Great hostel! Helpful staff! Very clean and quiet at nights so you can rest. Close to most attractions by feet! Loved it! I would prefer it in my next visit to Barcelona!

Great hostel! Only downside is a very small kitchen, other than that cannot do better!

A great little hostel with a great location and cheaper than some other places farther out of the centre. They're not trying too hard to be cool, or pretend that they care about you -- it just genuinely is a cool place, with awesome caring staff and a nice laid-back atmosphere.

We had a very nice time despite our short stay in Barcelona. Location is terrific, just a few minutes walk from the plaza, and the staffs treated us well. I'd definitely stay there again on my next occasion.

Such a fantastic place! It was great having such a helpful staff that gave numerous recommendations on activities, nightlife, food, drink, entertainment, and more. The facilities offered, like free lockers, kitchen, refrigerator, laundry, and internet were such a great help for our stay.

I thought it was kind of weird and uncomfortable that the actual rooms didn't have locks on them. It was nice to have lockers though and that they were free. We just had to make sure we put everything in our lockers before leaving.
