What people say
Very kind, thoughtful, generous, highly professional staff provided cosy and nice rest in Barcelona. Rooms are very clean. Very comfortable location in peaceful part of Eixample, close to all sights of Barcelona (Placa de Catalunya, Gaudi buildings, Sagrada de Familia, etc.) - by 10-15 minutes walking and can be named as center of all Barcelona. Bus stop on the opposite site of the Balmes street can ship you to Pl. Catalunya for 5 min and other different places of this city. Little supermarket . all reviews »
The woman that works there, Yolanda, was really friendly. Everything was clean, and they actually made our beds every morning. It's not really a hostel, just a home where they rent rooms, so our was really big and with a nice balcony. We where allowed to leave our suitcases in the room and take the keys after the check out until we had to catch the plane. Everything was perfect.
Nice location, bus stop is right opposite the hostal. There is a shop downstairs where you can get food and drinks until late. Owner is very friendly and helpful despite not speaking English at all. Wifi works very well.

There's no name or number on the door, you have to ring on the 1º 1ª of the number 90 (the number is on the intercom).
Difficult to find as there is no sign or anything on the street that shows where it is. However, it also makes you feel more like at home in a way.
- Bad sound isolation - you could clearly hear the neighbours even speaking normally
- Old and cheap furniture - some of them need urgent replacement.
just a little speaking in english.
My night lamp did not work.
A bit cold.
There's no sign in the building, you need to look for number 90 and ring on the 1st apartment.
Hard to find, no signs outside. The room was smaller than promised.
