“Convenience at Low Price!!!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012

Conveniently located in the center of Barcelona on the famous La Ramblas Street, this is the ideal Hostel for a solo traveler to explore Barcelona. The Hostel is ideally located about 150m from the Liceu Metro station and is easy to locate once you get out of the Metro station onto the La Rambla Street.

The Hostel is what it is and the rooms are small, but clean and tidy. It is just right if you are in Barcelona to see the city for most of the time and will use the room only for a short rest or to sleep late at night. I used the room only to store my luggage and have a short nap. I was touring the city the whole day and was in the room only for a short time. I even took in a Flamenco Show at the Tablas Cordobes which is about 400m from the hostel. I did not spend the night at the hotel as I had a midnight bus to Valencia.

The free wifi was an amazing thing. No interruptions and great service which made wifi calls and web surfing a pleasure. This is definitely a place to stay if you are a solo traveler and are in Barcelona only to party and see the sights. The hostel actually starts from the first floor onwards, there is a lift. They even give you an entrance key to the main door so that you can enter at any time in the night when the main doors are locked.

“Beautifully clean and fantastic position in heart of La Rrambla”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 November 2011

person found this review helpful

My partner and I stayed at this super little hostal for two days. We were not expecting much as it was so cheap and included breakfast so we were VERY pleased indeed to find a well run establishment - exceptionally clean and tho' the breakfast was nothing special it certainly sufficed. The staff are very helpful and friendly - we will certainly return and have no hesitation in recommending this Hostal to anyone looking for a cheap place to stay on La Rambla. We didn't have a 'view' but it was a small price to pay!

Room Tip: We stayed in P01 (they had upgraded us to a 3 bedded room) - it has no 'view' but we enjoyed...

“Construction going on...”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 March 2011

Hostel had a great location, but entrance easy to miss. Indian owned place, so expect service as you were in India. We were checking out early morning, before breakfast service, and were promised coffee and croissants packed in plastic, but the dude working that morning started shouting at us and did not believe the evening duty has promised us breakfast.
There is a construction going on in the next building, which lasted every day until 6 -7 pm. Luckily did not affect us since we were out all day and evening too, but cant recommend for anyone who wishes to rest. Rooms were ok, TV very small with limited channels (nothing in English). Bathroom good size and clean. Cheap place, but I cannot recommend this place.

“140 EUR for a small room with air shaft view.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 February 2011

person found this review helpful

It is ONLY okay if you are 21 and in Barcelona to get drunk. It is in the middle of the Ramblas street, so you are centrally located.
However, very small, not clean, uninterested stuff. No breakfast to speak of, it should be priced at 35 EUR.
This is it...:..........................not for people over 25.

“I do not recommend.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 July 2010

Another hostel in Barcelona because of volcanic ash. Unfortunately, not recommendable. Very expensive (average 170e / day). Quality Hotel low. Dirty linen. Dark room. Broken remote control. At night, loudly outside. The positive is only a nice lady from checkin. For this price, I would not recommend.
