Property was very clean and quite cute, was quiet after about 22-23h. Seperate men’s and women’s showers, felt very safe. Honestly our biggest issue was that some roommates were not very lovely but overall everything was great!

Payment problem.

There was a problem with payment. I had already paid for the hostel through hotels.com. The hostel said they never received payment from hotels.com. So the hostel charged my card for the stay which was an unauthorized charge. After all the confusion, hotels.com said they would refund my onekeycash $34.65 which as of two days later they have not. We will see.

Really liked this hostel, despite being on the cheaper side. Paper towels in bathroom always a plus, very clean. Lockers outside of room, but I found this convenient and preferable to being inside the room. Top bunks don't have charging capabilities. WiFi would continually require you to re-sign in and view an ad, even in the middle of using it, quite inconvenient at times. Rooftop terrace very spacious to get work done or work out. Also, there is a large laundry room that works for a secluded, quiet location when the terrace is closed. Location of this hostel is great. Barcelona in general is very walkable, and from here even long walks have a lot to see.

The location is the only think I enjoyed about this property. The rooms are too small for 12 beds and therefore too noisy and smell bad whenever someone uses the WC. The lockers are located outside of the rooms, just in a corridor, they are too small to carry a hand luggage and back pack and everyone sees you while you are changing, The showers are also away from the lockers and the rooms, so taking a shower was quiet embarrassing. The best part about this stay is that the lady sleeping next to me stole my iPhone while sleeping, hopefully the stuff helped me to get it back from her. I would not recommend this Hostal.

The breakfast area was very beautiful. Staff was super friendly and helpful and knowledgable about the city. I loved that there were plenty of outlets in the bathroom and bedrooms. I wish they sold adapters and basics like toothpaste. It would be nice to have girls and guys separate. People tend to just change without warning. Also it would be nice if the beds near the wall had a curtain on the wall side. When those people turn on their light at night, it wakes up everyone.

Toilets were really dirty and my room had the pipes exposed in the ceiling, which meant that every time someone upstairs flushed the toilet or opened the tap at 2-4 am, we would all hear a loud noise in the room.

My bed was not clean, same as the toilets. Toilets were very scarce and the one in my room could not be even locked. Not that it matters when you cant even use it because it is disgustingly dirty.

Cozy common area, open later than most. Showers need a serious deep clean. Toilet was fine. Mattress was ok. Old building, creaky wooden floors made being quiet difficult. Personally added some charm for me. No alcohol allowed on premise, kind of a bummer.

This was a really large hostel. There was a decent breakfast spread for a small cost. The lockers we outside of the room which was a bit inconvenient but other than that I would recommend this place. Decent walking distance to many things, as well as close to the subway.
