Desafortunadamente la rambla está en reparación y el ambiente por sus alrededores no era muy seguro, sin embargo el personal del hostal muy amable , mi única molestia es que no hay escaleras y son como 4 pisos tampoco se puede ir en los meses de verano pq no hay aire acondicionado .

Due to recent reviews we almost booked else where and I’m very glad we didn’t. The room was great and spacious with a private bathroom and small patio. There was even a fan put in the room for us which helped at night. The location was great

This is a family run gem right in the heart of the city. It will not be beaten on price and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Close to major attractions and shopping we found our stay there very pleasant.

You'll get what you paid for. Staff are friendly, rooms are clean, location is very convenient, on a side street near Rambler. No air con, can be quite hot in summer. Rooms are on 3rd floor, no elevator. Not an ideal location for seniors or family with small kids. At night, the area is a bit noisy and you might not feel 100% safe strolling around.

We did not stay. The hostal's front desk is on a 2nd floor, no elevator but the escalator was acceptable. To go to the room we were assigned to, there was a narrow and uncomfortable escalator. There was no A/C in the room and no bathroom either. On top of all these inconveniences the area was bad an extremely unsafe. WE DID NOT STAYED AND ENDED LOOSING THE MONEY

Had a weird smell from walking in the door, very run down and no air con (not ideal in summer). The street it is on smelt like urine.

They never contacted us. Didn’t even end up staying there because didn’t know if our room was even still available or could get a late check in. No communication.

This is a very well located, friendly, clean hostel. The prices are high for what it is, but that is Barcelona prices for you! Surprisingly quiet given its central location

A family tragedy had occured when the daughter of the couple that was booked for the room, had been tragically killed. Tried to cancel in thus extreme situation, but the property refused. I understand policy, but in this case it wasn't a normal situation, and no considerstion was given.

Overall great for a few days of stay, but the water leaked through the wall and onto the room every time we showered. Other than that everything was great

Excellent location, just few minutes walk away from the busy La Rambla Boulevard & La Boqueria Market for food and shopping. Friendly staff, easy check in and out. Great value for the location, have a very homey feel.

An ideal place to stay for a few nights to rest, centrally located to the key attractions within an hour walking distance, friendly staff and clean and tidy rooms and bathrooms. Just make sure to bring some sleeping earbuds with you when you get to sleep since the rooms are located in a noisy neighbourhood and be wary if you got heavy luggage since there are no lifts. Overall, I'd happily stay here again.

There is no elevator and our room is on the 4th floor. If you’re travelling with heavy luggage then this property is not for you.

A clean guesthouse in a good position just off the seaward end of La Rambla. The staff were very polite and welcoming. Even though I cannot speak Catalan or Spanish, and they did not speak English, we managed to understand each other!
