    Very good
    Perfect place to stay while exploring Barcelona.
    Clean room (and hostel) with cute balcony, close to the city center. For Skaters, Macba is just arround the corner, universitat also really close. The hosts are very helpfull and friendly. Shared sannitary also clean and well taken care of.
    Sometimes a bit noisy sinds there are some bars in the street, but this is something u allready know before travelling to Barcelona. Earplugs do the job.

    Overall, i had a great experience staying there! Everything was very clean, the shared bathroom was cleaned several time
    The location was very convenient I could reach to most of the sights just by walking. The shared area was very clean and the staff was very friendly
    I was afraid that it might be noisy but I was provided with earplugs and in general it wasnt too noisy. So all went great

    Central and Basic with Fantastic staff
    The staff was fantastic. We had the pleasure of interacting with Eva and Ariel who were absolutely lovely. They helped us with everything we needed. The facilities are great for the price and location.
    It was a bit noisy at times but earplugs were provided. The overall decor is basic but that is to be expected since basic is in the title :).

    Ideal Location and Friendly Staff
    The location was great and is super close to the Gothic Quarter. The staff was super helpful and friendly!! We needed help to print our boarding pass last minute and were so grateful that the staff was able to help us in this matter. The room was spacious enough and the bathroom was relatively clean.

    The location was perfect!
    The walls were very thin and you can't sleep well because it is too noisy. For the money you spent it is completely ok!

    Very good service right from the start. I was delayed to reach but Nora (The receptionist) was super helpful and also checking in once a while if everything was ok on my route to the hotel . I ended up extending the stay. Overall very nice stay and everything comfortable. Thanks to Nora for the extra care and service ! Had a wonderful stay
    Maybe noise a bit but with earplugs slept well

    Nicely managed very practical hostel in a very heart of Barcelona.
    Convenient location - 15 min. walk from Plaza de Catalunya Funny self check-in machine on the reception. Friendly staff. Clear step-by-step instructions. Pay attention that it is a hostel, not a hotel, so many tiny rooms is exactly what was expected. Be aware that the hostel is located in a kind of Chinatown area. To me there was no problem at all, but it might be a matter of safety concern.
    The rooms are declared as non-smoking, moreover, there is a clear warning about the 200 fine for smoking inside the room. Which is supposed to ensure additional cleaning in case of a violation. Still, at the check in there was a strong smell of weed smoke inside the room. I was lucky to have spare time after check-in, and the smell was eliminated by a stuff advised.
