Exactly what you would expect for the price. I had a nice stay here & would use again for short stays. It is an excellent place to stay for the surroundings- Carrer de Blai is 6 yards away, line 2 metro a 2 minute walk. You can walk in to city centre in 15/20 minutes. Great location!

Noisy, uncomfortable beds

This room was very noisy. You could hear everything through the walls it sounded like the neighbor having a conversation was in the room with me. Doors a slamming all throughout the night. The bed was very uncomfortable. The shower was minuscule. Imagine the smallest shower you've ever seen in your life meant for a child and this is probably smaller than it. The blankets on the bed Had large burn holes in them and looked dirty. I don't know if they ever wash the blankets every day I would take the blankets off and put them on the floor but they would put them back on the bed. There is no phone in the room so if you have to get in touch with anyone at the front desk you have to go down to the front desk directly

Ok property and value for money, however strange policy for reception asking you to leave your room key with them every time you go outside. Seems like a strange request for a hostel to ask its guests.

Noisy, ok for a budget and location

I stayed in room 115, it was an internal room with no natural light. The only window in the room opened onto an internal fire escape, and had bars on the window. The walls were thin, and you could hear waste running down the drains. I'd recommend taking earplugs if you intend to stay here. On a plus, the staff were friendly when I interacted with them, and the hotel is centrally located only a few minutes away from the metro

A little worn

Very small room with rather worn furnishings (see the photo) and a smell of smoke in hallways. One night I was woken at 2am by the room next door using the shower. It sounded like it was in my room. Reception staff were friendly and helpful. Aircon was very useful.
Desk in room chipboard with peeling laminate.

Broken shower faucet in 314, told the staff and nothing was done. The tub fills over and does not drain when taking a shower, if i wanted a bath that would be great but not during shower. Good room and great staff close to gothic quarter, but overall facilities are below par.

The shower is smaller than the shower in my RV, which made it nearly impossible to use. The bathroom is so small I had to sit sideways on the toilet. Only 1 battery for the tv and a/c control so had to keep switching it back and forth. Breakfast is grossly overpriced, it just juice, coffee, and bread.

Decent and comfortable rooms with a fully functional en suite in private rooms(including a toilet unlike other "Hostals") Very comfortable bed considering the price point, what really let it down was the cleanliness- what looked like a fair amount of large blood spray dots on the back of the room door? A lot of dust on high level areas, a lot of hairs in the shower and curtain. Bathroom shower was very dated equipment and also the shower tray was cracked and damaged and requires replacement. Overall a decent place for the price and location with plenty of amenities close by
