Hostal de la Barra - Hostel

It was very, very clean. The beds were super comfortable. The place was really well decorated. The neighborhood was nice and there's a bunch of food across the street and next door. Short walk to lots of cool museums and the park. The only (slight) drawbacks were having to put on and take off the sheets and comforter cover yourself. It's just sown thing I don't like doing- especially the comforter cover! Agrhshs. And you take the sheets down to the reception floor. The other thing is that the kitchen is in the basement (check in ground floor; beds, bathrooms, and common area one floor above that). This means that you prepare breakfast on your floor and then carry your dishes down two stories to wash it. This and the sheets things basically just means that nothing gets done quickly. You can't race out of the hostel, and you can't carry all your stuff in one trip down the stairs. It's trivial, but I noticed it. Honestly though, the conditions were sooooo good that I would recommend to place anyway.
