First of all - great value at great price! There were 2 slight problems: 1. our food got stolen regularly - it's not their fault, but they could install a security cam or a fake one to discourage stealing. 2. The other problem was that the hostel is really loud! The walls between rooms are made of paper so you can gear people talking in the next room, not to mention yelling. The windows are old so if you get a room on the street front get ready for trash trucks and motorbikes at 4 AM.

Overall our experience was great! The location was in a nice quiet location, but was easy to walk everywhere from it. We did not find the staff helpful when we asked them questions about the city.

It's a cozy hostel with a cozy kitchen that makes it easy to meet people. The best of it all is definitely the staff. Very kind-hearted people! Oscar, Marguerita, Marina, Martin, Xavi, I wish you the best.

Would have been good if there was a teatowel in the kitchen. And a new sponge every new day.

The receptionists were all very nice and extremely informative. The double room was nice and the shared bathroom was clean. The Wifi was pretty spotty and hard to reach in the room and throughout the hostel, but overall we enjoyed our stay.

All in all, an amazing hostel. Great value for the cheap price, it is incredibly clean and well-kept. There's an elevator for getting to the higher floors, access to private balconies in some of the private bedrooms, a small kitchen and dining room on every floor and a big fully-equipped one on the main floor, plenty of computers and eating space, and the staff are all very friendly and super helpful. Great location as well. 5/5 in my opinion!!

Great hostel for the most part. The kitchen could be a bit better with the addition of an oven. Also the showers are a bit inconvenient. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The two common rooms are great, very spacious, lots of computers you can use. I would recommend this hostel to anyone.

Nice there was a full kitchen. Pretty average hostel out of what I've stayed in, but nice and clean. Within walking distance of stuff (if you like walking, which I do- better way to see the city if you ask me).

A genuinely great hostel! I stayed there with my 5 friends for my 21st birthday and we enjoyed every minute and felt safe and secure all the time. Some of them hadn't stayed in a hostel before and were very impressed. Within walking distance from La Sagrada Familia, La Rambla and Casa Batllo, GREAT LOCATION! Very good directions too as it was extremely easy to find as we arrived quite late at night! Would recommend this hostel to anyone!

It is not a youth hostel. The amount of adults staying there over powered the youth. There should be an age limit if you are going to call it a youth hostel. Plus many of the older adult guest were inappropriate to younger guest, I would never recommend this hostel because of that!
