Stayed for 2 nights with a friend. I was severely disappointed with this hotel. The elevator is only for luggage?? Thank god we were only on the 3rd floor. Free internet access is only in their dinky little office. If you want to use it in your room you have to pay. The room we got was small and cramp,... more

I stayed here for 6 nights: 3 by myself in a single room and then 3 nights in a twin with a friend. First impressions of the Gat Xino were good; there was a nice clean and fresh smell when entering the premises. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful. While there is a lift/elevator there, it is not... more

We stayed here for three nights, the staff are friendly and there was no rush for us to leave at the end of the stay. The rooms could not be smaller if they tried but the beds were comfy, the rooms were cleaned every day and the shower was really good. If you are after somewhere cheap and only want... more

We stayed in Gat Xino for two nights. Friendly staff and nice, clean but basic rooms. Good shower. Our room (208) had a small outside terrace as well (would have been nice if there had been one or two chairs). No safe in the room but a small safe is available at reception (too small to put in a notebook... more

My friend and I decided to do a quick vaca (4 days) to Barcelona while we were visiting London for 10 days. Since we were on a budget, we found this hotel which is perfect for a place to sleep. Upon arrival, we were able to check into our room immediately. The room was very clean and contemporary. The shower... more

My husband and I stayed at this hotel for three nights. Walking there at 9 p.m. from the Las Ramblas metro stop, we were a bit nervous about safety. But once we checked in, saw the clean (though VERY small) room and realized the neighborhood was full of families, we were fine with being a little off the beaten path.... more

Over-priced for what is! The piped-in world music doesn't compensate for the hotel's flaws. A broken elevator allegedly going to be fixed any day, but if you check TripAdvisor you'll see it has been out for months. Suites have 1 double bed and a window. Don't know what the regular rooms look like. The staff is fine, and our bed... more

The GAT Xino is a pretty average hostal. The people there are very helpful and friendly and the building is very secure. The neighbourhood it is located in is a little bit sketchy but close enough to all the major tourist attractions in Barcelona and the metro. I am not sure, being a girl, I would walk around by myself... more

I hesitate to recommend this hostel/hotel as I think the experience varied too wildly between our large group, all of whom stayed at the hotel in 7 rooms. So I'll express my views and let others decide. The place was within convenient walking distance of La Rambla, particularly La Boqueria, but in a sketchy part of town. It wasn't Mugging... more
