The location was amazing. It is in the center and within walking distance to everywhere. The room was very clean and cleaned every day. It always smelled very nice. I stayed alone, but the rooms with a balcony are perfect for two people. The balcony is very cute. Every evening, I sat there and enjoyed watching the street. This hostel offers great value for money. There is 24-hour access to water, tea, coffee, cake, crackers, yogurt, and cornflakes in the common area. But If your expectations are very high, you should choose a 5-star hotel. If I come again, I will stay here again. Thank you!

Fantastic location! Great room ( double with balcony) excellent kitchen facilities making breakfast and lunch easy and hassle free. Staff went above and beyond to help us out when we found ourselves in need. Street below was busy and a bit noisy but ear plugs completely changed the game. We will stay agai.

Ridiculously small bathroom

Good location, room was nice with a good balcony. The bathroom was ridiculously small, with the shower and toilet the size of an airplane cabin! It also states there is a good selection of food in the common kitchen but it was very limited so don’t rely on this.

Everything more than well enough

It's not a resort hotel, but everything is adequate for a comfortable stay. We are not big so didn't find the room and shower space are too small. The room was clean and tidy and was quiet as it was not facing the road. The best thing was that there was a fridge in the communal area with drinks, ham, apples, etc., ready to eat and coffee, etc., available at any time. We had a very comfortable stay.

The place was acceptable. There was no reception in the building, you had to walk around the block to check-in or if you needed something. Cleaning was decent. I had a room with a balcony and the street was noisy. Bring earplugs. The breakfast is very basic, but it was available 24 hrs.

We're 2 seniors who enjoyed staying here!

We are two seniors who spent 4 nights here. Although our room was very small, it was well-designed. We spent our days as tourists and came back to the room briefly before heading out again in the evening. The location is very convenient for shopping, restaurants, and the flamenco show which we saw at the City Hall. We were able to travel easily using public transit. The bed was firm but comfortable. The room had very good lighting options, and sufficient electric plugs for charging our devices. As we were on the same floor as the breakfast area, the clatter of dishes could sometimes be heard in the mornings, but it was nice and quiet at night. We really appreciated the thoughtful extra touches including little gifts left in the room on our arrival. Overall, as budget travelers, it was a great choice!

I know the area very well. At first I thought wow the room was in the small side but you don’t go on holiday to live in your hotel +s safe & secure; close to metro lines 1,2,3; a lot of restaurants , bars attractions all within walking distance , nice n quiet overnight , excellent kitchen facility on 1st floor for breakfast, very efficient & friendly staff, the cleanliness , great air-con , a big Aldi 2 doors down , check in is just around the corner in Carrer de Gravina -s not a tremendous amount of space for hanging /storing clothes but you cope; not having a tea making facility in the room but offset by the kitchen facility on 1st floor - you can make a cup have there or take up to your room I loved staying there & already planning trip back

Excellent location for walking through the city for our last day in Spain. Easy and quick access from Barcelona Santa to start our day. And even better to catch the A1 bus to the airport the next. Room was exactly as expected from what was represented. Coffee and snack/breakfast to fuel our day was appreciated. All in all, it would be a good spot to base from extended exploring of the city.
