Reviews of Rambla & Catalunya

05 September 2010

Liked: When I finally got a bed it was fairly comfortable, and free muffins and juice for Breakfast

Disliked: When the room was too full - 20 people, after booking a 12 bed dorm, the staff at the desk seemed not to be bothered to sort our beds out! The first night I had to sleep on a mattress on the floor, then when we asked to move rooms they said, just claim a bed. The fans in the room on the wall were constantly on and hardly any of them had protective grills on, so you could easily have an accident. Not worth what we paid for.

Liked: A lot of people.

Disliked: The rooms were incredibly dense..no room to move between the bunkbeds.

10 August 2010

Liked: It was the cheapest available at the time of booking, it was also located on a good road, although abit far from the beach. Also located within easy walk of Diagonal metro station.

Disliked: It was very dirty and cramped. There was mould growing on the walls and the beds were stained. The shower door had come off (the bathroom was mixed). There was no atmosphere, just think of it only as a cheap (but grubby) bed and its alright, but don't think of it as anymore. Livable, not enjoyable.

21 June 2010

Liked: Near Placa Catalunya, easy access, open all night. But not very clean and the beds are very old and used so not comfi at all if you stay there. (I was in a dorm). Staff wasn't very friendly and helpful (there was only one really nice girl). You'll be happier with your own breakfast...

21 June 2010 Richard would recommend this property

Liked: The property really does have character to it. All was clean, shower facilities/toilets are all private and seemed to always be availible. For the price we paid (12 Euros a night) I would recommend it.

13 June 2010 Ilana would recommend this property

Liked: verrrry cheap! quite well located, although i would've preferred to be a little further down the rambla, closer to the beach and the gothic area. but it wasn't a bad walk and very close to the metro. it wasn't the nicest hostel i've ever stayed in but for the unbeatable price, it was totally worth it. good clean kitchen area, decent breakfast, and the rooms totally decent as well. i was in a 10 person, and it was a little crowded, but the balcony was quite nice and there were plenty of lockers. i also met tons of people. only complaints are that the kitchen - which is the only common area - closes at midnight so if you want to hang out late there's not really a place, which also leads to people hanging out in the bedrooms at all hours when i was trying to sleep. also, they advertise free internet but all the computers were broken and there are no locutorios in the area. other than that, totally fine hostel for the money!

07 June 2010 Salman would recommend this property

Liked: Internet was nowhere in the visibility. Breakfast is some bread and butter. Make sure that you reach early from B/F, else juices and almost all other stuff will be over (and they hardly replenish it). If you want to use a locker, please carry a personal key and lock with you (they won't even provide one for rental). Acco. was okay (except for a small gentleman's toilet, which had no locks from inside). Overall, it was worth the 14 Euros you paid.
