Really good hostel! Great atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff, and the prices are affordable for a student. I can honestly recommend this hostel, it's clean, rooms are quite big, have lockers, and free breakfast every day is also a big advantage. During my stay, I met here students from all parts of the world. I really enjoyed my stay here.

This is really a great hostel !! Situated at 10 minutes from the beach is cool, but it's far away from the city center and the other attractions so it's really for beach lovers only !! Everything was perfect instead the showers which are not really useful because the way they are created it's difficult to have a dry place to put his stuff. But it's really nice and I enjoyed a lot :)

We thought the hostel was a great place to hang out, near the beach and not too far from central Barcelona, the staff were nice and it was great we could use the facilities after we check out that day. The breakfast was great and clean rooms etc

We had a great time at the Hostel. It was clean, the staff were great, the atmosphere was fun, and it was a great value for the money. The only complaint that I would have about it was how far away it was from down town. It was about a 10-20 min metro ride into the city.

Our stay at Be Dream hostel was way more than we ever could have expected. The atmosphere of the hostel was perfect for the traveling college student. We will definitely recommend this hostel to anyone.

Lovely Hostel...not super close to the center or the city, but its beach location is quite nice, and super easy to get to. We had no problem traveling around the city from where we were staying. The facilities are very clean and the breakfast wasn't bad either. If returning to Barcelona I would definitely stay there again.

The hostel was pretty awful. We left and found a 3star hotel for about the same price. It was a 45 minute commute on the metro to even get to Be Dream. Staying one night was even a stretch and we left immediately in the morning because we were terrified. I have told everyone to stay away from this hostel.

Clean, cheap, very close to a really nice beach. NOT 15mins from anything in Barcelona. Close to metro but almost impossible to find - inset btw2 buildings; staff not really friendly (except 1 girl); busy painting, but nothing done about hand dryers not working, no soap dispensers, &showers that dont stay on. Told staff: roomies don't close the door (security), but she just shrugged and did nothing - not even a note on the door. If you want ppl to stay so far out u have to make it worth it!

This is a really nice hostel! Stayed 3 nights there. The kitchen was clean, the breakfast was normal, internet was good. The only problem is the location: a little bit far away from the center of the city. But metro is cheap so not really a problem! Rafael, Brazil

There is no Wifi in the rooms that are not directly next to the office. You are not in Barcelona, so should not be called a Barcelona hostel, it is misleading, you are in Badalona. There is nowhere to eat and nothing to do in Baladona, you have to take a half an hour metro to get anywhere, you conveniently leave that out of your description. The staff were always rude. The rooms were really cold even with the air-conditioning on and then we were both yelled at when we used extra blankets.

Let me just start by saying that this trip to Barcelona was my first time EVER leaving the United States and staying somewhere by myself. Upon arrival I found it quite easy to find the place and after a few days of staying there I REALLY enjoyed it! I met some wonderful people on my last couple of nights there and had they've been there the first few nights I probably would have made my two month stay in BCN ALL at the Be Dream Hostel!

Very nice hostel, organized, and safe. Just one thing to improve: internet in the bedrooms. Sometimes i dont want to go to the lounge to get internet, because i diidnt want to spend my time while i was getting ready to go out. Congratulotions!
