The hostel location is great to the none-touristy areas very local eateries, bars and close enough to the other "touristy" things you can or have to do. The staff is super friendly and helpful. Plus, the room have air conditioning (AC) which is awesome. HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!!!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Needs basic upgrades, find private room elsewhere

Negatives: Bathroom ceiling tiles have mold, there are no full length mirrors in the private rooms, internet is very slow, no hooks on door or wall to hang towels in private rooms, hallways are VERY humid with no fans in the bathrooms for shower, there are a LOT of steep stairs. They don’t participate in any typical hostel actives (eg family dinners, bar crawl, walking tours etc) or help you find them. Positives: it’s near the metro, plenty of people on the street (even late at night), good tapas across the street, discount codes for all the local attractions in the lobby, free (bad) coffee 24/7, occasional fruit offered at breakfast was so nice to have as a snack (they should ditch the bad muffins & pastry and stick to oranges, bananas, and toast). Good kitchens—very clean! The dorm rooms looked nice and we would return to them in a group because the prices here are low compared to other spots. But we wouldn’t do a private room here again.

It might not be for everyone, because it's not a hotel, but a hostel, so you need to know that you will share bathroom and other facilities (even if you have your own room, which I did). You will probably also need to climb stairs, so, if you have a problem with that, you need to alert them in advance. That said, you are getting what you paid for, so, if you're working on a tight budget, this is great. It's a short walk from the nearest Metro, there are several nice restaurants and take-aways in the area, it was mostly quiet (it's a hostel, remember), and the staff were friendly and accommodating.

It was a very convenient location. Super close to everything. Bars, restaurants, and a concert venue all in walking distance. The free coffee, and breakfast and water were super nice and for a hostel has a lot of showers and bathrooms. Even a terrace. Most of the staff were super helpful too.

My stay was good. But in my view they should improve the conditions of their rooms for example put light in every bed. I would say also they have to do something about their toilet and bathroom to reduce the noise because from the room where I was I could hear the noise when people took shower or used the toilets.

In the heart of Gothic Quarter. We had some wifi issues because we were in the room in the back and we kind of felt abandoned, but overall it was a decent place to stay at.

The staff is amazing. It is a clean place to stay. You have free coffe, tea, watter and apples available everyday. The room was cosy, except no windows (wel, it had a window but it was blocked by the hostel add outside of the building). The breakfast could be much better. Only cheese, ham, slices of bread, milk, coffe and cereals. Well, it does it job but you feel like something is missing, especially when you need to full you stomach before get out. But overall, it is a good place to stay one night. Clean, safe, good bath, and something to eat before you leave. Except for the price. I paid 68€ with no private bathroom. With less than that, Ive been in another big cities (like Madrid, Milan, or Lisbon) in much better condictions (private bathroom, much better breakfast, TV, double bed...). If we've paid less 30€, I'd give it 5 stars.
