Guest Reviews

• Magdalena (9/5): Great location and great price - Great location, the rooms were clean and the view of the university plaza was great The bathroom with the shower constantly had a wet floor. I don’t think it’s the property’s fault but still it’s worth considering.
• Anonymous (8/5): Very good -
• Halle (7/5): it was good for a young couple on a budget. - it has a very very good location. very close to a train station so easy to get around. our room was quite small but that’s what we were expecting. the sheets were clean. the shower was okay, the mat was constantly wet which is slightly uncomfortable.
• Kevin (3/5): Intrusive and unhelpful staff members - Location We were not informed that a member of staff would be CONSTANTLY present in the shared common area, often taking up 2 of the four dining room seats with her and her bag. It felt incredibly intrusive. When we complained that we were not informed on the booking that staff would be constantly supervising us and taking up the already small space provided, we were told that it was this staff member's job to look after the accommodation. In actuality she was not helpful to us at all - she did not provide our group with enough towels, she accused us of leaving the front door open when we were all sure to keep it closed, she appeared to let a different group of guests use the washing machines while we were told we were not allowed. While "washing machine" is not included on the list of facilities, they are visible in the pictures and we were not expressly told we cannot use them prior to booking, which we found misleading. It is also not made clear that house rules included no drinking. The phrase "no partying" is included, and alcohol is allowed to be stored in the fridge, but the same member of staff told one of our guests to stop when they were silently drinking a single can of beer in the kitchen. If this is a house rule then no problem, but it's not made clear on the page which is an issue when guests simply want to unwind and relax on a holiday. We were also told by another group of guests that they were not informed of this rule, so the house rule is applied inconsistently. There was also extremely loud drilling on our first morning in the building, which woke up our entire group. It is understandable if the host did not know, but we received no prior warning. I am sceptical whether residents in the building would really have no idea that drilling would take place - if the host knew we should have been informed. Toilet paper was not provided and we had to buy our own. Very disappointing when hostels would normally provide toilet paper.
• Liliana (6/5): The place offers decent, clean, and great amenities for the price.the price! - Location, location, location! The personnel working there were very helpful and great! They did their best to fix all the mess ups caused by management and lack of planning! They changed the door lack and did not warn us! Got home tired, at midnight and was locked out for a good while. Then, next day the door code expired before 10 am and got stuck “again” with no access to the property and luggage after breakfast!
• Greteman (9/5): Good value for the money, good staff and great location! - The location was amazing for the price and the room was clean and comfortable—you had everything you needed. All the other residents were very respectful and it was never loud. The view was also good! The street was a bit loud but a pair of earplugs fixed that and the shower was pretty dirty with black stuff stuck on the bottom. Make sure to bring shower shoes!
• Alexander (9/5): very nice - location pillows
• Michael (9/5): Superb - Close to the metro and taxis
• Ian (9/5): Superb -
• Daria (8/5): Very good - Great location, close to most attractions and near metro station/bus to airport station, host was very nice, a bit noisy but we assumed it from the start. Not very clean though, but overall very good value for the money. Very suitable for groups of young people who travel on a budget, but also want a bit of confort (and fun, of course).
• Lily (10/5): Exceptional -
• Christopher (6/5): Pleasant -
• Daniel (8/5): Very good -
• Filipa (9/5): Superb -
• Tuğberk (7/5): Good - Location The rooms not clear everyday
• M. (7/5): YES, the windowless room exists!! - The apartment is located in the center, very close to the ramblas. The airport bus stops across from the apartment. Working elevator. Basic apartment. Kitchen with facilities and cutlery. Windowless room which does limit the excess noise from the busy square in front. For the beautiful view, the kitchen is usually free for use. Thin 'walls', so limit your noise. Only one shower, so plan your shower so you do not get stuck with cold water when in a rush. Toilet requires extra bucket of water for flush down.
• Lani (10/5): Worth it!! - Located at the heart of the city, just 2 min walk and you will reach the metro station where everything is within reach. The room is clean and the unit is cleaned daily as well as the toilets, well maintained. We even were allowed to wash and tumble dry our clothes and even cook. Home away from home and very affordable They are not responsive at all, thats the only con I can think of.
• Lani (10/5): Very good value and most recommended - It is very close to the city centre. The hostel is very clean and it smells so good, very well-maintained. The shower is cleaned daily and we were able to wash clothes and cook. 10 stars for the price amd facilities. The only bad thing is that the facility is not very responsive to us prior to coming unto the property and its very hard to get a hold of them when we have questions and requests
• Simonetti (7/5): Great location - Location was great! And the view from our room Window didn’t close properly, but it wasn’t too much of a problem for us
• Mardliyah (8/5): Very good -
• Karolína (8/5): I recommend it - The accommodation was good, clean, right in the center on the metro. View of the square. Kitchen equipment perfect. I recommend it, we would definitely stay here again. We did not read anywhere in advance that an extra fee of €20 is payable in case of check-in after 8 p.m. There are relatively narrow beds 120 cm wide. Unfortunately, the door to the accommodation cannot be closed quietly, but that could be fixed.
• Muselli (9/5): Superb -
• William (8/5): Very good - A great location, very good view from our room. The value for money was very good also. A television in the room would have been a nice addition.
• Stuart (7/5): Simple, no frills accomodation with very easy access to Barcelona. - Compact and convenient. An easy walk to all parts of central Barcelona and some great bars very close by. Could get quite noisy at night with the windows open. The room was pretty small, but on the basis it was only really for sleeping in then not a problem.
• Iryna (6/5): In general it’s a nice place to stay in Barselona if you arrive for few days and plan to walk a lot. - First of all the location is fantastic, it’s close to everything! There are several nice caffès around. It’s close to the Casa Mila and other Gaudi’s masterpieces. Same, if you want to make some shopping there are all popular shops around. The neighbors were loud at our first night. We texted to host for some help, as it was not possible to fall asleep. The host replied just in the morning. The next night was calm.
• Olena (8/5): Very good -
• Kremena (9/5): Cosy and clean -
• Milica (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mattia (7/5): Good -
• Viktor (10/5): Exceptional -
• Markovic (8/5): Very good - Location is amazing, apartmant have great view and it is ok for clean also. Host is also nice. Hm, i don’t know. Maybe bed is bad for sleeping.
• Emilia (8/5): Very good - Central, easy to access, cheap! Host was really nice as well! The water pressure in the shower was not good and the toilets did not always flush.
• Janka (1/5): AVOID. - The location. Do not book the single room. It is actually a windowless hole which cannot be aired at all, it is dark, uncomfortable and claustrophobic. The walls are paper thin, so noise from the neighbors (especially when they are not considerate enough not to scream and shout all night) is almost unbearable. The whole place is shabby, run down and disgusting, there is no proper cleaning, the doors do not work properly and are very noisy to open and close. There is central AC that cannot be controlled or turned down, so ended my five-night stay with severe illness. Since the single room is not advertised properly (a room _by default_ comes with a window), I told the owner upon arrival that I would report this as a case of false advertising, since I could not make an informed choice based on the advertisement when I booked the room. In response, they tried to bribe me into not reporting the issue. The only perk of this place is that it is cheap (I mean, relatively cheap, accommodations in Barcelona are severely overpriced), but well, it comes with a price. Avoid this place.
• Zoran (8/5): Private rooms on great location¹ - The location is great, apartment is spacious, kitchen has everything needed. You can have a noisy flatmates, walls are thin. Also bathroom can be a mess if people don't clean after themselves.
• Heba (5/5): :/ - The location is just perfect, it is in the middle of everything and couple steps to the city centre, the apartment has a full kitchen with a washing machine, it is in the 6th floor with a left. The stuff were friendly. Note the policy of this place which says that you should pay 200 euros deposit in case of any damages ( which I have never faced anywhere else ) but at the end I talked about it and they didn't take it from me. But be careful because there are broken things in the apartment, you may be charged for it even if it is not your fault and it is from previous people. The room is so small, has no fan, nor an AC and also no window, which was so hot and unbreathable at night. The bathroom was clean, but the water flow was so so so weak in the shower. Also, the door lock was a bit hard and takes time to open it.
