Very modern building, clean but very sterile. Not very central location but close to BCN Stadium. I had 50 Euro go missing from my locker. Staff didnt really believe me, but the cleaners DO have keys. On the other hand the staff were brilliant for the duration other than when money went missing. Good for families, wouldnt say brilliant for travellers.

Good basic hostel. Enough space. Convenient location if you arrive by train on station Sants. Most of all I liked the good breakfast and a terrace. But please be careful and watch your stuff.

10 minutes walking away from metro station. Staff is nice. Wifi is only available at the hall, 1 column in the room. Kitchen is wide & clean (3 fridges, 2 microwaves, 2 electric cooker. & additions); you can cook & save your budget. Dining room is ok, can only pick up food once & hand in your breakfast ticket. The room is ok, too, you have key for your own locker. Separated toilet & bathroom. Locker in the bathroom is not safe. You can check out, leave luggage there and come back later.

everything was great ,but i just felt that the common room wasnt very welcoming and didnt inspire people to interact , should be more colourfull or in a different place without the reception desk in the same room , but thanks for the stay , :)

Boring! Now ive travelled alot this past 5 months and this was a boring hostel. If youre looking for fun, like-minded people, dont go here. It looks like a hospital, feels like a hospital and smells like one. People from all ages stay here, 5-100. You cant get internet reception in the rooms, ONLY in the cafeteria area. You need your own blanket or sleeping bag, they only give you a sheet, luckily i had mine with me! Its just too boring. Location, cleanliness and security are great though.

I felt very comfortable and safe in this hostel. Though it was large, I found it to be very quiet, especially on a Friday night. It was very easy to find from the train station. I would definitely stay here again.

It looks good in outside and the entry hall, but once you start to live inside, it is really like a nightmare. It is usually noisy around you, plus a wet, hot, toilet’s smell fills of the room all the time. And, there is no lock in the shower room, I feel unsafe when I take a shower. Moreover, the water is usually cold not hot. In general, I won’t recommend a clean female to stay here.

Ehh... pretty average, its very large so you have tons of people and only 4 computers so you can access the internet around 5am, maybe. I didnt find it to be very clean.

Good location, liked the common area and loved the outside courtyard bit. The shower was incredibly annoying turning off every 20 seconds and the air con had one temperature so it was either too hot or freezing cold. Staff were friendly and helpful and overall enjoyed my stay.

This Hostel locate near the Sant station so, convenient to go everywhere.And walking distance for the Canp Nou Stadium. There are beds and shower room, lockers in the room. Its basic but there is no problem. In the loby, possible to use free internet and wifi, and have kitchen. Breakfast is same menu every day, but several kinds of hams,breads,juice. I think good taste.

The only problem I could notice : there is no way to control the air conditionner in the rooms so that you're freezing in the night in addition to the permanent noise
