Valeria, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This property was basic, it's no fancy hotel but I would rather spend my money on food, drinks and things to do than accommodation. We booked a room with private bathroom for 2, the room actually slept 3. The bathroom was tiny but clean, the shower was very good
Rachel, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Totally fine budget place

This is not a fancy hotel, but it is totally fine to stay there. The bathroom is clean, the internet works well and location is ok. It is a good place to stay with low budget.

HYUNHEE, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Very quiet area, close to transport, restaurants, grocery stores. We received clean linens every day. The bathroom had new facilities. There was a common kitchen with dishes and silverware. A refrigerator and microwave, also a pot for hot water. Coffee, sugar, and tea bags also. WiFi was included. A pleasant stay. Security was good and advice given on planning our stay.

Eric, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Super convenient and comfortable stay, within walking distance to the main tourist attractions but also out of the way enough that we were able to escape some of the business and explore some more local spots. Very easy check and in and staff were friendly.

Jenny, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

VERY basic, 2 bathrooms in the corridor, not very clean and can be busy for all customers. No breakfast for a crappy room at 122euros/night. Also the walls are so thin that you can hear next rooms activities, TV or discussions. Don't expect privacy. I had a second reservation for the trip back that I could not cancel or be refunded for during the power shut-down on 28 April. Unbelievable...

10/10 Excellent

Great Hostal in Poble Sec

We spent 6 days in Barcelona and we got the room with private bathroom. The room was comfortable and fully equipped, the staff was extremely friendly and polite - available 24/7 - and the Hostal was in the perfect location in Poble Sec, a nice residential area super close to the city centre! The cost is definitely on the high end for an Hostal, but all in all we were really satisfied with our stay

will repeat IF i ever go back to Barcelona
