    Small bathroom, very uncomfortable bed, light next to my bed wasnt working. when i left it took me 10min to open my locker that was stuck.. Reception not open 24/24 but its because of covid 19 (I think the hostel cant pay for the staff to be here 24/24). A lot of kids during my staying it was quiet noisy at night, kids running, baby crying and a couple having an argument in other bedrooms at 1am... I didnt sleep very well during my staying

    The staff at the reception was very helpful and gave me many advices about what to do in Barcelona + a map of the city with annotations. Bathroom for women and bathroom for men. Rooftop and living room are quiet nice places. It was warm in the hostel. Places to hang your clothes in the room.

    The upper bed is hard to climb up and the bathroom is too small. The room is fcking cold and I tell the receptionist to turn on the AC, she says she will do that and nothing change in the evening :).

    The kitchen is fine.

    The mattresses in beds were in a terrible condition, deep pockets, ups and downs in the foam. The lift was switched off at 10pm which is annoying to climb up the stairs to top floors.

    Generally, value for money, except for the bad condition of bed mattresses.

    We,re robbed in our room. We left our bag outside the locker for a couple of minutes, then when we came back, someone had opened the backpack.

    The girl whi welcomed us was very kind and friendly. She gave us a lot of information and support. Also, the location was very good, near to the historical area and subway

    Our room was leaking on the first day because of the rain. They changed the room for us on the next day. In general, the room is smaller than we thought and it's not comfortable if you stay in the full room

    Great location!!! The staffs are nice and helpful. The shared bathroom is quite clean.

    I didn't like much that the room had a lot of dust and so did the blankets and pillows which were a little dirty and in general the room was small for 6 people to live and the corridor was quite narrow.Another inconvenience was that there were only two bathrooms in our floor,one for the men and one for the women but they were very easily occupied so we had to go to the bathroom of the upper floor to use the bathroom.

    I liked the fact that they put us all the group of 6 people that we were travelling alltogether in a 6-bed dorm instead of an 8-bed dorm that we had booked at first. That gave us the space and comfort to be alltogether and feel safe. I also loved the location of the hostel which was near to metro station and also near to Las Ramblas and El Gotico and all the best restaurants for tapas, paella and take-away stores for pizza,sandwich or falafel.It was also very near to the vast majority of clubs and bars in Raval where you could access on foot and this was cool!😉The staff was extremely polite and helpful and very easygoing and that is true for both the people on the reception and for the cleaners that they were cleaning the shared spaces of hostel regularly every morning.

    Common area could be open until late (its a basement) and they closes at 11pm.

    Everything was as I read on the info section shen I was booking. Good location (near Rambla and port). Very nice room, terrace and common area + kitchen was very tidy. Strong wifi signal and security sistem in general in the hostel.

    Everything was great, nothing negative to say

    The kitchen in the hostel has everything you need to cook, in addition, there is a kind of rooftop terrace with some sofas to spend time with your friends. But the best thing was that I lost my key and they were so kind that they gave me a new one free of charge.

    The walls were very thin so at nights we could here the guests in the other room being rowdy. Rowdy bunch of boys. Also, wished there were at least three bathrooms on each floor.

    The location was great, located in a very convenient area. The staff was very friendly and helpful! I accidentally left my retainer when I checked out and they mailed it to me. Much appreciated!!!

    I didn't check before coming (so it was my fault) but the house main door and the entrance hall is too narrow for a sport pushchair (Thule) and then it is necessary to climb to the first floor to get into the elevator. The kitchen cabinet had a hole into the house central shaft and there was a mouse inside with poops and also a few cockroaches running...

    Spacious rooms. Location close to La Rambla and La Boqueria.

    The air condition was WAY to cold and even after I asked the stuff to turn it down, it was still a freezer. I was colder in that night than on my whole 3 weeks trip of Europe! Now I feel sick. That is the biggest minus possible to get!

    Great location, nice and easy with lockers, 24/7 check in and check out. Definitely great for a night or two!
