France FEMALE 25-30 Oct 6, 2025 Atm 100%

Despite arriving late and very last minute I was received by a very nice old lady. Had a good night, price is decent for the location.

Not conveniently located, overall really creepy vibe (in a prison-y sense). Also, a couple people (staff and guests) with really deep, sick-sounding coughs which was very off-putting. Sorry to hear if you aren’t well but guests especially should consider not sharing a 12 person dorm with strangers if that’s the case. Two generous stars as cleanliness wasn’t bad (by hostel standards). Ok for a quick one-night stay if you’re not fussy. Otherwise steer well clear.

Está todo terriblemente sucio y el pasotismo de la administración es increíble. El acceso a las literas de arriba no es precisamente fácil tampoco y la privacidad es nula con una simple cortinita. Lo único bueno del hostal es su ubicación y nada más.

They made me pay 15 € because i checked in later at night. It say nothing about this when you book, and it really doesnt make sense to have to pay to sleep less hours when they have a 24hour reseption. They steal your money on every opportunity here. The room didn’t have aircondition even tho we booked with aircon, so it was terrible hot in the room. The bed was okey, but not amazing, and the sheet had stains. Also no vibe to get to know people who stay there. I would never stay here again.

Maintenance is missing, screes from the lockers are not fine and not confortable to use, under the bed is dirty, get down from the upper bed is hard. I would expect all this on a super cheap hosteal it was not actually that cheap

Personnel peu aimable. Aucun accès à ma prise (pour tous si vous avez votre lit suspendu). Pas assez de douche pour l’ensemble des voyageurs. Le lit convient parfaitement avec un rideau. Situé dans une rue mal fréquenté à première vu.

Alojamiento muy práctico y cerca de la estación de tren Barcelona Sants. El personal fue muy amable.

Hostel was clean but dormitory was cramped. There was no social area apart from a rather pokey kitchen in the lobby. I stayed in another hostel in Barcelona which was beautiful and included breakfast and only cost 1 euro more! It's within easy walking distance of the main railway station, so if you need to catch an early train from Barcelona Sants maybe consider. Otherwise would not recommend.

The staff and location of the hostel was great, I was able to walk to Sants Station easily. You can tell they make an effort to keep the location clean. However, you get for what you pay for at this hostel. Most of my issues during the stay were issues outside of the hostels control. Like the noisy neighborhood and a man that smelled so bad I had to change beds. The hostel itself has everything you need for a short simple stay, just the place to rest your head.

they speak no English at all, but the receptionist was there when I arrived and we could somehow communicate, no common room and not really cosy or clean, but for one night okay

Sabéis que está muy sucio, sobre todo los lavabos y duchas. Lo más sucio que he visto en mi vida. Es un sitio muy incómodo, no hay un solo lugar para sentarse y quitarse los zapatos o para poder sacar cosas de la mochila. Si te toca arriba en la litera no hay manera de sacar tus cosas con la mínima comodidad. Espantoso todo, no vuelvo ni recomiendo.

A last resort option. Only stay here if you have to. One thing good was it was close to a train station. No English speaking staff (I’m not fluent in Spanish but know the basics which didn’t help). Mostly Middle aged local men who spoke loudly in the room with the light on. They were not respectful of anyone else in the hostel. I’ve stayed in my fair share of bad hostels but this is by far the worst. Shower also didn’t work. Security is basically non existent.

Not having access to luggage during stay was highly frustrating - you lose access to your keys as soon as you lock up your belongings. And to re-enter the building, you have to use their intercom to speak to older women at reception, where you had the door opener, just to have your keys handed back to you to work on for a better hostel experience.

Me and my friend didn't like it much there would only stay there for an emergency night... the security isn't good you need to give the Kay's back every time you leave and anyone is able to take the Kay and go on your belongings... we were two girls with 5 guys together... and the shower and bathroom facilities weren't really clean...
