Had a great overnight stay here - highly recommend! Easy access to airport & city by tram (and felt safe walking back late at night). Friendly, helpful staff - upgraded us to a lovely room after booking went missing. Very clean and quiet everywhere.. room air-con was a life saver, & the excellent shower! Didn't get up in time for the free breakfast. Will stay again 👍

We booked this stay for one night because we were landing into Barcelona international airport late at night and we wanted to sleep and rest before we started our adventures. The breakfast was also a plus because before we checked out we were able to fuel ourselves. Overall great stay.

I had two bookings , one night for a 4 people on the 21 to the 22 Checking in was late at early morning , around 4:30 am , the hostel front desk person was really confused , took him kind time almost 30 min to complete the check in , was really uncomfortable, specially when he kept asking the others to go to the room and leave me with him to finish the check in , the next day checking in was really smooth with no issues Breakfast was ok I guess , not many options Price was really high for such accommodation, it was a hostel after all

Breakfast was complimentary and I must say it was alright. We stayed one night so I guess the hotel doesn’t need to provide face towels, tissue box. Overall it was a pleasant stay for a one night.

Mosquitoes. Lots of them in our room! No hand or face towels. Just 3 in 1 pump soap, that's the only amenity. No refrigerator. Breakfast is very basic but the coffee was decent. Beds were fairly comfortable.

This is a basic hotel about 5 minutes from the airport. Breakfast was free and was basic (meat slices, bread, cheese, fruits, coffee, juice, pastries) and is from 7 AM to 10 AM. The room was basic with bunk beds. Good value for the price. There is nothing much to do or see around the hotel so it is best used the night before the flight out.
