This place was recommended by Lonely Planet and Let's Go and was terrible. Very loud, dirty, broken fixtures, and falsely labeled as a "Hostal" when the sign out front shows it is a "Pension" which in spain is one grade below. To their credit, we paid for 4 nights with a credit card, and after a terrible 1st night, they... more

The room was about the same as most 2 star places. The staff was friendly and helpfull, while they offered free internet in their lobby from 2 computers. In addition, they have an onsite washer and dryer, but doesn't seem to work that well (but comes with free soap). The location was definately quiet, but had to walk about 3... more

BEWARE! It's the worst place I've ever stayed in, hostel eden is incredibly dirty, grubby hideous and disgusting. The room wasnt very clean, mainly the bathroom. In each corner (room, bathroom, ceiling) was about 5cm coat of dirt and spider's web. There was filth everywhere, particulary in the bathroom: fungi between the tiles and bath NO SHOWER COURTAIN! (try to... more

Well for a hostel to call itself Eden was an understatement, yeah rite! The room was clearly a double at most but four of us were crammed in. Easy to find and close to almost everything we wanted to do and the check-in staff were pleasent but the hostel itself and decoration looked like it had come straight from a... more

Do not believe the reviews the guide books have of this place. They all seem to rate it as ok. This is not true. This place is the worst place I have ever stayed in. I have travelled extensively all over the world. This includes both western nations and 3rd world countries. I have stayed in everything from 5 star... more

For about £7 each per night (at the time) this was the first experience of staying in a hostel and it was good. Although it was very basic, we had an ensuite bathroom (which we didn't expect), a safe and a TV and we were very well located. It was an ideal place to crash. however, if you are looking... more

I agree with all the comnplaints below, the walls were very thin which makes everything very noisy. Couldn't sleep any longer dan 8 o clock, also because the beds were awful! The room was like 1,5 bij 1,5 meters, thank god it had a high cealing or I wouldn't survive! We missed our flight and had to stay another night.... more

We made last minute reservations not realizing that it was more difficult to get a good hotel reservation on a weekend. Hostal eden is a below average hostal with less than friendly workers. The walls are extremly thin so bring ear plugs or expect to be woken up whenever someone slams a door or has a conversation. There is a... more

We had booked a double room (with shared bathroom) for 40 Euros over the internet. After an 8 hour bus trip and having arrived in Barcelona at 11pm at night we were looking forward to relaxing in the room we had reserved at Hostal Eden. However, upon arrival we were told that there were no rooms available but they had... more

We booked a twin room with private bathroom for 4 nights. The first night we were put in a tiny room with bunk bed, no window and dirty shared bathroom. We asked for a full refund for the first night as we couldn't sleep due to the very hot night with no window, squeaky bed and noisy fan not to... more
