Great location

The hostel is clean, friendly and well-run. Location is outstanding, right near the Rambla and the Cathedral, and about 10 minutes walk from the metro station. We had a private room with A/C and it was comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful. We were able to store our luggage during the day while exploring the city. Internet had an annoying facebook login thing so I didn't use it.

Not up front about the cost (taxes or whatever was added on) became more than 3x as advertised). The free coffee made me sick. I am throwing up small amounts of clear acidity. The lockers wouldn't hold my carry on 10 kilo luggage; just the larger (smaller than the max size allowed).

This place has EXCEPTIONAL location going for it! It’s right near the AeroBus (10 euro Rt from the airport) drop off at placa Cataluña in the Gothic. The room was spotless and the seating area and kitchen were very welcoming. Showers were nice and big and right close. The free lockers (key) were ample and secure in the room. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The only negative was the fire escape like access. It was moldy smelling but smartly painted with murals. I would book here again. It’s not big and upscale like the Generator in the Gracia but a definite find. Good luck.

아늑하고 편안한 숙박

혼성인 줄 몰라서 약간 당황했지만 그럭저럭 괜찮았습니다. 직원이 매우 친절했고 청소를 매우 자주 합니다. 다만 엘리베이터가 없어서 짐 옮기기가 굉장히 힘들었습니다.
