Location, price, beds are very comfortable, breakfast is good. Overall I would give them a great qualification because the price is awesome and you get more than you pay for.

They don't have towels even in the bathrooms, the wifi sometimes doesn't work in the room with 8 beds and if there's a lot of things plugged in - some other thing may lose energy. It happened to the toaster, because a lot of people were plugged in the next room.

Overall, the cleanliness was very good.

The bed had a wooden planks which could break very easily. You should consider replacing it with sturdy beds. Also, the breakfast time was 8-10 am, which should be ideally expanded to at the very least from 7am.

Nice, clean hostel. Great value for money! Although there's only one shower, we went in the October half term and it was always empty when we needed to use it.

Right next to busy street, bring ear plugs!!!

Staff are very helpful. Everyday room cleaning. Clear and spacious kitchen. Splendid view from the balcony. Very cool lift. Great location. Plaça d'Espanya is very close to the hostel. And all these for low price. I would recommend this place to all travellers.

Everything is clean and bright, the staff can speak good English, and I can put my luggage there before I check in (I got there at 10, the check in time is12).

The room is closed to the road, so there's some noise during the night.

The staff are really friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the sights to be seen in Barcelona. The feeling you get when staying there, is like staying with friends even if you are traveling alone.

They could do with air-conditioning. Barcelona in summer gets very hot, and some relief from the heat would have been nice

I really like the location. My room has a balcony and I can see the street at night. There is a small bar right downstair so it's very easy for a late cocktail (the magarita is really really good, but not the mojito). It's close to Espanya, and you can just walk 1 blog to the bullring and see the magic fountain at night. You can also take the bus to the airport at Espanya. It's very close to the metro as well. The guy at the hostel is very friendly. Also, I paid 15 euros for a night plus good breakfast, which is an awesome deal.

The water is a bit cold. Only that.

It was a nice place situated centrally in Barcelona, it was clean and the staff was ok.

For some reason we didnt have internet for two days and hot water went off after 22 o clock but i guess this was temporarily. I arrived at 9 o'clock and i couldn't find anybody for 2 hours but this was mainly because they were moving two floors down. I really consider that these were temporary inconveniences.

Very friendly staff, don't forget: it's a hoStel, not a hotel. Not that comfy, but clean, situated next o the subway, close to the city, with clean sheets and a bed. Breakfast is for free, which is awesome for people that are travellin on a budget and just need to get some toast into their tummy:) I liked the fact that its a a former flat, feels like u really live there!

The bathroom was flooded, cause the showers kind of leaking. Fix it and its perfect:)

A real value choice for a budget conscious travellor. The bed is clean and a personal locker is available per a guest. The kitchen is easy to use and a small but well managed vegetable shop is very close to the hostel. However the best thing is that people working in the hostel are very helpful and assisting to the guests.

Spacious hostel. Many tourists. Great breakfasts. Comfort due to the proximity to the parks and the subway. Cool lift. Feel a part of the city, when you go out on the balcony in the morning and look at the fussy people. I recommend;)

The best hostel I've ever been to. The staff was amazing and the boxed beds and lockers gave you great privacy.

It's not so easy to find if you arrive very late at night.

A perfect location, 3 minutes walking from Espagna Square, right in the heart of the City, verry close to Eixample Quartier. Verry clean hostel, good conditions, good breakfast. Over all, I would recommend this hostel to anyone who goes to Barcelona for a low budget vacation!

A little bit noisy. The room's door closes only with a padlock.

- Price/quality ratio - location (Plaza d'Espanya is only a 5-min walk away) - friendly staff that also knows English - kitchen for cooking and keeping your groceries cold

- Only 1 shower for over 10 people (might be a problem when travelling during busier holiday seasons) - warm water runs out pretty quickly - very slow WiFi

Location in the city centre aside from the tourist district, though not too far from it. Every bed has at least one power outlet. Breakfast is simple, but good considering the price. It was ready at 5:30am when I was checking out.

There is not much public place. It was cold in the hostel during my stay in December.

The staff is friendly and speaks English. We could leave our luggage after check-out and pick it up later! Regarding to the location it's near to the metro station and about 10 minutes on foot from Plaça d'Espanya. The breakfast is included in the price.

The bathroom and the rooms aren't clean enough. We didn't get any access to WiFi network so I don't know how does it or doesn't work. The breakfast could be better. There was no window in our room! If you don't want to sleep, this place is for you. The bathroom was located opposite to our room, so we heard all through the night somebody slamed the door.

The hostel is very clean

You can't lock yourself into the bathroom, so be prepared that you will have company at any time. The location of our room was terrible!!! It had a window door and next to the exit, so we were twice nicely surprised during the night when someone wanted to enter the room!!! And having the window door you couldn't sleep during the night because the lights were always switched on and shining directly into our room.
