A great experience, extremely welcoming and very kind welcome, warm atmosphere. Too short to bond with people but I would go back for a few more days

Great
very welcoming and helpful staff

We decided to go with my best friend to Barcelona. The comfort of this hostel is ok and the staff are very friendly and smiling. The entrance to the building is beautiful and atypical for a youth hostel. A cozy atmosphere reigns!

Great
Warm welcome, pleasant staff, well located and arranged

We were greeted by very friendly people, who gave us information and tips on the city. The atmosphere seemed warm even though there were few guests and especially few young customers when we arrived. The hostel is clean, but a little cold in the dormitory at the time of All Saints. A door between the dormitory of 8 places and that of 4 places would be good to reduce nuisances (snoring ...) and have a little heating. We were surprised to have to pay 3 euros per person to leave our stuff a few hours in addition to our reservation ...

Great place, very nice staff and especially well situated!

The place was so nicely organized, clean and welcoming! I would definitively go back. The situation of the hostel is also amazing: walking distance from most interesting areas. The fact that it was open 24h was very convenient - life goes on "late" in Barcelona, so you need to be able to get back at late times, while respecting your co-guests. And that was totally possible! The staff was welcoming and always ready to help.
