One of the locations for Brunch and cake is a 10 min walk! The tapas bar across the street - Madrid-Barcelona Tapas is delish! If you go up the street and make a right on Passeig de Gracia, there's another local tapas spot with some of my favorite food. Vivo tapas for something a little more upscale. This hotel is like a 20 minute walk from Las Ramblas, and there are Doner kebabs which are cheap and life changing + delish!

The easiest way is probably a cab, We picked up one right outside the airport and the hotel booked one for us for the way back. Traffic can be very busy so make sure you have the correct address for the hotel as this will ensure that the cab driver takes the quickest route. Costs between 25 and 30 euro's each way for cab so not a cheap option but least stressful with family I guess.

Hi. I loved Room Mate Anna, but have never been to Sixtytwo. At RMA we just had a room that I BELIEVE was not the cheapest offered on the booking site I used, but maybe the next option up. I loved it, although the room was not huge. I don't know what kind of room or rooms you need for 4 people, though, so maybe it doesn't matter. All else about the room was great - loved the Asian red look to the room, toiletries were amusing, tiny balcony (from which I took pictures of Gaudi's Casa Batllo), bathroom was reasonably large, lots of hot water for showers, bed was quite comfortable. Had a hot pot - be careful, it heats up REALLY fast, as those things do, I didn't know yet. You don't want to blow a fuse or have the thing boil over. Location was good, plenty around for food, shopping, commuter train nearby, buses. I don't remember if there was a roof top pool, and whether it was open, but this was the dead of winter, so that wasn't important to me. We didn't eat breakfast there, so can't comment on that. There are a couple fast food places nearby, though, so if nothing else, you could eat at one of them and save money. We don't like paying for hotel breakfasts if there are plenty of options around a hotel. However, Rome (where we started our cruise), Barcelona and Madrid don't seem to be big on large breakfasts, so if your family wants those, you may want to pay for a hotel's breakfast. We were in BCN after a cruise; think we just took a cab to RMA (reasonable price). Then we went to Madrid the next day by train; loved our hotel there, but hotel has similar name, and we were dropped off at the wrong hotel, ugh. Apparently taxi drivers do that a lot. I also liked where I stayed in Rome a lot, too. Anyway, RMA is not cushy, but it's got character, a great location by some architecturally interesting buildings (unless you really want to be closer to the sights closer to the water), is very comfortable and reasonably priced. It's the kind of place I like.

Busses between AirPort and City Centre of Barcelona are Cheap, fast and convenient with a lot of Luggage room. From the Placa de Catalunya to Room Mate Anna is a straightforward welk about 5-10 min. Just walk up the Passeig de García units you pass Cassa Battlo, and turn right. The hotel is next to the Starbuck’s

I believe the rooftop pool opens in June. However when we were there in August the pool didnt open until like 2pm. The doors are locked. They said it was because they had to have an employee up there during open hours.
