I stayed here in April with my boyfriend for 3 nights and we had a great time. There are lockers in the rooms for bags and everything is very clean. The living room area had 2 computers, a kitchen and sofas which made it very cosy and feel like home! Every night they cooked a lovely meal for 2 euros... More

I highly recommend this hostel if you are travelling alown and looking to meet new people. I was a 22 year old female going on my first solo holiday. It is very easy to get from the airport to the hostel by bus and metro, and a great base for sightseeing. It's a short metro trip away from most of... More

I love this place. The staff is very welcoming, the rooms are clean, the shared bathrooms are kept spotless, and it's very easy to get to many sites either by walking or the metro and buses. Would definitely recommend staying here and will return next time I'm in Barcelona.

I got a great deal on this hostel, and it was close to near where my friends were staying. The hostel is down a mostly quiet side street. It is not well lit from the outside; you'll find it quite easily nonetheless. The staff were all very friendly to me. You must pay a 10 euro key deposit. I had... More

We showed up and after five minutes of the receptionist ruffling through papers, she told us we had no booking. I showed her the confirmation emails. She found her copy but noone had put it into their ledger.... More

Really helpful staff and great location, however very noisy from people standing outside the building all night and music playing very early in the morning. Would recommend for young party people but not for couples.

My friend and I booked 5 nights in this hostel about a week ago. They were welcoming and helpful from the second we arrived (at 4am after a delayed flight). The staff was always willing to go out of their way to help in any way they could; they told us where to find the best tapas for 1 euro,... More

Awesome place to stay. Had the best time here. The staff made such an effort which helped create the good vibe. They also had top recommendations for what to do/ where to eat etc. The pub crawls with other hostels created so many stories!!!. Great place to meet people and enjoy all that is Barcelona!!!!
