Small room, but given the location it was reasonable. The person at the front desk helped carry our suitcases up, and also when we checked out they carried them back down. Evan I think was there for our check in and was extremely welcoming. Gave us a rundown of the city and what is worth seeing. Great hospitality. Overall our stay was good~

Good service and the area is nice and clean. Walking distance to the beach and near to the airport. The only thing that I recommend to the owner is to have a better cleaning of the shower.

Conveniently Located
The hostel is located directly off La Ramblas, making it very convenient to go out and explore the city, either by walking or by public transportation. The private room was clean, but the shower and bathroom were quite small. The door to the bathroom was frosted glass, so privacy was a bit of an issue.

6/10 INSANELY small, can barely fit 2 carry on suitcases and 2 people in the room. The “bathroom” is a sink, toilet and shower in 1. When you shower, the water soaks the toilet and sink and anything in it. The mattress is hard as a rock. Great location, walkable to everything. Staff was nice and helpful
