I reserved a 6 person room, but there was only ONE power point in the entire room. So all of us had to take turns and rotate to charge our phones and cameras. Also, the room had only one main light, and we did not have individual lamps at our beds, which made it very difficult to move around in the dark. There was no wifi in the rooms too. The signal at the wifi area was pretty weak too. Finally, it was EXTREMELY noisy at night. There were people partying downstairs till 5am.

We just did not have a pleasant experience at Center Ramblas. They only had internet down stairs but then closed the use of computers and down stairs area after midnight. They only had four computers which didn´t work half the time. The staff wasn´t very helpful when we asked for suggestions for places to eat etc. The window was left open one day, bird poop everywhere in the room. When we asked for new blankets they simply told us to take them off of another bed in our room. Breakfast was okay.

Wifi is only available in the lobby and common area. However the common area closes at from 1am-6-am. All the staff were lenient towards this rule. Obviously if you got too loud they would ask you to leave. There was 1 staff member that really made our stay somewhat unenjoyable however the rest of the staff were excellent!! You get what you pay for is pretty much what I'm saying. Not the best place but certainly not the worst either.

This is an OK hostel, it's a bed and if that's all you're looking for stay here. You couldn't use your own locks on the lockers which was annoying. There is no kitchen, no atmosphere, and the entire hostel feels cramped. Not the place to stay if you're a solo traveler or like meeting new people. Breakfast is ok.

There were a lot of people staying here at the same time as me. It was a little overwhelming being in a tight room with 11 others. But I just spent more time outside in the city. The immediate area around the hostel can get a little seedy at night, but the staff is always watching the front door and you get an electronic key card for your room. Lockers are available in the rooms.Showers are ok. Breakfast was good but there are no kitchen facilities other than a refrigerator.

It was good experience but one thing I like to recommend is to have wi-fi in all floors instead of having it on ground floor only.

Nice hostels. The staff is very different, sommetimes very nice, sometimes less. We can't access to the kitchen or tools for diner, which would be useful

It would be better to have 1 key per person, even if we are a group in a dormitory. Beds are not really confortable and they should change their coffee and orange juice for the breakfast ! Nice welcome, good to have internet access, very good location ... thanks!

I took the decision to stay there because of price, so I wasn´t expecting much. Honestly I was suprised, but I actually had a nice time there. There was a litte bit of noise in the night, but also we made some noise in the morning so that´s ok. Stuff was friendly, my roommates were great, free wifi - can´t ask for more.

Rooms are extremaly tiny,there is even no place to place your luggage on the floor, showers extremaly tiny as well and not clean!! hairs and so on. General standard bad, ugly rooms, nothing is modern...My roommates went sleep at 10 pm so I couldn't even look for my things in locker after this time as space between beds is probably 40 cm, so very disturbing for others when u do something when they sleep...+Advantages: excellent location and quite nice staff

It is what it is. No frills, nothing special. Atmosphere is not very welcoming. No place to meet people comfortably. If you're looking for a cheap place in a very good location it's the place to be, but not the best for meeting people.

hostel is very nice, they have lockers for security. The facilities are tipical for hostels, the main advantage is localization - very near to everything. People who works thre are nice. Wifi is free. and I really enjoyed the fiesta.

The hostel is definitely worth the price. While it doesn't have the best internet connection, the cleanest bathrooms and quietest nights, the location makes up for everything. It's an excellent place to stay for short trips with peer friends who are down to have a blast in Barcelona. For more mature people I'd recommend to pay a little more and get some more comfort.

It was really cold in our room. I guess they don't have heaters in the rooms? Also it sucks that there is only wifi in the lounge because it closes at 1am and every has to leave. Good things are that the location is great and there is plenty of food, bars, and great things to do in the area. Also really close to transportation hub.
