My stay was ok. We had a 6 person room and for 2 out of 3 nights our 3 person group had it to ourselves. The real trouble came when another man booked into the same room as us, stole my macbook out of the locker. It was all locked up and the only way somebody could have gotten into it is picking it or having the key. After an FC Barcelona game I came back to my missing computer. When asked if they had an insurance policy for stolen items they replied with a no. Bad luck with this hostel.

Dear Joseph, Thank you for your comment. We are still considering the matter of your stolen Macbook. We really wanted to inform you that we haven't taken this lighly. In fact, it has gone to police. We called them and they took the details of the ´presumptous´ thief. Also, your locker was not closed (it means that nobody else has or had the key). The locker was severely damaged. Anyhow, the police is still taking care of the situation and as we said to you before, if you have insurance policy (because it doesn't affect if we do - since it was a personal belonging of the customer) you could ask for some compensation. We always try our best to bring best comfort and security to our customers. Thanks.

Stayed 2nights and was very enjoyable, excellent location right next to la ramblas, and easily situated for everything, room was clean and quite spacious for a 8 bed dorm, bathroom was big and shower was good!! staff were very helpful and provided things we needed. We booked an 8bed dorms even though there were 9 of us and they supplied us an extra bed free of charge, would definately stay there again!!

The hostel was great for someone interested in a location near La Rambla. It was just a 2 minute walk down a side street from the boulevard and maybe 5 minutes from La Boqueria which was awesome. The rooms facing the street were very noisy from the bars and people below even with the windows closed, but other than that it wasn't a terrible stay. Also, the people working at the front desk were very friendly and eager to help.

I was fortunate enough to be put into a 6 person room with decent roommates. The rooms are small, but the lockers are big. Make sure to bring a 2euro piece and that bad boy will let you have the locker for the whole time and you get it back each time you open the locker. The breakfast is not good. Lots of processed food. There's one computer that works with internet, but at least they have internet. They don't provide blankets, you have to buy those but the bed wasn't bad to sleep in. Clean. Avg

The breakfast is not very good and only from 8. to 9.30 a.m. It is okay if you need a cheap hostel, but not that nice and very loud. Moreover one has to pay for every additional thing, for example: locker room and bed shets.

The toilet seats were broken. The shower head were terrible, no pressure at all. I stayed at 3 different hostels during my traveling in Barcelona and this one is with lowest infrastructure. It was so hot but no arrangement of AC or it didn't work. So i personally will never stay there

Worst hostel I ever stayed in. Room was below all levels, shower was broken, water leaked from the ceiling, unclean bedsheets. I had a room for 8 people wich should have been a room for 6 people max, very small. I couldnt even open the door at first because the closet blocked the entrance. Overall dirty hostel except for the reception. Dont let these guys rip you off. Some people in my room payed 27euros. Defenitely not worth it.

I loved the location of the hostel and it's not a bad hostel at all to stay a few days in Barcelona. What I didn't like was the dirtiness of the bathroom and the awful smell from there. I guess that's because I was in a dormitory with 7 other people but the bathroom would need to have a window or a ventilation to stop the horrible smell.
