Very close to the city center and the start/finish line of the Barcelona marathon. The staff was incredibly kind, and the room was ready immediately upon arrival. Everything was very clean, and the rooms were soundproofed — no noise from the hallway or the street. Coffee, tea, croissants, milk, and beer were available for free in the shared kitchen. The hostel is located in a beautiful historic building.
The rooms were very small — the photos don’t show this accurately. The triple room was so tiny that we constantly had to make room to pass each other. Considering the trip was with a stroller, it was very uncomfortable. Using the elevator with the stroller was a real struggle.

room looks just like the photos and there were plenty of amenities within the room or the common area. Perfect location right in the heart of Barcelona, great transport links if you need to get further out, we used the metro and bus system to and back from Primavera festival and had no issues. Would definitely stay again.
TVs have functionality for Netflix/Amazon Prime but was unable to be used, not a huge issue for us but would have been a nice added touch

great central location, minutes from Casa Batllo, lovely shops, less than 10 min walk from Plaza Catalunya and La Rambla. Rooms were in gorgeous old apartment block, with grand entrance. room was small, but comfortable, beds and sheets super comfy, shower strong, nice toiletries, hair dryer. There was nespresso coffee machine, and teas outside in the lobby, so we could ahve coffee in bed. Also microwave and a small fridge avaiable to guests for drinks or small items of food. Team was super freindly
The room was backing onto a large courtyard with what I think was of old peoples home, so every morning around 7.30am, their staff were having a chat outside, while hangiong out the washing, meaning if I opened the window (to let fresh air in), this would wake me up. It was nice to feel the every day life, but we could have done with more sleep...

Good, clean and quiet accommodation in a great central location, close to metro stations. A good base to walk to explore most of the main attractions in Barcelona. Plenty of cafes, restaurants and mini stores nearby. Staff were friendly and helpful. A bonus was the shared space near reception with free coffee and snacks. Would recommend.
Our room was on the small side, but enough space for 3 adults plus 3 medium size suitcases. The small balcony was nice to see the word go by beneath us on the street.

We loved the room, the facilities, and the check-in process. Quiet room, safe, cute decor. Beds were very comfortable. Definitely would stay again.
The hair dryer should be stored somewhere other than a basket under the sink. People had obviously been using the basket as a trash can. It was dirty and had long hair in it. There were long dark hairs all over the unit. The shower head is too big, lots of water on the bathroom floor.

The property was in an excellent location, was very clean and confortable, better than I expected for such a good price. Good size rooms, and comfy beds. Complimentary coffee and muffins in the little den next door to our room. Staff were very helpful and friendly.
My only critique is that the room was missing a good sized mirror, the only mirror is in the bathroom. Hardly a critique, but just one little thing that I feel could be improved on 😊

There was a misunderstanding when we arrived but the issue was solves quickly and efficiently. We had very good communication and the employees were always willing to help. The location is great, close to tourist spots and the accomodation has a lobby area with free coffee and muffins/fruits.
The bathroom door needs a quick fix ;)

Very nice location, and Brayko is great guy.
This is not related to this property, but with Barcelona generally, prices of hotels and apartments went crazy in last 2 years, and prices are now more than double.

Great location, walking distance from subway / bus / shopping and dining facilities in the center of the city. Walking distance to the start point for the airport bus. Very friendly and helpful host, who goes out of the way to assist. The space is clean. The room has everything one needs but expect functional, nothing fancy and will meet expectations keeping in mind it's like a hostel rather than a hotel. Very good value for money, considering the location/season.
A water boiler and/or a mini fridge in the room would be welcome.

The location of this hotel is amazing; being next to the Passeig de Gracia metro station made our time in Barcelona extremely fast and convenient. The price was perfect as well. The room was as expected with temperature control and huge windows. There was a communal fridge, water cooler, microwave, and coffee/tea supply in the central shared living room. We really appreciated the free water that was provided. Our host (Brayko) was extremely helpful and nice. His hospitality made our stay that much more welcoming and better!
There could have been more counter space in the bathrooms to put our toiletries and desk space/power sockets in the room for our stuff, but it was usable regardless. There was limited hot water in the evening as everyone is showering before bed in the building. To note, even the "cold water" was still lukewarm and not cold.
