Very handy having unlimited use to tea and coffee after returning from a long day in the city. Great location 2 minute walk off La Ramblas, surrounded by a few good bars. If possible try to avoid room 6 (our room), directly next to the kitchen which was convenient but the walls are paper thin and you could hear people coming and going all hours. Also on our last night the room above as playing quite loud music, also kept us awake.

Location, location, location. Noisy. Very noisy! People keep going to kitchen every hour of the night and don't respect other people rest. This happens every hour and our room was right next to the kitchen! Try to stay at the upper floor.

The girls from the reception are very kind and helpful. The location is great. The design is very cool and somehow compensates for other minor deficiencies of the room. The idea of the open kitchen, where you can go an pick yourself your breakfast, is wonderful. I'd sure recommend this hotel for a city trip. Cleanliness is a bit poor, looking up to the ventilation on the toilet ceiling was a bit disgusting. The toilet is not a separate room (at least in my M-size room) and, although you cannot see the one inside, it can be quite embarrassing for other senses.

I liked that the room and facilities were simple yet in good condition. What I loved the most was 24 hour kitchen access. Kitchen has a fridger and a coffee machine, and you can have free bottled water, juice, yogurt, fruits, cookies, serial, and some basic deli to make sandwiches. Of course it is not for us to take them, but at least you can have breakfast anytime and water anytime in hotel. I loved it. I arrived there very late around midnight, and I did not know that the receptionist works there only until 9 pm. You have to go to the other Chic & Basic hotel (Born) to pick up your keys if you can't make it by 9 pm. I had to take a cab to do that, so there was an unanticipated cost, but if you arrive during operating hours, there's nothing to worry about.

Unique advantage of this hotel is that you can have a bite at any time on hotel kitchen (free of charge): a ham, cheese, yogurt, juice, bread, oil, milk, coffee, tea. Room is so small, a toilet and a shower are in a room, literally, behind a partition that causes certain inconveniences. It is a usual apartment house in which 2 floors are occupied with hotel (the second and third floors). It was to hard to find this hotel despite presence of the navigator. I consider that the price is very overestimated, though in this disctrict of the city it is normal. In general, to live in Area Rambla not so logically, in my opinion, as it's too far from city sights.

Excellent location, couple of minutes for La Rambla (city centre). The idea of 24 hour breakfast is great, the muffins are irresistible :D. We had a size M room which is a bit tiny, but for our perpeous it was appropriate, which was walking around the city 24 hours. Room was well equipped, liked the style and feature of it (listening to music..).

A nice concept - a common area to have a coffee and a conversation with other guests, helpful staff, great location, good value for money. I would come back again! The toilets /shower not properly separated from the room - it was a bit strange, but not that bad..

The location was great. Close to the metro and 5 min away from La Rambla. The room was smaller than excepted for a "large room". There were two people working at the hostel, while one was very helpful, the other was not very nice at all. Our toilet stopped working one day and when we told her that her response was "sorry, people don´t work on sundays". That was the end of that. I would not recommend this place to others.

Good location, 24hr breakfast - help yourself to bread ham cheese cereal and juices from the fridge, use of kitchen but you have to prepare and clean up after yourself, free wifi and internet access, friendly staff. Our room was very small and poorly laid out tv and sink literally in the small space around the bed so you had to climb over the bed to get to either side of the room, shower and toilet in same small cubicle, tiled floor in need of tlc. If you stay here definitely opt for the larger rooms!

Por el precio que pagamos le faltan muchas comodidades.No tenia kit de baño ( cepillode dientes, peine...secador..). Todo muy sencillo y con pocos detalles a la relación calidad-precio. El desayuno continental nada de nada. Mucho jork-queso y poco más.

Unkompliziert, relaxt und schlicht - einfach gut. Für barcelonische Verhältnisse sehr ruhig, da in einer Nebenstraße gelegen. Mit 100 m von der Metrostation 'Universitat' (nördlichste Ecke von El Raval) und nur 5 Gehminuten vom Pl. Catalunya entfernt sehr zentral gelegen und ideal, um die Viertel El Raval aber auch Barri Gotic bis runter zum Yachthafen/Stadtstrand zu Fuß zu erkunden. Vor dem Hotel befinden sich drei kleine Bars/Restaurants. Hier werden neben Getränken kleine Snacks, Tappas und Pizzen unter freiem Himmel serviert. Das beste Essen/Wein von den Dreien hat das "Tallers 76". Sehr gut war auch die Art des Frühstücks - simple aber angenehm: Ein Kühlschrank mit Käse, Schinken, Marmelade, Butter, diverse Fruchtsäfte und Milch. Ein Obsttellter und etwas Kuchen. Zwei Kästen mit Brot und einen Toaster. Eine Kaffeemaschine (Einzelportionierung), Geschirr, Besteck und eine Geschirrspülmaschine. Fertig. Kommen und gehen wann man will. Auch Mittags, Nachmittags, Abends. Unkomplizierter Self-Service mit der Option, bei der Gelegenheit den ein oder anderen Hotelgast kennenzulernen. Nein. Das Hotel ist basic aber sehr gut. Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist kaum schlagbar. Ein Hinweis jedoch für Menschen, die sich ein Doppelzimmer teilen und sich vielleicht noch nicht so gut kennen: WC und Dusche sind stylish aber ebenfalls very basic (jedoch sehr sauber!) in die Zimmer integriert. Einer eventuell vorhandenen leicht erhöhten 'Schamgrenze' kann jedoch dadurch begegnet werden, indem wechselseitig einer von beiden jeweils etwas länger frühstückt oder schoneinmal den Tagesplan auf dem Platz vor dem Hotel zusammenstellt ... ;-)

Интересный дизйн отеля, завтраки 24 часа в сутки Совершенное несоответствие цена/качество. По своей сути - это обычный хостел, но за такие деньги можно снять хороший отель 3-4 звезды в Барселоне. Более того, не очень понравилась концепция душевой и туалета: с одной дверью, что крайне неудобно. Если бы я изначально знал о таких "удобствах", я бы сделал выбор в пользу другого отеля

Ottimo staff, le signorine che ti accolgono sono veramente molto gentili e disponibili a fornire tutte le informazioni. Pulizia dell hostal nella norma, buona colazione. Tutto sommato un buon hostal per chi non ha troppe esigenze, vicinissimo a plaza catalunia e alla fermata della metro universitat.Solo discutibile la scelta del bagno praticamente a vista in camera.

Posizionato strategicamente, questo significa potersi permettere di non usare I mezzi di trasporto pubblici. Bella l'idea di avere un frigo sempre pieno e sempre disponibile al suo utilizzo durante tutto il giorno e tutta la notte. Non pulitissimo. Bisogna adattarsi al micro bagno e già che c'erano un bidet lo avrei inserito nell'arredo....

Het ligt erg centraal en dichtbij metrostation. Geen stoel op de kamer, de douche was of te heet of te koud af te stellen, het ontbijt was wel aanwezig maar erg sober, het koffiezetapparaat werkte niet goed waardoor we geen lekkere koffie hadden, wifi werkte niet optimaal, het was niet heel erg schoon.

L'effet Design donné par le propriétaire ainsi que l'idée de l’accès au petit déjeuner et boissons h24. Le rapport Qualité-Prix.sa situation dans la ville idéalement placé entre la Place Universidad, la Catalunya, et les Ramblas. Tout prés d'un loueur de vélo, très pratique et de café et supérette au pied de l'hôtel. L'insonorisation entre chambre...Et malheureusement la dégradation rapide des matériaux Plinthe décollée, Joint douche & lavabo, Accessoires pour suspendre les vêtements qui commencent à s'arracher du mur. Nous sentons une bonne volonté du propriétaire au départ, mais les matériaux choisis de qualité relative, ainsi que leur installation pour une utilisation intensive par des voyageurs (peu scrupuleux) pâtissent très rapidement de dégradation...

Lo mejor la habitación, excepto el cuarto de baño minúsculo. El pèrsonal super amable, ya que el primer día nos dieron una habitaciín enana (por contra con un buen baño), pero no funcionaba la televisión y al día siguiente nos cambiaron a una mucho mejor, sin cobrarnos la diferencia de precio.- El precio es excesivo, hay hoteles de más categoría al mismo precio.-
