Good & Bad

The hostel’s location is fantastic , it’s close to public transport and major attractions. - The common areas are trendy and social, perfect for meeting other travelers. - Staff were friendly and helpful during check-in. But … - Noise Levels Were Unbearable: My biggest issue was the lack of sleep. The dorm was chaotic all night: people coming/going at odd hours, loud conversations, and even late-night showers. It felt more like a transit hub than a place to rest. - Zero Consideration for Others: Some guests blasted TikTok videos without headphones. Basic hostel etiquette was missing. If you’re a solo traveler looking to party and don’t care about sleep, this might work. But for anyone needing rest, think twice – the noise and lack of privacy ruined my stay. I left exhausted, not energized.

No privacy curtains

It's one star for a reason. They can't be bothered to install privacy curtains especially in the mixed rooms. The bathrooms are gross, only allowed to eat in the tiny kitchen in the basement where you received zero cell service. They won't store your luggage even though they have MASSIVE store on the side...just pick and choose who they offer it to. Spend the extra money, don't stay here. If you REALLY don't care where you stay and on a SERIOUS budget...then you will like it. Otherwise

Ok inn Barcelona

Room is very small. There are no places to hang towels and for four people that was an issue. Also, you could hear the showers from other rooms. If it was during the day that would be fine but it seemed as if the other guest would take them after we fell asleep.

The 5-fam travelers

We are a family of 5 and booked a 6-person private room with a bathroom. It was great: enough space, a clean bathroom, comfortable beds, and an easy location.

Value for price

I had a comfortable stay this time too. I hesitated because the price was so expensive every time I came, but compared to other places, I was very satisfied.

This was our first hostel experience and worked out great for our family of 4's short visit to Barcelona. The location is excellent, easily walkable from Aerobus stop and metro stations, as well as tourist areas. Although a busy/loud area, when the windows were closed, it was very quiet for sleeping. Kids enjoyed a few dips in the pool despite the cooler weather. Would highly recommend for an affordable stay in the city.

Very clean and modern hostel with efficient reception check in and out, fingerprint recognition, security for the front door and dorm rooms, large personal storage lockers, and very comfortable beds. Super friendly and helpful staff and a great, all you can eat buffet breakfast for an extra charge. Beautiful pool table, although only one cue has the regular tip. Nice second story Terrace with a small swimming pool although when I was there in mid October, the water was too cold for me and because of tall buildings true sunbathing is limited to about one hour in the middle of the day. 30 percent more expensive than nice but older hostels in the old city and the prices seem to rise If you book close to arrival, so if you know your dates, it's wise to book a week or two in advance.
