I thought the hostel was excellent - brilliant facilities and the location was also excellent for accessing everything we wanted to see. Unfortunately for us on the Friday night one of the other apartments was having a party and the noise was extremely loud

Wonderful friendly staff. Will definitely return. Clean and spacious rooms. Fully equipped kitchen and breakfast was good too. Only downside is that there was no lift so we had to carry our luggage up the stairs. Highly recommended

It's nice and informal, very friendly. However you have to ring the doorbell twice, once outside the building and once inside to enter the hostel. We had to wait for 10 minutes one time because the porter was smoking outside... For the rest its good. Location is super, 3min. walk to two metro... more It's nice and informal, very friendly. However you have to ring the doorbell twice, once outside the building and once inside to enter the hostel. We had to wait for 10 minutes one time because the porter was smoking outside... For the rest its good. Location is super, 3min. walk to two metro stations, 2 min. to the sea, 2min to the ramblas, and 1 to the gothic area!! Free internet's nice! and also the breakfast, which we thought was not included, but is.close

The hostel was nice but we thought that for 60€ per night there could have been more: It was said that there's a buffet for breakfast but we had to made it on our own.

The bathrooms were very clean and cleaned everyday. Breakfast was filling and right in your kitchen which was convenient. The only thing is you can't lock your own door at night when your asleep. But we didn't have any problems with anything. Security was excellent. Good experience overall!close

Great location! Make sure you take a map though as you need to cross La Ramblas before you get to the street (we didn't think that was clear from the directions). Friendly staff, our room was right next to reception though so could hear alot of the talking, but it's a hostel so I guess noise is...

It may be called the premer floor but I don't care. You still have to go up two flights which means it is on the second floor. That would be very helpful when finding the place!close

Not easy to spot from the street, because it doesn´t look like a hostel. Rooms very basic. Securitywise the roomdoor wasnt the best, only a badlock. Location good near la Rambla.

The hostal was amazing. We stayed in a three person room with a shared bathroom. The rooms and bathroom were clean and the staff very helpful. The breakfast was just toast, cereal and coffee but it could fill someone up for a few hours. Would recomend this hostal to everyone

Von unserem Zimmer waren wir leider etwas enttäuscht, da es gegenüber den andern verfügbaren Zimmern sehr klein und ohne Schrank, Nachttischleuchte o.ä. war. Die Preise jedoch gleich sind.

Hi!! Location of this hostel is exscelent because it is about 300m from Columbus monument where the most interesting street is begining (rambla str). For me every thing was fine but I slep there only because in Barcelona is to many things to see so I did not waste a time to siting inside.
