  • Service: Rating of 4.2 out of 5

    "very good quality of service, a nice location, really peaceful & feels like home." source Hostelworld

  • Location: Rating of 3.5 out of 5

    "Only problem is with the location - contrary to what the description on hostelworld suggests, it is located in the outskirts of the city." source Hostelworld

    "The hostel is excellently located in a green area, very close to the subway that goes directly to las ramblas." source Hostelworld

    "Only one disadvatage is it's location far from Rambla and so on, but it is close from metro and bus stations." source Hostelworld

    "only drawback is the location. it's located on top of a very large hill and it's hard to find." source Hostelworld

  • Value

    "It is a bit far from the city center, but no big deal since you are 2 minutes from a metro station." source Hostelworld

    "I'm pretty impressed with the accommodation, awesome, for its price." source Hostelworld

  • Room

    "We wanted to book a twin room for three nights but the first night wasn't available so we booked two singles for the first night, only to find on arrival that all the rooms were twin rooms. So they unsympathethically made us pay for a room we didn't even use." source Hostelworld

    "If they let me stay here I would review it but unfortunatly this hostel stuffed up my booking and cancelled my reservation via email on the day of arrival, and then they gave our room to someone else (and was booked out when we went to rebook." source Hostelworld

    "two things to consider:there are only twin rooms which means the beds are separated and its not possible to move them,we took the mattresses off the beds and slept on the floor." source Hostelworld

    "On my final night my neighbours had a trance music room party and the staff at the desk seemed amused when i asked them to intervene." source Hostelworld

    "very nice, well designed rooms, intelligently fitted out, only the white light at night made it feel a bit like a hospital." source Hostelworld
