This hostel was one of the best I have ever stayed in! It was very clean, people were super friendly, it was near everything, and it had a great atmosphere to meet new people! The lounge area downstairs was awesome and they gave you lockers with keys so I felt that my things were very safe. Great place!!

I liked the self-service kitchen and the ping pong table. The large space downstairs was cool to chill in even though the music was sometimes too loud and/or sucked. I didnt like the fatty lockers put smack in the middle of the room. It made it awkward to be in the room and have a conversation. I think a safe for your essentials and my dirty backpack on the floor would be just fine. the locker could go on the side...something. It felt sort of industrial. I've stayed in other hostels that felt homey and comfortable. This one felt like a dorm. A fun dorm, but still that utilitarian design.

Had a really good stay in the hostel. Really clean, excellent security, good bathrooms, staff were there 24hrs always friendly and really helpful :) We were 4 girls staying so always in a group, would not have liked the area so much if I'd been on my own though, felt a bit vunerable.

Vibrant hostel, with lots of facilities on offer. The location requires you to run the gauntlet of pickpockets of El Ravel on your way from La Ramblas, but better than the other rated hostels which are located in El Ravel!

It's awesome how they take anyone who wants to go out to bars and clubs every night, so anyone traveling alone will have no problem meeting people. The staff is really friendly and the overall atmosphere is really chill. I would definitely stay there again.

The place is very nice, clean, and has a good atmosphere (lots of young people, colorful and stuff). It's near the metro statio and La Rambla (ok, you'll have to walk a little, but c'mon, don't be a couch potato). I strongly recommend this hostel, as it is very safe also!

I stayed in a 4bed dorm and really enjoyed my stay here. The room was clean and the bathrooms where cleaned all day. There were individual lockers in the room to keep valuables. There are also washing machines and tumble dryers to hire. Free coffee was available all day, along with free internet as well as Skype. The breakfast was good and there is a kitchen to prepare meals during the day. The staff were super friendly and helpful and their advise was really useful. The hostel provides brochures and books on things to do in and around Barcelona. We initially only booked for a few days, but ended up extending our stay in the end. There is also a wondeful fresh fruit&veg shop across the road. The location is really good as the beach front is a 10min walk away and La Rambla is around the corner. Good value for money. I would definately recommend this hostel.

Staff were friendly. Hostel was only a 3 minute walk from the metro. Lockers had more than enough room. Breakfast could have been better.

This location was excellent and easy to find. There was limited room for luggage in the room but the security system for the room and locker were modern and electronic

next to the city without being right in the city, proximity to the montjuic offered nice afternoon walks to the park to chill out with an awesome view of the city. Helpful ppl behind the counters who knew where to go hv a gd party n not tourist traps. All in all, a pleasant experience. The bar, sweet place to meet ppl b4 hitting the streets. Recommend for someone who likes a bit of both party and chill out, loud and raucous when u need it, and quiet when it matters! kewl

The staff is super friendly and they make you feel at home. Beds are comfortable but not like in hotels of course, and don't expect to sleep very much because locals like to party in the streets late at night! It's very close to La Rambla, good restaurants, cool bars, museums, etc. I stayed there for 11 nights and I never complained about anything in the hostel.
