Nothing bad to say. This is one of the cleanest, well looked after prosperities I have stayed at.
The staff and facilities are great and although we had a shared bathroom, it still felt like our own given how clean and spacious it was.

I had a single room and even though it was small it was very clean and modern, a very comfortable stay. The location is unbeatable, it's right where Liceu station is and is amongst a lot of attractions and good eats, very walkable and well connected. Staff were courteous and were around 24/7. Please note this doesn't have a kitchen area or a laundry service (if that's important to you), but there are a few laundromats nearby that were reasonably priced. It's not a hostel to meet new people...

Small but spotless, quiet (we had a courtyard room), and it had everything we needed. Great location (though we like to walk a lot), with a multitude of grocery stores nearby. The staff were friendly and accommodating. Great value - couldn’t fault it.

Hotel a short walking distance from the train station. Which is also where you get onto the Bus Tours. Nice people on reception. Room adequate and comfortable. Breakfast cafes within 2 blocks of the hotel. Lots of Tapas and bars to choose from as well as more upmarket expensive restaurants. And also great laundromats eg LavaXpres. In summary, a great location.

Loved it here! It definitely lives up to its high ratings. I booked a bed in the female dorm. There was a shared bathroom in the room. Each person got their own locker and curtain around their bunk for privacy.
I checked in at 3am and the guy working at reception was very helpful. The same guy was there when I checked out at 5am after staying there for 6 days. Again he was very nice and helpful. I would highly recommend this hostel to any sooo travellers out there.

The staff are excellent value and go out of their way to help you. They are knowledgeable about the surrounding area and are happy to advise you how to get their easily. The place is very clean and the beds comfortable even though it is a hostel it is very quiet..on Thursdays they provide a meal for 10 euro per person. Which is a fun way to talk to others. Would definitely go back their if im in Barcelona again.
