Good location, rooms are clean and as expected. Friendly staff. Might need more directions how to find it - since it occupies only 1 floor in the building.

Very old building where hostal is on 3rd and 4th floors. Small room with very small and outdated moldy bath. Lift is with double doors (wooden and metal) and both should be closed before lift can go. Absolutely not accessible for wheelchair as there are more than 10 stairs before you can use lift. Had to ask face towels for everyone because got just one for 3 of us. One change of beddings for 7 nights stay. Our stay here was more expensive than stay in Madrid but very basic and disappointing.

Everything was good. Friendly staff. Daily house keeping. Great location next to L4 and L5 metro lines. Filtered hot and cold water. Unique old style elevator. Bring ear plugs if sensitive to noise. It is an old building and you may hear the water flowing through pipes at night.

Very comfortable and clean, good amenities, great location near the bus V19 to go to the beach or to Park Güell. The area is close to everything: grocery stores, ramblas and paseos (main avenues) and tourist attractions. Very friendly and helpful staff. I strongly recommend it.

staff a bit abrupt and tried to make you pay entirely by cash when it's clear they take card. I didn't have cash so it took 10 minutes of fighting with them. Other than that, safe, simple, hostel. Clean room and AC works great.

The receptionist Paolo was very unfriendly, rude, discriminatory and he yelled at me when I first entered the building. I payed for 2 nights, 3 days but the first impression was so bad I had to leave in less than 5 minutes since he was so rude and I felt so scared I left the keys right at the entrance and left to find another hotel. I would have rather lost the money than spend a single hour in that hotel.

WE à Barcelone
L’endroit est idéal pour profiter de Barcelone. Et nous avons adoré !! Cependant Nous avons été un peu déçus. Nous sommes arrivés à 20h30 un vendredi. Nous avons dû nous rendre à un accueil à 2 rues de l’hôtel. L’hôte d’accueil était absent et nous avons attendu 15 mn qu’il revienne. Le parking n’était pas facilement accessible car on nous a demandé d’aller chercher un ticket puis de revenir au second accueil pour payer. Finalement, nous avons trouvé une autre solution dans le quartier. Enfin, il est vraiment dommage de disposer d’un si joli bâtiment et espace, et d’en négliger les détails qui pourraient rendre les chambres remarquables. Quelques exemples : rideaux détachés ou déchirés, bavures de peinture, télécommande salle, etc.

Great location, in between Park Guell & Sagrada church (which I found out by walking around) Shared bathroom which wasn't a problem, also one on the floor up. Bathrooms, floors super clean. I could walk barefoot no problem. Building of apartments, offices & 2 floors of the hostal. My room was by the elevator, stairs and the office which was LOUD. I heard the phones ringing and the staff talking and people in the lobby & outside my window. The rooms are very close tho I had a private room I could hear all conversations. People need to whisper & talk softer! My ac had a high button which helped to block out the noise but it only stays on for 15 minutes then all night I would have to press the button to turn back on. Staff was helpful with shuttle & help needed.

The place is like a dorm. You will need to share bathroom with others, with even no soap provided. What makes it worse is the room we stayed was next to sitting area and there were people constantly talking, turning on lights the whole night! There is no curtain in our room, so whenever someone turned on highway light, I woke up! We barely slept at all. And also the elevator broke and we had to take stairs up and down for two days! I would not recommend this place to anyone at all, no matter what your budget is...

My family were traveling in Spain for 18 days! This is the worst place to stay! Came in with dirty room and no bathroom light!!! I paid for it, so we stayed! During check out, the guy staff threatened my wife & gave us bad attitude because we gave them bad reviews! He was probably expecting a 5 star! Are you kidding me???? If we were not only catching the train (almost didn’t make it), I would have punched his face! Terrible service!!!! Do not stay there! Bad place! Dangerous place!!! Worst decision I made! Worst traveling experience!!!

Response from Mireia on 1 Aug 2018
Dear Ed, thank you for your review. We would like to clarify some things. First of all the room you booked, a triple room with private bathroom and balcony was very clean when you arrived; it's true that one of the lights in the bathroom wasn't working when you arrived and the next morning we change it inmediately. You check out at 12h and left the luggage in the storage room, which we have available for our guests. When you came back in the afternoon, you went straight to this room. you didn't come to the reception to ask for your luggage and the receptionist nicely told you that you couldn't go on your own without asking to take your lugggae and you were very upset. Nobody threaten you, and the service we offer you was always very good, we like to have our guest happy. Our hostal is very safe and very quite, located in a very beautiful neighborhood in Barcelona, it's not dangerous at all. Best Regards, Mireia

Nice hostel in the center of Barcelona
Having never stayed in a hostel before I didn't know quite what to expect but I enjoyed myself very much here. In an early 1900's building you feel the history of the city. I found the staff very friendly (I got a tourist coupon book for discounts of many attractions in Barcelona when I checked in). You are so close to so much at this location. Being a hostel the rooms are small and you share a bathroom but none of this was a problem and everything was always clean. It was also very quiet at night. They have a cold water cooler, and a frig if you wanted to bring home food. They had a pretty open window area with a table to have breakfast or a break from all the activities you have planned. This place made me very open to going to another hostel in the future. Great place to stay in one of the world's most beautiful and fun cities.

Small But Comfortable Room, Kind of Noisy
My room with shared bath was very small, but the TV and the air conditioning worked well. There is a fair amount of noise from the hallway and adjacent rooms, but after 10 or 11 p.m. it is fairly quiet. It might be worth it to pay for a private bath and have a bigger and maybe quieter room.

The worst hostel ever!!
One of the worst experiences ever. Staff was rude and kept asking me how long I was staying even before I got in the door. Room Was smaller than my closet at home and hostel Was far from main part of town and subway so cab fare made up for savings on the hostel.

Good location for budget traveler
I arrived very late at night for my stay that I needed to check in at a different hostel then walked 2-3 blocks to Hostal Felipe II. Check in desk close in the evening so it may be inconvenient for guests arriving late. I stayed in a single bedroom with a sink. The room was a little small but good for one person. Both bathroom and bedroom were very clean, with nice housekeeping. The location is really close to metro station and buses to any attractions in town. There's also a few restaurants and grocery stores close by. I overall had a fair experience for my stay with budgeted rates for staying a week in Barcelona. This hostel can be recommended to budget travelers.
