Customer Reviews Barcelona - Be Hostels Mar

Generally speaking, staff in Barcelona are not so kind compared to those of others. They answer quite with limited information. They answer the question but tried to cut next question. However, they spend time in doing his/her something at desk. Besides, walking tour is to be provided at free of charge. But, the man emphasize the donation. Moreover, one guy namely 'Keen(?) put us away to other walking tour group because we were only two. He said that people usually want to be in a big group. But, he did not check with us before puting us away to other team.

Wonderful experience. I stayed with my family (4 children and 3 adults). It was great way for us to see Barcelona and for the children to learn about Youth Hostels. Highly recommend this hostel. My only negative comment is that the directions for public transportation from the airport to the hostel do not appear to be accurate. We took RENFE train as indicated but there is no station named Sants Estacio (the train station is Sant Barcelona and attached metro station is Sants Estacio).

There is a kitchen in the hostel, but it´s way to small for the ammount of people who can stay in the hostel. People put stuff in the fridge without covering it. The fridge is to small for your groceries, if you buy for more than one day at a time. There is only one microwave, and one place for cooking.

We liked Be Mar very much, central to most places, with the metro or foot.

decent place. Good electronic lockers, free wiki, clean beds and showers. Location is not the best. Kitchen is also small. The rest is all good.

A little sketchy neighbourhood, but otherwise great location, close to La Ramble, Placa Catalunya and 15 min to the Camp Nou by metro.

Off season I think there were better options for a cheaper price. One of the "eight room" dorms was a through room so effectively 20+ people but cost more than a 12 person dorm. Cannot fault staff however who were very welcoming and accomodating

We had a fantastic stay at this hostel! Staff were super friendly & helpful. Showers & bathroom were clean. The kitchen however did get pretty messy with all the people but was cleaned up very quickly. The location was right off of la rambla & right next to a metro stop so everything was easily accessible. The party crawl they had was so much fun & a great way to meet other travelers. The only complaint was that it got very noisy on Thursday night so if anyone was expecting to get some sleep they probably wouldn't have! Overall, amazing stay! Will definetly be back next time I'm in beautiful Barcelona!
