There was no problem leaving our stuff in the room, and for the most part things were very quiet when we were trying to sleep. Great job guys, definitely will be going back.close

Really bad beds. If you are any bigger than about 1m85 you won't fit in the beds. Also you can feel the springs through the mattresses.

Although the location was fantastic and the staff very helpful, the hostel is very small and the 6 bed dorm we were put in was tiny! No space to put bags and only small lockers provided in the hallway. Also there were only 2 showers/2 toilets for the whole place.

This hostel is really a home away from home! Although the hostel is very small it brings everyone together. The location was fairly good, a two minute walk to the metro and a 15 walk to La Rumblas. The staff were amazing, especially Linda! Thanks you Sant Jordi for a brilliant hostel experience!

Room was a bit cramped for 6 people but the convenient location (5 minutes to aeroport bus, walking distance to Sagrada Familia and almost next to Las Ramblas) and staff more than make up for it. Big thanks to Linda and Pablo for making the stay enjoyable.

I stayed for one night and it was pretty lame. They have signs everywhere of what not to do, like a 20 euro cleaning fee for not putting away your dishes. I felt like I was in trouble the first 10 minutes I was there.

Good hostel, the doors for my first room was very poor, lock didnt work. Showers are smelly if someone has used the toilets in past few hours, which is disgusting. Good location by a ton of resteraunts and bars. Prague Sant Jordi was better.

The place was good, staff friendly. But we need to park the car and it was impossible; The car park was very expensive: 45eur/day. They say in the web you can park in the street,but it's blue area and it's kind of expensive: 5 eur for two hours. Not anymore.

Pretty mediocre hostel. Showed up, ring bell, no answer. Left on street until see guy on balcony above street, yell at him if he's staying at the hostel, he says yes and comes and lets me in. Then wait 2 hours for somebody to show up to work, pretty sullen dude. Place is OK, rooms a bit cramped,... more Pretty mediocre hostel. Showed up, ring bell, no answer.

Great place to go if you'ra a party animal :P Awsome location, almost everything is in a walking distance (and metro station is really close). Staff was nice and helpful (maybe except one guy, but who cares). I must agree with Yael- Linda made me feel just like at home! I hope I'll stay in this...

It is so cramped and dark. Few washing facilities and no privacy. If you are a party animal and like discussions at maximum decibels at 4am then this is the place for you. Some of the Staff were very helpful, others not so. Expensive for what it is.
