I liked the location but the price was a bit high for the quality of the Hostal.
It is very good ld dingy building. There was water faucet in the room with extremely slow drain and they never checked for 4 days. No trash cleanings. Area is extremely noisy at night
I stayed here to be in las ramblas. It's perfectly located. I had no issues at the hostal nor outside.
I had an individual room with shared bathroom. The shared bathrooms were clean and always available.
The staff, location, and wifi were great but unfortunately, the cleanliness lets this property down. Both the room and shared bathroom were not clean. I had dog pee on the walls which created a terrible smell. Draws and surfaces were not cleaned between guests. Rubbish wasn't cleared from the shower during 6-night stay leading me to think the shower itself was cleaned at all.
Really liked it here. Staff are nice and very helpful. Actually ended up staying a couple extra days. Would recommend. The only downside is it can get a little noisy at night being so close to the Ramblas.
Super friendly, great location. Only 1 small pillow each so was a little uncomfortable but the bed was so comfy. The downstairs lobby also smells of damp but the hostel itself doesn’t and is lovely
The property was right in the middle of everything that is Barcelona the staff were very helpful and very friendly ok the place is quiet old and the bathrooms were past their best but most of the buildings there are old I would definitely stay there again unless you prefer to stay in the most expensive hotel in Barcelona this is not for you

Very good location, affordable, but you have to share the bathroom, not in good condition.
Like - staffs are friendly and helpful
Didn't like - (1) the ceiling fan in the room is offset to one side where I was totally unable to sleep as it was so hot (2) no amenities in the toilet, need to buy my own shower gel and shampoo

Outside 2 panes of glass. Are missing and it looks intimidating
Inside the lobby there was a bad smell of urine
We decided to leave and booked another hotel for £165 and lost our money
We have already complained to your chat line about this and been offered 25 euros coupon
Quaint and charming. Warm staff. They let me upgrade for $15 so i had my own bathroom. Great location.

The hostal is well located and within easy access to every place. The room was comfortable and the personal friendly. The only bad thing was the street noise at night.

Victor did a very good job of helping us, trying to make our stay comfortable, and trying to make up for the loss of the former kitchen which we had used on previous stays.
We were very disappointed with the lack of the kitchen from the last stays. We felt that we should have been notified of the change when we booked.
It would be a very good idea if the guests could have access to the workers refrigerator and microwave without having to have the staff handle the items. Understood that construction was partially responsible for the inability to use it ourselves.
I could not stay morena than 5 minutes in this place. The staff is not friendly at all. You don’t feel welcomed. It’s like you are doing a favor to be there. I immediately called Expedia to cancel my reservation, but the hostel declined. I ended up reserving another place. The property looks old, sad and not welcoming. There Ian no vibe. Stay away from this place!!
