Guest Reviews
- Oleksandr (9/5): -
- Eva (6/5): Ok für ein ider zwei Übernachtungen. - Gute Lage, Küche Sehr laut, hellhörig- andere Gäste knallten Türen, sehr laute Bauarbeiten im Haus.
Es war auch sehr hell.
- Adrián (8/5): - Tenía la parada de metro muy cerca.
La habitación e instalaciones muy bien por el precio que tienen. Lo peor es el baño compartí por poner una pega.
- Yukiko (7/5): 真夏以外であればとてもオススメ! - 駅やバス停までのアクセスがとても良い。清潔でスタッフが親切。生活に必要なものは全て揃っている。アリが数匹いたが、そこまで気にならないレベル。 8月中旬に泊まったが、エアコンがないので、暑くて眠れなかった。窓を開けて寝たが、外の騒音がひどかった。グラシアの地域の祭りにかぶってしまい、早朝から夜中3時ごろまで、外がとてもうるさかった。ただ、涼しい時期に利用していたら、不満はいっさいない完璧な宿泊先です😊

- Emiel (8/5): Good value, excellent location - Location is excellent, despite property having ~ 15 rooms on one floor, it was very quiet and showers were always available and clean. Fridge in the room. Not much to mention, I did not use the kitchen, and I spent most of my time outdoors.

- CHIENJOU (3/5): - Este hotel está muy limpio todos los días, pero la falta de baño privado es un inconveniente.
這間旅館每天清潔很乾淨, Todos los baños están en modo de ahorro de energía, pero las luces se apagan antes de terminar, lo que te obliga a lidiar con ellas a oscuras. Es muy incómodo. No hay aire acondicionado y el único ventilador no es suficiente para la circulación del aire. Además, las cenas familiares son demasiado ruidosas, lo que dificulta acostarse temprano. No se puede cerrar la puerta con llave al ducharse, lo que te hace sentir inseguro. Elige con cuidado. Aunque es más barato, las molestias te arruinan el ánimo.Esperanza de mejora
但沒有單獨使用浴室的選項很不方便,廁所都省電模式,但還沒好就熄燈要在黑暗中處理,太太太不方便,沒有空調光靠一個電風扇不夠空氣循環.另,家族聚餐太吵了,要早點休息還無法,洗澡無法鎖門沒安全感,各位要慎選,雖然便宜一點,但太多的不便造成情緒被破壞,希望改善

- ANTONIO (5/5): - POSIZIONE HO PRENOTATO UNA SUITE CON BALCONE. MA NON MI HANNO DATO LA STANZA CON BALCONE
- Delgado (10/5): -
- Lilia (7/5): Honestly I can’t complain. The hostel was located in a good local area, the host was very nice and accommodating, I saw - The hostel is in a very good part of the city and close to all the main things. It’s close to tourist things but also has a local feel and vibes. Beware of no Air Conditioning! This was hard for me to adjust to as an American, even though I am from Florida and deal with/accustomed to Florida heat, it was definitely hard getting used to having no AC. However, the host Carmen was very accommodating and gave me an extra fan (without a timer on it so it would stay on all night instead of shutting off halfway through) and this helped a lot having the extra source of airflow in the room. I also found that taking cold showers and having water in the room mini fridge was very helpful in staying cool in the August heat in Spain 🥵

- Irene (10/5): -
- Clara (8/5): Muy bien para una estancia breve - La ubicación es céntrica, segura y muy cómoda respecto al transporte. Hay supermercados, farmacias, restaurantes y bares al lado. El tamaño estaba bien. Mi habitación daba a un patio interior bonito, pero se colaban los olores del McDonnals y los ruidos de las fiestas nocturnas en el patio y otros edificios los fines de semana. La señora Carmen es maravillosa y ayuda con todo. Estaba todo muy limpio. El confort está justo para 2 o 3 noches. Había 1 ventilador pequeño y hacía calor. El tamaño de la habitación estaba bien, pero el mobiliario era cutre, viejo y poco mantenido. La silla muy incómoda si pretendes trabajar o estudiar. La cocina necesita ser renovada, y el cuarto del microondas debería ser reparado porque resulta muy desagradable en su aspecto. Las duchas y baños, dado que son colectivos, deberían limpiarse todos los días, no solamente de lunes a viernes. Tuve que pagar 5€ por dejar mis maletas el día que hacía el checkout, sin recibo

- Services (7/5): - La localisation J ai ajouté une journée et il l as demandé de l espèces de 65 euros et puis et il m as donner une petite chambre sans tele ,cette chambre la ne vaut pas ce prix là

- Hordac (8/5): Basic accommodation in great location, clean and fit for purpose. - The location is great, a few steps from the Fontana metro station. But also walking all the way down to the beach - which it may tike some time, it's a nice walk.
Check-in was easy after a bit of back and forth with the contact - very friendly and accommodating (they're not on location 24/7). The room didn't have airco, but I survived with the provided fan. The in-room fridge was big, clean, and cold, but it had a strong odor lingering inside.
Toilet and bathroom facilities were always available and very clean.
- Kanru (7/5): - Great location No air conditioner
- Santiago Arango (8/5): Cómodo y muy central. - El aseo de los baños.
Que había balcón en mi habitación.
Es demasiado central y encuentras de todo. Desafortunadamente tuve un restraso de mi vuelo para llegar a Barcelona por lo cual llegué 20 min después de las 11 pm. Por esto tuve que pagar una cuota adicional de 20€ a pesar de que era algo que se salía de mis manos. Entiendo la posición del alojamiento, pero es algo que se debe indicar desde el principio. Si está en alguna parte, no lo vi.
- Akane (10/5): Overall great stay? Would highly recommend! - The location was super convenient, close to a metro station. The room was spacious and cozy with a view of a tree and inside courtyard. Supermarket and restaurants close by, and walkable to many of Gaudi's architecture. It was great! Some noises at night from neighboring bars but nothing too bad.
- Isabel (2/5): - Estaba todo muy limpio La habitación no tenía aire acondicionado
- Adriana (9/5): -
- Safira (8/5): - A localização é excelente! A poucos metros do metrô! Estava muito calor e não há ar condicionado no quarto.
- Marta (10/5): - El lugar era limpio, cómodo, mucho silencio, tenía a mano todo lo que necesitaba. Carmen muy atenta y predispuesta a resolver cualquier pedido. Todo estuvo bien
- Christine (9/5): Most pleasant - Carmen who runs the place, is a gem!! She is very friendly and very open to help..
It is very close to public transport.
The place is spotless and it is very good value for money
- eleonora (8/5): -
- Kenji (6/5): -
- Kseniia (6/5): Room with NO air - +The location is good, the metro station is near.
+The kitchen and the bathroom are very clean ( thank you, Carmen).
+The most AMAZING hostel worker I've ever seen in my life - Carmen. That woman is a national treasure!!! Yes, she doesn't speak English and I don't speak Spanish but we understand each other perfectly. She is extremely nice and friendly!
+ There was a small fridge in the room -THE VIEW IS A RUSTY WALL
The rooms on the Fotos were perfectly nice, in the reality you get an inspiring view at the old rusty walls. And it would be ok, if they DOSCLOSED it, but no...it can be a "pleasant" surprise for you. Beware if you are a single traveler.
- You CAN'T open the freaking window!
Imagine sleeping in a room, when the temperature outside was +35C°the whole day and there is NO AIR FLOW. How can you sleep there? Exactly, you can not.
- A ventilator does not help, because you even can't fully open a window.
- No AC in the whole hostel.
-The IKEA furniture is a little old
If it were not for an amazing Carmen, I would give this place a "two".
- Ferdaous (9/5): -
- Gonzalez (6/5): - La posizione è la pulizia, molto buona. Prezzo non buono per i servizi. Cucina chiusa alle 8 mattina, senza luce nella scala de ingresso. No caffè,no tè etc etc.
- Alexia-maria (9/5): - It was very clean, in a good area and the staff was very helpful and nice (I was able to get by even as a non-spanish speaker) It can get warm in the summer with only the fan

- Respectful Traveler (7/5): Spacious room in a nice area. - The neighborhood is really nice. It's lively but still feels like a local area. There are a few plazas nearby where you can get wine and tapas, and there are also coffee shops, metro stations, and other transit options close by. There's a supermarket just a few steps away, and there's even a McDonald's. The room is big and has a desk, mini fridge, closet, and a big window. My room faced other residential buildings, so if you opened the windows, your privacy would be compromised. Also, on weekends, they played very loud music until very late at night.
As for the building itself, I didn't like the bathroom design. Since this is a student house, the bathroom design lacked privacy and features to hang clothes or other items. The shower and lights are timed, so you will have to keep turning on the shower and lights every minute.
- Olivia (9/5): Lovely staff, amazing location, clean and secure. Great for solo travellers -
- Ana (6/5): -
- Aya marcelline YORO (10/5): Séjour agréable - Tout....l'emplacement, l'accueil très très chaleureux, au passage Merci à la gentille réceptionniste,la propreté. A refaire sans hésitation
- Seorin (8/5): Lovely staff and lovely price! - The staff is very kind and cleans the apartment every morning and evening! Know that you can ask for a towel and they charge you 5 euros for keeping your luggage after checkout. The room I got was small and hot, even with the fan on. I felt that the entire apartment was somewhat hotter than outside sometimes. Probably due to the humidity in the apartment (and it seemed like they dry all the sheets and towels naturally),the sheet and towel I got smelled bad... I was lucky that I brought my sports towel that I used during my stay of 6 nights/ 7 days.
- Theresa (7/5): Great location, nice clean room with shared facilities including kitchen. Will definitely stay again - Nice and clean and helpful staff - slight difficulty making myself understood as no English speaker but otherwise fine Just someone who speaks English.
Not always someone there.
I couldn’t make the fan work and no one around to ask.
- Davide (8/5): - Great hospitality. Comfortable student house.
Far from the city centre but very well served by buses and near the metro station.
Suggested for cyclists staying one or more nights in the region.
- Pedro (10/5): Accueillant - Carmen, la dame de la réception, est très très gentil. Elle m'a beaucoup aidé dans le moment le plus difficile de ma vie.

- Balla (9/5): - The Hostel is located very close to the city centre. The staff was very nice. There were some ants in the room.

- Caccia (4/5): -
- Felicitas2210 (10/5): Für einen Kurz- wie auch längeren Aufenthalt bei zentraler Lage und Anbindung eine Empfehlung wert - Mir hat diese Unterkunft sehr gut gefallen.
Die Küche ist bestens ausgestattet, die Lage einfach top und bei Fragen und Klärungsbedarf hat man zeitnah einen Ansprechpartner.
In der Unterkunft selber wohnt eine Dame, die alles im Blick hat und sich direkt kümmert.
Dazu gibt es einen Aufenthaltsraum, um sich mit anderen Reisenden auszutauschen.
Gerne wäre ich länger geblieben, doch ist die Unterkunft zu Recht gut gebucht.
Ich komme gerne wieder. Was hätte besser sein können?
- karim (10/5): - Todo
- Laurence (8/5): Super contente! Je recommande. - La situation géographique, le calme, la sympathie de Carmen, la propreté, la respect de chacun, le confort de la literie
- Mohamad (10/5): -
- Marcicleide (10/5): - I was very well received from the stuff.
The things and furniture and bedroom were so tidy and clean.
I loved it. Nothing
- Marc-André (3/5): Not comfortable during summer - Overall not very happy about this place …. The location is pretty good, close to restaurants, metro 2 min walk. You have access to a shared kitchen, you have a private mini fridge. Good desk in the room and comfy mattress. Wifi was good. Staff was welcoming. Was not comfortable overall. Was too hot to sleep without AC. Could not sleep. Woke up suffocating, having nightmares I couldnt breathe and dying. Only way to have fresh air is to open the window which is right on the main street which cause problem for safety (accessible) and very noisy with cars. Also the shared bathroom was not great. Sharing one hand soap pump between 3 sinks and 3 showers. Cockroaches in the bathroom. Sharing 1 towel per day to dry hands in the bathroom between all guests. The staircase to go up to the hotel is completely dark at night and a hazard. Next time I will get a room with AC because its not worth it otherwise.
- Nathaniel (8/5): The place was homely as in plain but also as in welcoming like home! - Friendly host, keys for safety, size of room, and quick response to needs! Had nice spaces for food and relaxation, and these were kept clean. The bathroom hand air dryers did not work. The host put a hand towel up, but I didn't want to share this with several others. (I'm sure she would have handed me one my own if I had asked for it.) One of the bathroom floor tiles was loose, too, and I kept avoiding it so as not to slip.
I'm not sure how I missed in booking that this was a shared bathroom (by gender), but it was still fine--not busy, and the people were considerate.
- Karolina (10/5): - Przemiła obsługa!!! Czysto, schludnie, dobra lokalizacja, adekwatnie do ceny.
- Gomez Gonzalez (10/5): Repetiré seguro ❤️ - Espectacular ubicación y un personal increíble 😊
- hoek (7/5): -
- Zara (8/5): - Great location, very clean and friendly staff!
- Lukasz (8/5): Very decent and safe place to stay - A very kind lady had waited for me until very late due to my flight being delayed.
Room was clean and everything you'd expect was there.
Fan in the corner was a blessing
I had a fridge in my room as well to store cold refreshments.
Room was spacious, clean and had a balcony.
McDonald's, grocery shop and food available literally on your doorstep.
1h walk to the beach
20 min walk towards the park
Perfect for someone who doesn't mind walking and has no issues to sleep with open balcony doors - it's relatively loud outside pretty much throughout the night.
City does not sleep, gets very quiet only between 3 and 5 am No TV and no Air con
Showers could use a fresh lick of paint, still perfectly doable.

- Senn (6/5): Cumple. - La amabilidad de la señora Carmen, la amé, muy cercana a todos y cariñosa.
La ubicación del hostal y Muy limpio. La pieza no se parecía a las imágenes publicadas. Muy calurosa y con poca ventilación.
En el baño la luz se corta cada 30 segundos, es incómodo.
- Esteban (9/5): -
- Thaddaeus (10/5): It was great at all - The Staff is really Kind and take care For a solo traveller of my Kind it was enough cause I spend 90 percent of my time abroad. It was quiet after 11 pm what is good to rest a little bit after a hard day or night. The only thing there was no air condition but a fan. Barcelona can be hot but it’s not wet like in South America so you can easily sleep with a fan. I forgot my watch but the staff wrote me quickly after I checked out so I have get it back 👌
