i liked that the room had its own shower and toilet, rather than shared with the whole corridor. i was also able to do a late check in after 11Pm, its value for money in terms of what you get. breakfast had a nice spread considering its a hostel. the locker for each bed is quite spacious! Luggage room also available. for a overnight stay it was a great cheap option for a bed, shower and breafkast before continuing travels.

Nothing specifically but there is no lobby for socialising per se, like in some hostels where you find a games room etc, the reception area is the hangout area aswell.

The properties location is really good, not in town but by a few bus stations which was great for us - also quiet at night time! Breakfast was really great, lots of options available. Rooms were clean and comfortable. There was also a mini supermarket around the corner which we used on a few occasions!

There were alot of pigeons in the outdoor area so it would be difficult to enjoy breakfast outside. We had also had some travellers check into our dorm rooms at 3:30am, i understand they have 24 hour check in but there should be some type of rules or considerations given for minimal lights and sound. The images make it look like a social hostel but its quite quiet and most people keep to themselves, this would be a plus for most people but for us we would’ve liked to chat.

There is a large lockable draw under the beds which was great for luggage. Shower was good if a little annoying, it has a push button so you have to push it in every minute or the water turns off. Included breakfast of cereal, fruit, bread and sliced meats was decent.

No curtain on individual beds for privacy and sleeping. We don't have 'youth' hostels in Australia, I didn't realise it meant there would be busloads of children staying at the hostel. Also no food or drinks allowed in the rooms seems excessive, makes sense if it's kids but at 31?

- Good location; if you come from the airport, just get off at the Maria Cristina metro station (the hostel is less than 1 km away), if you go to the airport, just go to the Zona Universitaria metro station (about 2 km away from the hostel) - There are power plugs on each bed (one for charger and one for USB cable) - Comfortable beds and mattresses - There is a good toilet inside the room (an important point, the shower is good) - Breakfast is good and varied - Professional and regular cleaning - Helpful staff

- The most negative and annoying point: the AC (although effective, it's quite noisy all night) - A lot of youth at the moment I went (mid-July), it felt like a summer camp school

The staff and the people in my room were friendly, the breakfast was nice. The location isn't central, but there is a big mall on the other side of the street, and a bus stop very close to the hostel, and since Barcelona has great public transport even at night, the location wasn't a downside.

The check in process is really long, so you have to wait a while if there are people in front of you. Otherwise, it's a youth hostel, so it has all the expected downsides of a hostel (people arriving back to their room late, no privacy curtains on beds, etc.) Also, our bathroom door didn't have a lock, but it wasn't an issue as we let each other know when we'd be using it.

Inside the room was a toilet separate from the shower; quiet footlockers; individual power outlet; strong WiFi throughout; and large guest kitchen. The hostel is short walking distance from Numancia tram stop (and longish walking distance straight up from Sants Station). The inclusive breakfast is worthwhile despite the overcooked mini croissants :) I really liked the coffee machine which offered a selection of hot drinks. The hostel has ample lobby sitting and ground floor terrace.

The individual nightlight projects straight out from the wall and since the beds have no privacy curtains this "reading light" was the furthest thing from private. The room only had one chair and no coat hooks.

- Among other hostels on booking for the same price it was the only property providing breakfast, which is very convenient; - Breakfast itself was quite nice; - The administration is working till midnight, and after midnight there is a security guard, and you still could check-in after midnight; - WiFi was working fine everywhere, in both the room and main area; - A bed goes with a locker; - Separately it is possible to rent a safe for 2 / 4 Euro, depending on size; - the staff is very polite and helpful;

It belongs to the international YH association and feels as such in a good way - no partying like some of the other hostels and mature people don't feel out of place. All are welcome here. The breakfast included was good enough for the price. I would stay again.

The ladder for climbing up to the upper bed is so narrow it doesn't serve its only purpose. On my arrival the bed was still covered in the previous person's linen - not a big deal and I didn't make any fuss but not great Impression either.

A very good choice for those who want to spend their holidays actively and get the best out of sightseeing and finally sleep in a comfortable bed in an economically affordable hostel, and meet travellers from all over the world. The breakfast was good and Wifi was of high speed. Bed sheets were clean and the lockers under the bed were a plus.

It can be noisy late at night.

The hostel is not all that far from Sants Estació on the left hand side of Carrer de Numància before you get to the Avenida Diagonal. I initially walked past the entrance (it is down a slope) the check-in was relatively quick and here I got the sheets for the bed. The lifts were handy as was the ensuite. The computers were useful and free but don't think about gaming on them... The breakfast that was included in the price had an extensive range and as long as you were able to get up, was always enjoyed as were the occasional pigeons that joined us in the outside courtyard. The free storage luggage was appreciated again - it's very handy when you find a hostel that does that.

Having to remember to get the damage deposit back...
