The staff were very friendly and helpful and this hostel (not an apartment) was centrally located and very convenient. The kitchen facilities were great but the bathroom was not so great. The bathroom was kept clean but it was very smelly and you have to share it with guests from 4 other rooms which can be a challenge.

Apt. Ramcat was a great hostel. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The hostel was very clean and in close proximity of some of the best things Barcelona has to offer. The only downside was the fact that there was only one bathroom for several people. Other than that, this was a great value for the money.

It was super noisy because of a bar near the hostel. Sleeping before 4 was impossible!! Insufficient blanket for the first night!

Great hostel. Room was really nice, clean and secure and provided a big communal kitchen & bathroom. Could use the fridge and all the facilities in the kitchen. We originally thought it would be too quiet for us but it was great, really liked having a place to come back and crash after wandering around the hectic streets.

This hostel is good. Good for location, money, facilities, and staff. I got my free tea and coffee with sugar and cream at the kitchen as well as free wifi. The staffs are very friendly. One staff came to pick me up in front of the Hard Rock Hotel, and I had no clue, but she suddenly recognize me (don't know how LOL). The location is very good, very close to the La Ramblas. Overall, I will definitely recommend and stay again at this hostel.

More like a service apartment than a hostel! Absolutely brilliant! Slightly noisy in the evenings but what can you expect from being one road away from La Rambla. The location was more than perfect and the girl that came to meet us more so friendly! Would definitely stay here again.

Ramcat wasn't too bad of a stay. It sucks because they dont have 24 hour check in so if you get in past a certain time you have to pay fee and it keeps going up the later it gets. They also dont have luggage storage after check our or a reception desk. We had to meet the guy at the hard rock cafe in plaza catalunya and he walked us to the apartment...sketchy. The rooms are really clean and it smells good so that was a plus. I found my stay there comfortable but I would not stay there again

The apartment was beautiful. Everything felt very safe. When we arrived Diana was beyond helpful- she told us what to see, where to go,( and not go), where to eat, etc. We also had her number for if we had any questions during the day. Definitely would go back!

firstly the staff where condescending what was not a good start then the staff where not around as all. the way they had set the place out with all the rules maid the whole place very cold and every one was scared to make a noise, to many rules i think they for get that they are dealing with adults who can think for them self about what is right and wrong don't need threats of being kicked out. and the last thing is there was no wifi every were else has it you can just provide one slow commuter.

The hostel has a great location, that is great point of the hostel for the price. There is only one bathroom and during our stay,one day it wasn't possible to use the shower as it was blocked. The minus is that there is no reception, so you can not really find staff during the day and also that is why if you arrive after 9pm you have to pay extra

The location is great and it does not have "hostle" atmosphere. It's more like renting a private apartement in the middle of Barca! Really nice!

Good place to stay if you're with friends and want your own space. Weekday rates are good but prices rise on weekends are a bit excessive. Was quite cold at night in the entire place, but hot water and kitchen facilities were good. Bit hard to have more than one person cooking at once, but this is ok if you're not in any sort of hurry. close to supermarket, there's free wifi, very secure etc. Would stay here again but probably in summer.

Had a great stay! Excellent location, near Plaça Catalunya. The girl who came to pick us up was very nice and helpful. The apartment has a kitchen, which is very useful if you want to cook and save some money. We liked to buy fresh food at La Boqueria and then cook there. Only drawback: there was just one bathroom for everyone in the apartment. Anyway I would definitely recommend it, and would stay again if I went to Barcelona!

We were two people at the hotel and it was perfect to both of us. It was very clean, it has a kitchen with everything that you'll need despite the fridge is so cool that our milk frozen :) We were lucky because the apartment only had 2 rooms with people, so there was no problems with bathroom. Location is perfect to walk around Barcelona and get to know Bairoo Gótico and Ramblas and the staff were very welcoming.

The location in perfect, super central. Easy to get from airport. Girl that met us wwas very helpful, explained where to go, how, what to see and gave a map. The hostel is like apartament, cozy, clean and comfortable. There is a computer with free internet, fully equiped kitchen, and some sweets for guests :) The room was cozy, had heater (useful for this season), small window to the patio, enough for air, but not enough for light.

EXCELLENT location! The staff was friendly but pretty much nonexistent. You could find them if you needed to though. Compared to a hostel the place was very quiet and lonely but all in all it is an excellent apartment in a perfect spot!
