐

My stay at Alma Barcelona was nothing short of excellent, with a fantastic location and excellent service from the staff. The ambiance was chic and modern, and I loved the complimentary amenities. However, I did find the lack of a full-length mirror in the room quite inconvenient, especially for getting ready. Overall, it's a great experience with just a minor hiccup.

I stayed in a spacious Executive Suite, and while the design was elegant, I found the lighting situation quite confusing. I often needed a flashlight to find things at night. Plus, the lack of soundproofing made it tough to sleep peacefully with the street noise.
