Pros:

Me encantó el trato del personal, amables y siempre dispuestos a echarnos una mano, además las camas eran super cómodas, y el baño privado me pareció muy bueno, sin duda repetiría mi estancia aquí. De hecho, no entiendo la gente que ponía en comentarios cosas negativas. Todo super limpio, amabilidad en todo momento, una zona con microondas, té, etc...

Oké voor mensen met een strak budget. Indien je de mogelijkheid hebt om iets meer uit te geven, doe dat dan.
Pros:

Toegankelijk met de metro en natuurlijk enorm goedkoop.

Cons:

Enorm oncomfortabel. Alle kamers bevinden zich op 1 verdieping, met de receptie pal in het midden. De receptie blijft 24/7 open, maar dat heeft al gevolg dat doorheen de nacht je het personeel continu bezig hoort zijn, er is geen geluidsisolatie dus goede nachtrust moet je niet verwachten. De hygiëne is matig.

Pros:

Czyste pokoje i łazienka
Dobra lokalizacja - stacja metra 5 minut od hostelu, wokół sporo sklepów i gastronomii, dosyć blisko do La rambla
Obsługa bardzo miła i pomocna

Cons:

Kontakt z obsługą delikatnie utrudniony - przy kwaterowaniu Pani nie mówiła po angielsku

O cazare OK la Barcelona
Pros:

Hotelul este la 3-5 minute de stația de autobuz/ metrou iar recepția este non-stop. Vă recomand autobuzul 46 de la TMB, 2,90 €. Se poate plăti cu cardul. Cazarea este ok pentru un Hostal.

Cons:

Nu a fost ceva grav in neregulă. Recomand cazarea pentru cei mai puțin pretențioși.

Genial experiencia
Pros:

Teniamos una habitación con 3 camas y baño. Sencilla y limpia. Hay una zona de office con hervidor de agua, nevera y tazas para desayunar. Y esta en el medio del barrio de Sant Antoni, que tiene mucho ambiente. Cerca del centro y de Sans. Muy bien comunicado por el metro. Me sorprendio gratamente calidad/precio. Hacia tiempo que no pagaba tan poco por un hostal

Hostal mi è piaciuto
Pros:

Posizione comoda, lo staff gentile, pulizia delle camere buona, c’era piccola cucina con le posate e piatti, distributore del acqua da bere, non c’era fon( almeno io non lo chiesto, avevo mio), la zona non troppo rumorosa.
