The hostel is good located just a few blocks near la sagrada familia, you have easily metro and bus access. Staffs are cool and prices are not expensive. But i can say that the beds are uncomfortable you can feel the woods of beds and the rooms are not so clean. But Its really not expensive and great located..

We liked our time in the hostel. Top lokation and staff, they're very helpfull. Some more facilities are needed, sometimes too much waiting for the bathroom or in the kitchen, but they're reconstructing, so it's going to be a top hostel!

It was small, with noise from the other bedrooms and the street. A bathroom for each floor that it wasn't enought because there was too much people. But it's in the center, next to sagrada familia and 10 min walking to gracia.

The hostel was in a perfect location, less than a minute from La Sagrada Familia and a metro stop, and right next to lots of restaurants and cafes. The staff was very friendly and let us drop our bags off in the morning before we could check in. It might be hard to find the hostel if you don't know what you're looking for, but once you arrive at the address you need to look at the list of buttons by the door and press the button for Ole Barcelona. The hostel was clean and in a good neighborhood.

Really basic hostel with very little going on. If you want a base for going out and getting drunk, it's fine, but travellers who want to enjoy the rest of the city will get on better somewhere else.

the bathroom was so dirty that it made my stay unpleasant. the only thing i liked is location, close to Sagrada and metro station. Personally i will not go back to this hostel any more.

Really good location, 1 min walking from sagrada familia and metro station. Wi-fi was fast. A major drawback is non-existence of lockers. In addition, there were only two power outlets in my 10 bed dorm. However, 7 euro per night was very cheap. A small incident when I checked out: the staff didn't have change for returning my 10 eur deposit. He was unhelpful at first and said he would have change in about 30 min, though he came back in about 10 min with 20 eur and luckily I had 10 eur change.

This was literally THE WORST hostel I've ever stayed at... It was filthy dirty from wall to wall & they had one bathroom for each thirty occupants - where there was groups of girls doing their make-up that would occupy the bathroom all through the night. The staff was rude and acted like they were busy because they had one thing to do (that's the Spanish for you)...Oh, and if you have a boarding pass you need printed or a computer you need to use - forget about it - Misery loves company at Ole
