To be short, this was quite possibly one of the worst establishments I've ever stayed in, and, as my title suggests, the staff's incompetence was nothing short of breathtaking. Allow me to explain: SERVICE: First, when we checked into the hostel, it turned out that they had failed to reserve us a room for the final night of our stay... More

We have stayed here every year for the past 10 years. Would not stay anywhere else in Barcelona for value for money, location, and the kindest of staff. A++++++++++++++++++++ More

Very good choice! The rooms were clean and confortable and Mr. Thomas, the owner, is very kind and helpful! I recommend this hostal also for the great position: next to plaza de Catalunya, Las ramblas and bus station and metro. The neighborhood is almost safe and next to the hostal you can find a lot of cheap shops, pubs and... More

Very good place. Best quality / price ratio. The hostal seems to be very close to everything (MetroStation Universitat, Las Ramblas, Raval). Excellent Service. Mr Thomas, the owner, is a very nice person. It was very interesting hearing his advices and tales about Barça, of course while he was petting his wonderful (Cheshire) Cat. Everything seems to be set up... More

I've stayed in a wide range of hostels, some I would never go back to..Residencia Australia is okay, basic small rooms, we had a really small double bed. Walls are paper thin, so its a bit of a lottery as to if you get a good sleep or not and the walls shudder when people open their own doors. We... More

It is indeed a perfect location, walking distance to center. I saw "Su" (the lady who was at the reception) and the cat only once. The rooms and toilets are well cleaned. The lift is adorable, smaller than what you are used too, but efficient enough. No fuss, no mess, no question asked, no answer needed kind of place. Take... More

Finding cheap accomodation in central Barcelona in late summer can be extremely challenging, and it was a pleasant surpise to find this hostel located just off the northern end of Las Ramblas, and walkable to the main Shopping arcade, El Cortes Ingles as well as to the Eixample DIstrict, and Gaudi's Casa Mila. It is a basic no-frills hotel, so... More

Thomas the manager was very helpful and pointed out places to visit & avoid, plus explaining Metro cost etc, If your looking for a standard hotel this is not that type, its simply a place to sleep after a long day out, clean & tidy, will defo go back again. More

We booked this place last minute without doing a lot of research, so weren't sure what to expect. We booked a private suite and when we arrived, they told us the suite was in the owner's mother's apartment. While we were slightly worried about that at first, all of our worries were put aside when we met Maria - the... More
