Comfy mattresses, quiet at night in spite of lots of people staying, and being right in the old quarter. Really friendly staff with amazing language skills. Felt secure for my young children. Good wifi. Very clean toilets and showers. We were grateful for the fan in the bedroom and in the communal dining area. I liked that the shower areas are separate for boys and girls. 24 hour checkin/access is superhelpful too.

I guess everything costs more these days but I was surprised at the price. The kitchen is short on cutlery and crockery (even for four people!) and the fridge needs someone to be much more ruthless with chucking things out. A roll of stickers and an indelible pen would help, and be strict about labelling.

I loved the location and the facilities, very convenient and comfortable. Toilet is separate from showers, and the showers room had sinks so it’s great for when there are many people around at the same time. Also a dining room where you could eat your lunch and not have to do it in your room. Finally, our room was in the third floor and it had an elevator so that was good for people who might need it.

Unfortunately, you have to expect a lot of noise at night, both in the hostel and on the street. Plenty of drunk people shouting outside and some hosts slamming doors and speaking loudly on the hallways. I brought my earplugs so it wasn’t too bad.

Got fresh bedding as usual but also towel and padlock which was a nice surprise, room was small but clean and had spacious lockers. Small balcony with a nice view over streets. Clean bathrooms, toilets, separate for males and females. Small kitchen for everyone to use in case they want to cook. Someone at the reception for 24h, you can check in and out at anytime and always someone to talk if need help. Nice location, close to the old town, restaurants and interesting spots.

For the price I paid everything was okay. Small rooms but had a table and chair which is not always a case. I really have nothing bad to say, enjoyed my stay there.

I’d say it’s a good hostel for a short stay, just like ours was. The hotel is in an excellent location in the Gothic Quarter, within walking distance of many of the city's attractions, as well as a wide variety of cafes, restaurants, and shops nearby. Considering what’s generally available in Barcelona, I believe this accommodation offers a good balance between price and quality, especially given that the room is private. The bathroom was clean and accessible without any crowding, allowing for comfortable and uninterrupted use.

Needless to say the location is amazing, I mean staying in the Gothic Quarter is magical as it is. The staff was very helpful and kind. You have everything you need in a walking distance and a metro station nearby. Surrounded with all kinds of places, cocktail bars, alternative bars, fancy restaurants and trashy suspicious dumps, a little something for everyone. Don't be scared or surprised by the people offering you drugs on the streets at night, they do that also in daylight, it's just the atmosphere of the whole region there.

Okay this one is a bit tricky, it's not that is the hostels fault but somehow a bit it is. The first two nights people in the rooms next to ours were very loud, and we could hear everything since we even shared a terrace with one room. I guess you can't put sanity into people but the reception could have at least tell them to keep quiet since it lasted till 5 am in the morning. On the second night we had to do something, we couldn't sleep at all. Also the beds were a bit uncomfortable and very squeaky.

Location is great, it’s in the City Centre, close to La Rambla.

More toilets/ bathroom would be nice. Only 1 every floor.

I liked the location, a lively area with lots nearby to see and do. The helpful, English-speaking staff. Great communication before our arrival. The property was spotless throughout.

The showers were clean, hot and powerful however they were operated by a timed push-button which was frustrating. The bunk beds were squeaky which was annoying. The mattresses were firm. The room wasn't very bright. I would have liked the -beds pre-made. Instead of receiving freshly laundered linen packs to make them yourself, it's the last thing you want to do after a late check-in.

It was clean and the staff were friendly and they had a large and clean kitchen/dining area. The WiFi was very good and when I left for one night they let me keep my large bag at the hostel.

Some of the locks on the lockers were lose so did not work well, it would be helpful to have bath mats in the showers so it's not slippy when you get out. Could have more fans and extension cables to plug in phones etc as it was a little difficult. As there is no Aircon, a fan for each bunkbed is important. My drink in the fridge was drunk by someone and I left bread out that was labelled that was also eaten.

Willingness to give us shared room only with girls because of thinking about our safety. Room was nicely clean and beds comfortable. Showers were also clean and well maintained. The whole hostel seemed to be taken good care of. We felt very safe and comfortable :). Area is amazing, not far from interesting places in the middle of old town with nice bars around but still hidden from crowds, bigger supermarket just 5min walk. The whole hostel was very quiet, no noise from the streets either.. Do not expect any organized tours or social gatherings in the common area.I would say, this hostel is more for people who prefere to be more on their own and not looking forward to meet traveling mates at the hostel.

The only thing which was suprising, is that kitchen schedule says, that it open form 8:30-10:30 and then for lunch and dinner time, doesnt make any sense. There was also very limited number of cups/glasses (like 4pcs I think). But this are details, and who needs them if you can have breakfest at the beach / nice cafe around the corner :).
