It.s a nice place to stay in barcelona if u really don't care where to sleep. It costs not much at all,so don't expect anything special. vety good stuff on the reception. The only thing u could do better is the atmosfere - it's so dark everywhere in Buba, that u just can't understand if it's day or night.

This place was within walkable distance from Plaza Catalunya and fairly easy to find once you understood the directions the hostel gave. There were only 2 showers and 2 toilets which was a pain when people were trying to get ready. The hostel itself is only 6ish rooms and the ceilings have pipes and concrete sticking out; so don't expect much. The staff was super helpful and friendly though and they gave out free maps. Breakfast is included too.

This was an excellent hostel - the staff were so friendly and helpful and gave us very good suggestions for restaurants etc. There is a lovely cosy atmosphere and it is fun to mix and chat with people over the free coffee and breakfast - and the location is superb . Great value for money - would definitely stay here again..

We had a great room overlooking the street with a small balcony. The street was quite busy but otherwise the room was decently quiet. The staff was friendly and helpful. The bathrooms was clean but the showers was terrible with warm water missing or very spontaneous at best. Over all I was happy with my stay at Buba House.

I was not impressed with the breakfast. We had to wait in line to use the microwave, wait in line to use the toaster, wait in line to get a table, etc. I think expanding the breakfast area or adding a few more breakfast items might make the overall experience better.

A very good hostel. But it is a bit noisy in the night, as my room is just near the main road. Also the ceiling is not that good. The location is perfect. The staff are nice, they have helped us a lot.

We really enjoyed our stay at Buba House! It's pretty central, the staff was helpful, it's clean, they offer breakfast and a great kitchen for selfcooked meals. I can definately recommend Buba House and would go there again, if I would visit Barcelona again!

I had nice time staying at Buba house - extremely friendly staff with a lot of useful tips, relaxed atmospehere, bathroom and kitchen were always clean, and nice breakfast. I liked the colorful decoration and not to crowded dorms as I seen in many other hostels. And wireless is working :-) Will definitely stay there again!

The staff is so kind & fun! There is really good free wifi! The free breakfast had toast, cereal, eggs, coffee, and tea. The location is walking distance for everything you want to see in Barcelona. I would definitely stay here again!

The hostel is in an apartment which is located in the most luxuries part of the city and it is only minutes of walk to Gaudi's apartments and 29 min walk to Sagrada Familia. Besides bathrooms are clean and staff is helpful. Price is very good.

I cannot praise the staff enough, I had personal dealings with 3 of them and heard interactions with other guests and on every occasion they were friendly and very keen to help. The location was perfect for me, especially liked how close it was to the metro/train stop. Also easy to get to good places to eat, sites etc and liked eggs at breakfast. Sometimes no hot water and a bit noisy (the hostel could do more about this, but was mostly inconsiderate guests). Overall, good value.

I enjoyed being able to make a cup of tea with milk. The staff were helpful and friendly. t used the free wifi to catch up with emails. I would recommend others stay at the hotel because it is near the railway station on the airport line, and you have a room to yourself rather than a dorm as in a hostel.
