Nifty Barcelona

I guess I didn’t realize this was a hiatal, but I must say, the service was great! They stayed late to let me in and gave me the key and showed me around. The room was fine, showers had plenty of hot water, kitchen well-stocked, but the toilets were a bit small. The location is good, not far from the main touristy things. Ala in all, it was a good stay.

Ótima localização!

Maravilhoso! Super central! Tem um armário para colocar suas coisas, e a mala pode ficar embaixo da cama. Tem tomada na parede ao lado do travesseiro com um espacinho legal pra deixar o celular carregando durante a noite. O checkout é super simples, basta deixar a chave na recepção. Muito legal!

Hostellin sijainti kävelyetäisyydellä keskustasta ja lähellä metroa plussaa. Hostellin henkilökunta ystävällistä. Huoneessa lukolliset kaapit ja vuodevaatteet valmiiksi sänkyyn sijattuna.

Nice hotel in good location in Barcelona but...

Everything was that as i expected but one thing is terrible. I need room only for rest after busy day spend on traveling. In the house i found information about hours of silence. It was from 22 to 6. But about 1:00 a.m. girl from reception very loud talking with one of guest. The cnoversation was very happy, girl laughting very loud and she aweked me her voice.. I went to the kitchen and I pointed out that interfere in the middle of the night. She apologized and close the door. In the room i still hear conversation (man picks up the girl and she was in heaven). Sorry, after You awake me i dont sleep all night.

立地は最高だが・・・・

場所が分かりにくいので事前に調べていくといい。立地は最高だがエレベータは使えない、せまい階段のみ。全体的に全てが狭かった。女性のドミに泊まったが深夜１時に音楽をかけておしゃべり、３時にシャワーを浴びる人など客層は良くなかった。

Health Concern

My wife and I were kept up all night as the bed was infected with bed bugs. We were both scratching all night from head to toe and had bites the next morning. I had seen past hotel reviews complaining about the same issue from previous occupants. Further more the owner of the hotel admitted to me twice that he had previously had the health issue in the past in other shared rooms. We asked to get fairly compensated back and the hotel owner rejected our request. On a positive note, the hotel was close to public transportation and the hotel staff were very helpful.

Staff do hostel muito simpático. Quartos limpos e ambiente muito familiar. Perto da zona centro de Barcelona, e calmo ao mesmo tempo para descansar. Ponto negativo: casas de banho, muito pequenas. Wi-fi muito rápida, e cozinha sempre limpa. Bastante boa a relação preço/qualidade!
