    I slept only one night and had a good stay, but will review for future travelers to know what to expect fairly. The restricted time to use the kitchen facilities can be very limiting, even though I understand the reason for it as one of the staff members sleeps in the common area, it should not have an impact on how the guests can use it (to have access to the fridge early morning when checking out for example). It is also not allowed to truly cook in this kitchen, therefore I would say this should be advertised as a kitchen with limited use since it can only be used to warm up things in the microwave or to cook eggs, that’s it. I did appreciate the emphasis on security and rules, which made the stay feel very safe and clean, but it is also removing a lot the friendly hostel vibe that can be encountered in the more common concept of hostels, however as I stayed only one night, it was perfect for me. Little minuses are also the limited possibility to use the common space and the lack of curtains in the room for privacy.

    I stayed in a female dorm and it was one of the cleanest dorms I have ever stayed in. Having a private toilet inside our dorm was a big big plus. The bed was comfy and the staff was very helpful in setting the temperature right for a comfy night. Big lockers available, very well organised hostel, helpful staff, little terrace access from the dorm, spacious rooms and good location make reasons for this hostel to be a good choice.

    The common area and the showers close at 23.30. this means that if you dine at a Spanish time and you indulge in a drink at the pub, you end up needing to shower the following morning. The owners are most of the evening occupying the common area with a romantic attitude, so that it is embarrassing to go there to read a book (you would need to leave at 23.30 anyway, which is the moment they leave the room). Shower curtains are filthy and the whole shower experience is not comfortable. The toilet room (luckily open h24) is no more than ok. Two WCs are probably a bit scarce when the hostel is fully booked.

    The place is close to the main attractions of the city. The beds are fairly comfortable and very sturdy. There are cabinets you can close with a lock (if you don't have one, they give you one with a 10€ deposit).

    The quiet hours are nice but seemed extended compared to other places, I suppose this could be a good thing.

    The location is excellent we took the metro from the airport and back just as a layover.

    Some staff members were unhelpful. Lots of strange rules around the kitchen and also, shower and kitchen opening times in an hostel do not make sense. The place is advertised as having a terrace but it doesn't really have a terrace. There's also rules around that too. Having curtains on beds, would also help with privacy and accommodate different time routine among guests.

    Female staff was extremely helpful. Location is great. Female room was spacious.

    Room has no window, but AC is very good. Also, would've been great if you could close the bathroom or wc doors.

    We booked the private room, so everything was very clean. Location is amazing, placa de catalunya is just 10 minutes away by foot. Staff is great.

    Clean and safe. Nice neighborhood. Bring earplugs.

    The listing said "breakfast included," but it was not what we expected. The food consisted of toast, questionable-looking ham and cheese, and some cereal and milk. If you wanted the "good" coffee, you had to pay for it. However, there was a refrigerator in the kitchen, so we ended up buying some groceries, making our own breakfast, and buying coffee at local cafes in the neighborhood. The room had two fans, but I found it quite stuffy and hot at night. The beds were clean, but not comfortable. All the guests followed the rules, but some were MUCH louder than others. I would suggest bringing earplugs and an eye mask if you're a light sleeper.

    Don Moustache is in a great location. The neighborhood was beautiful, with plenty of places nearby to shop, eat, and drink. The hostel itself was very clean, and Vihangie (who worked at reception) was kind and helpful. The property had security cameras and I felt safe both inside the hostel and walking around the neighborhood at night.

    The bathrooms were dirty. There were no bed curtains. It looks like something unsegnificant but it can improve a lot the stay for everyone. It brings privacy and you do not bother the rest of the people by turning on the light. There are a lot of beds and just one WC. It could be a bit uncomfortable during the high season.

    The location is great. There was no need to use public transport. The shared rooms are not mixed. And they do respect that.

    I can not think of one thing that I didnt like in the time that i stayed there.

    Location was good. I Just had to search a little bit for the front door. Hostel was very clean and the facilities were good even when the building/inside was what old. Breakfast was good .there were 2 kinds of bread that you can toast. Cheese or ham? To choose from etc. you could take cereal / Milk/juice/ thee of coffee. Or make your own meal in the kitchen. Stuff that you bought like food you could place in there. The employees were very open to help you with all the questions that you have. The time I was there it wasnt busy so that was Nice. Every day I got new sheets on the bed.

    The shower room was smaller than expected. And there are no shelves to put clothes, so it would be good to bring your stuff in bags that can be hung on hooks.

    Staff were helpful. At check-in, they explained in detail about each room, including the common areas and shower rooms. They also advised us about famous tourist attractions.

    The set of rules as soon as I got there to be downloaded on me. I felt like I was in high school, I understand most of them but not being able to cook and use the kitchen which you advertise online is false advertising. Let me explain that every hostel has one kitchen and loads of people staying there and everyone gets by ok by sharing space and waiting to use it and cleaning up after themselves so this rule not being able to cook because theres lot of people is ridiculous and also considering there was hardly anyone staying there it was silly. The showers were very average and old.

    The rooms were cleaned well and the bathroom in the room was nice. The kitchen area is clean and the one common overnight staff member was very nice.
