“ i booked a 8-bed dorm and finally i stayed in 4-bed private room. it was a surprise and i enjoyed my stay. the shower is a little bit narrow, but tolerable. the location is good and easy to find: just search the Mcdonald and KFC, it is on the opposite! you can leave your baggage after check-out but max pick-up time is 4 p.m. ”

“ This hostel was amazing. The location couldn't have been any better. The atmosphere is really cool, and the staff are so nice and helpful. I did not have any problems with anything. There was free computers and the staff was even very helpful in telling us how to get around and helping us get back to the airport. The atmosphere was very young, so if you are interested in that this place is perfect. (It's great for young adults.) If you go to Barcelona, I absolutely recommend this hostel. ”

“ I stayed here for 5 days in Oct 2012. I realized that the location was great, middle of everything. There was a staff named Alex who helped me kindly with all my questions. Other than that showers are too small. I don't know how i managed to take a shower in there. Bed covers are dirty. And finally and the most important one is that I saw a bed bug and it freaked me out. I would not stay there again for the last reason. But if u have to bec of your budget at least bring your own bed cover. ”

“ Good location, and a relatively cheap for a bed near La Rambla, so if that is what you are looking for this is the place. However there is no real atmosphere in the place, despite the friendly staff, rooms are poorly cooled down during summertime and are very tightly packed. ”

“ Security: poor because locks were old and difficult to lock meaning that some people didn't lock them at all. Location: poor because the apartments were next to kebab shops meaning that drunks were outside being loud until around 8am every morning. Cleanliness: poor because the shower leaked into our room and the airconditioning looked like it hadnt been professionally cleaned in years Value for money: poor because its expensive for what it is, which is awful ”

“ As it is said in the name, this youth hostel is ideal: clean, well located and interesting prices. The staff is nice and the atmosphere is great. They have a great place on the roof that they should equip. Ideal to meet people from all over the world. Great memories! ”
