Vila Hostel Reviews

Hostel was very difficult to locate and phone calls to the reception proved to of little help. At 2am, this proved to be most annoying when you just need sleep. The place was itself was fine, you get an apartment for your group so isn't like a usual hostel, it's basically just living in halls at Uni for a couple of days. For what you pay, it's fine.

Nevermind that the hostel is a bit further away from Barcelona, it's a really great location where you can truly relax after a long day spent in Barcelona. There are great FGC/bus connections, night and day. I had a great time.

Their description of the facilities is simply a Lie. The say breakfast included (only small coffee and two very small crescent). The say football field ( Cant use it if you are not 6 persons). The say Gym facility (the gym is 20 minutes of train out of the site) The site is also 30 minutes out of Barcelona center. Theres absolutely no atmosphere on the campus. You can easily find way better hostel for the same price or for 2€ more (which would be a really good investment). The room wasNice/Good

-Nice accomodation. Also we've had luck meeting good roommates, so there were no real problems. The market and cafe in the hostel building is a great advantage. Also the transport to Placa Catalunya is rather easy (though 30 mins) but only during the day. There is a night bus, but it's a little tricky to find. The hostel desk staff could help and give some info about it earlier.

The hostel is student accommodation that is used over summer for tourists, so the rooms are big, and fairly private (even if sharing with 5 people). There are a number of great services, including a swimming pool and bars. But the hostel is really quiet far out of the city which makes travel time consuming and expensive. I'd recommend to stay somewhere a little closer as the benefits will outweigh any extra cost

I was great for what I needed, an easy place to get to and leave from when I was passing by Barcelona, I wanted to avoid entering the city. Cheers.

although far away from barcelona centre - easy available train service and very helpful staff!

Decent hostel for the money, but it is impossible to find, and far from the center.

I think that some of the staff members are not as welcome to changes as the rest, but the owner (or manager) is extremely kind. They were all willing to help when it came asking travel questions since it is a bit away from the city. I didn't realize it was actually a hostel for teenagers, but I lucked out because my roommates were older! There was A LOT of dust in the room because of construction. The beds in one room were too close to each other so it was awkward at first.

Don't go there, I payed by cash when I checked in and few days later they cherge my credit card like I didn't payed at all. I email them but haven't got replay yet.

THis is basically a hotel!!! best hostel I have ever stayed in!!! a little far from the centre but its only 30 minutes by train so wasnt too bothered. price was a lot lower then other hostels which was good to!

The cleanliness of the room left a bit to be desired as our sinks had hair in them and the fridge had some out of date milk in it which smelt awful! The continental breakfast could also be vastly improved.
