Location
Hostelworld says
Nestled at the base of Montjuic, HelloBCN Hostel has been a popular spot for travellers coming to Barcelona since it opened its doors in 2006. With an array of activities organised for guests (pub crawl, group dinners, beer pong), and the friendly disposition of the staff you'll feel at home right away. The hostel is located just minutes from the Parallel metro station giving easy access to all of Barcelona's top attractions, and it's within walking distance of Port Vell, La Rambla, and the Gothic Quatre. We particularly like their unusual electronic bracelet keys because they're difficult to lose or steal.
