The location was very good: in the middle of the La Rambla (opposite of the McDonalds). The matrass of the bed was a little old, but I could sleep very well. The bathroom was the less part of the hostel, the shower was just big enough to stand, it was either not possible to pick up something of the ground while you standing in the shower. If there is a renovation coming, please upgrade that part. For the rest the shower was good to handle.

Breakfast was disgusting and a very small amount. There was a cockroach in our apartment. We only had one cooker in our apartment and it didn't work. The kitchens in other apartments were more equipped and had more (and working) cookers. The location, right on the rambla, was amazing.

Good location but hostel facilities were poor and you are not allowed to drink on site. Wouldn't stay there again.

It is one of the worst places I have ever stayed in my travel experience. Rooms in very bad condition, dirty cloths, no locker facility, very bad service from the staff. All they care about is money.

Helpful staff. Tiny shower cubicle- suitable for thin people only. The hostel has an industrial and dark feel due to the unpainted concrete walls everywhere.
