Klimaanlegget er ute. 40 grader uten klimaanlegg. Stedet lukter dårlig jeg mistenker på grunn av mugg og fuktighet. På kjøkkenet er maten veldig dårlig, nesten ikkje mat, og insekter er på toppen av maten. Jeg har mange bilder, men klart ikke å leste opp.

Et noget slidt hotel, personalet var ikke særlig smilende og servicemindet. vi havde booket 4 nætter, men valgte at tjekke ud efter 3 Under opholdet måtte vi ikke længere bade på vores badeværelse, så måtte 2 etager op for at bade. varmen virkede ikke optimalt, så brændende varmt på værelset om natten. Dyrt for så ringe værelser

It’s not a bad place to stay on a budget, especially if you’re traveling solo, need privacy, and are going to be outside most of the time. The housekeepers brought me fresh towels, toilet paper, soap and a new trash bag on mornings when I needed to sleep through the service period in the morning. The lounge downstairs had a microwave that I wish I knew about earlier (for leftovers — lots of great affordable restaurants in the vicinity). The hotel’s within walking distance from bus and train stations that can easily take you to attractions like Parc Güell and the Arc de Triomf, and the area gets quiet after midnight. The blackout curtains don’t exactly block all light so you may need to sleep with an eye mask for a sound night’s rest. My biggest complaint is the wi-fi connection being weak in my room and inconsistent throughout the hotel. Foreign travelers like myself often use eSIMs with limits in data, and I would’ve preferred to use Wi-Fi in the apartment to chart my daily plans, access the Internet, etc. Overall, it’s ideal for someone with a hostel budget looking for privacy.

It was located in an area easy to walk to any kind of food, breakfast and lunches. Not a fancy place, but clean. Small rooms like most European rooms. Our room had a very small window, facing another building. It was very good for people that are not in the room only to sleep.

I stayed in room 115, it was an internal room with no natural light. The only window in the room opened onto an internal fire escape, and had bars on the window. The walls were thin, and you could hear waste running down the drains. I'd recommend taking earplugs if you intend to stay here. On a plus, the staff were friendly when I interacted with them, and the hotel is centrally located only a few minutes away from the metro

Fuimos a un concierto y solo pasamos una noche alli, la habitacion un poco claustrofobica, porque solo tenia una ventana sin luz que no daba a la calle, el desayuno poca cosa , pero para 6 euros no se puede pedir mucho mas. Hacia frio y tuvimos que pedir otra manta, porque solo habia una manta delgada y un cobertor. Y en el ascensor solo podian subir 2 personas, porque era pequeño. Pero bueno en un hostal tampoco puedes pedir mucho mas

Exactly what you would expect for the price. I had a nice stay here & would use again for short stays. It is an excellent place to stay for the surroundings- Carrer de Blai is 6 yards away, line 2 metro a 2 minute walk. You can walk in to city centre in 15/20 minutes. Great location!

My biggest complaint is the wi-fi connection being weak in my room and inconsistent throughout the hotel. Foreign travelers like myself often use eSIMs with limits in data, and I would’ve preferred to use Wi-Fi in the apartment to chart my daily plans, access the Internet, etc. Overall, it’s ideal for someone with a hostel budget looking for privacy.
It’s not a bad place to stay on a budget, especially if you’re traveling solo, need privacy, and are going to be outside most of the time. The housekeepers brought me fresh towels, toilet paper, soap and a new trash bag on mornings when I needed to sleep through the service period in the morning. The lounge downstairs had a microwave that I wish I knew about earlier (for leftovers — lots of great affordable restaurants in the vicinity). The hotel’s within walking distance from bus and train stations that can easily take you to attractions like Parc Güell and the Arc de Triomf, and the area gets quiet after midnight. The blackout curtains don’t exactly block all light so you may need to sleep with an eye mask for a sound night’s rest.

Klimaanlegget er ute. 40 grader uten klimaanlegg. Stedet lukter dårlig jeg mistenker på grunn av mugg og fuktighet. På kjøkkenet er maten veldig dårlig, nesten ikkje mat, og insekter er på toppen av maten. Jeg har mange bilder, men klart ikke å leste opp.

Personale molto attento alle richieste dei clienti, posizione comoda per gli spostamenti, la colazione un po' scarna e purtroppo il nostro bagno non aveva una finestra o una ventola. Ma nel complesso consigliato se il vostro soggiorno è per vedere la città!

Fuimos a un concierto y solo pasamos una noche alli, la habitacion un poco claustrofobica, porque solo tenia una ventana sin luz que no daba a la calle, el desayuno poca cosa , pero para 6 euros no se puede pedir mucho mas. Hacia frio y tuvimos que pedir otra manta, porque solo habia una manta delgada y un cobertor. Y en el ascensor solo podian subir 2 personas, porque era pequeño. Pero bueno en un hostal tampoco puedes pedir mucho mas

This hotel was amazing! The beds were very comfortable and the price is very reasonable. It also has amazing staff that are super welcoming, kind and always available to help. The location is super close to the beach, the metro, the mountains, and is placed on an amazing street full of great restaurants! Totally recommend

Nice location, nice staff. I did not eat breakfast, just coffee, no coffee in the rooms. Small room but I was solo. You leave your key with the staff when you leave the hotel, I was fine with it, other hotels in Europe also do it. Small bathroom for sure.
