When visiting spain, i would without a doubt suggest this place and would stay there again. I came here with he friend, but if you travel alone, you can easily meet people. The location is unbeatable as well. Las Ramblas are visible from the moment you step out. There, at all times, made me feel quite secure. It was immaculate, and the staff cleaned the bathrooms and rooms daily. Wellstocked and has tastier kitchen area. They are ecoconscious. Compost and recycle. Worth it. Even deciding to stay at ten years would definitely choose this hotel because it was so good.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here! The friendly staff immediately made me feel at home. We had some enjoyable conversations and even performed a little dance with them at one point, hahah. I spent two nights here, and i intend to return there. The owner is incredibly kind and treats his coworkers and visitors well. Additionally, they employ excellent measures to maintain the companies greenness. Everything from the dorms to the common areas is cozy.

This place has a good location, and the service is very affordable. The staff is also very helpful and friendly.

Ill return there the next time i visit. The best location to explore the city, 3 minutes from plaza catalunya and the famous la Rambla. It has the main metro lines literally outside the front door. Excellent reception service, lots of insider tips and wellsuited information, dont be afraid to ask, they are there for you and for whatever needs you may have, super friendly. I got to meet very nice people and spend time talking in the comfortable living room. Both the toilets and showers were clean and quiet. Highly recommended.

What a pleasant surprise! I was in search of something affordable but highquality and safe while visiting barcelona, and what i received was incredibly welcome! Im not sure where to begin because this location has so much to offer. I have nothing but praise for my stay and had utter satisfaction. Everything was fantastic thanks to the location, accommodations, or freebies. There are no disappointments here! Cant wait to return for about ten weeks!.

Its modest but adequate! The location is excellent, the lockers are spacious, and there are plenty of storage options. The kitchen is quite small, several of the toilet and shower doors are broken or difficult to open or close, some of them are damaged or hard to close. Shower heads are mounted on the walls, you have to press the button about every ten seconds, while when you want to enter the hostel, however, it requires you to ring the bell each time. Although it doesnt appear that the rooms would let any sounds through, its actually quite peaceful. It isnt a party hostel and the vibe is not particularly social, but if you enjoy calming surroundings, this is ok. 7 out of 10.

4.6/516 Mar 2023

Excellent! My son and i had a great time there. Small but very welcoming, peaceful, and secure. One of the few hostels that is familyfriendly. Not suited for party animals. Particularly nichola and hamed working at night, the staff members are helpful. Alvand, its owner, is pleasant. 24 hour receptionists monitor the entrance to ensure it is quiet overnight, offer lots of tourist advice, make sure the place is calm and serene! The northern end of la Rambla and south end de passeig, Gracia street, which houses two fashion designers and two gaudi homes, are all within easy walking distance. Additionally, some restaurants offer ten percent discount rates. Every day, they clean the bathroom thoroughly, including putting if there was an issue with this matter so that it would be cleaned right away! Clean rooms and comfortable beds with cosy cotton quilts and electric outlets by the bed. Its nice to sleep with air conditioning. A fully equipped kitchen with free 24hour cookies, variety of teas, or coffee. Really appreciate when you arrive tire and late. Key deposit 20 euros in cash. Size fits one cabin luggage size and little extra space. There is also reserving room for larger and extra luggage under reception supervision. Mixed room 4-6. Like with any other hostel or public places, one must be careful with its belonging because humans are what they are and disrespect

The location is great! Great hostel with great staff. The rooms and bathrooms are very clean. They have a kitchen so you can cook your own meals. I will definitely stay there again.

I had a fantastic stay at alternative creative youth hostel. The location is absolutely perfect, the service of the team is beyond wonderful and very professional, and the room was just as expected. I was blown away by the services of amanda, who made me feel welcome from the moment i walked through the door. She also provided excellent service from victor and alejandro, as well as another female employee whose name ive forgotten (sorry!). After undergoing remorse at st. Christophers inn, he came to acyh, which completely changed my vacation. Thank you, amenda and crew! I will definitely be back.

4.4/58 Nov 2023

I stayed here for 21 days and the owner was very friendly at first but on the last day i was checking out he charged me 20 euros because ill be in bed after 11 pm. Overall the staff is nice but the shower doesnt work poperly and my room door doesn't open from the inside. I will never come back to this place again.

4.4/526 Aug 2023

I have spent 5 nights here. The hostel is in a great location, the rooms are spacious enough, there are separate toilets, and the biggest feature is the large lounge. Although the kitchen is tinier, overall, it is flawless. Ramblas is only ten to fifteen minutes walk from the apollo nightclub, which is located just behind the corner. Would most certainly return here

4.4/510 Jul 2023

I would definitely return and stay here again. This place was fantastic, the staff were amazing, very friendly, and the location felt safe and close to many attractions you must see. Thank you all for the best attention and great service!.

4.4/517 Apr 2023

This place is ideal for meeting people. Its close to the los ramblas. The room was kept in good condition. Staff members are incredibly helpful, polite, and courteous. On our final days of a long journey, the immaculate kitchen was utterly reviving. Clean mattresses and hot showers make this location an ideal spot for socializing. Very handy position. All i can say is that your perceptions determine every aspect you have. Five stars for value and experience.

4.4/523 Mar 2023

The hostel is in a great location, right in the heart of the city and only ten minutes from placa catalunya. The staff is excellent (special thanks to francesca, ruth, and of course, barbara). The rooms are small, which is what i expected, but my biggest complaint is that the rooms lack keys and you cant lock them, so that caused an issue for another customer. One day he started coming and going into the room as if er wanted without knocking or anything, however, thats not occurrence. I recommend the hostel for the fantastic staff.

4.2/55 Mar 2024

The location is good. The staff was fine. But the room smells like azz. Its incredibly expensive. I would have preferred to sleep on the sidewalk if i had gotten armed with utensils.

4.2/526 Nov 2023

The location is perfect for walking around the center of barcelona. There is a thrift shop next door and burger join across the street. The staff are very friendly and upfront. They were helpful with any problems i had inside the hostel and looking for places outside it! Being able to pay $6 to use the hotel as st stop between walks throughout the day after checking out was very helpful and made my short time there much more enjoyable. When ill be back next year, he will stay at this same quality.

4.2/58 Aug 2023

The rooms are a little cold, which is my subjective feeling because the temperature drops in April at night. Then, there is centralized place to charge your devices instead of plugs for charging your phone right next to the bed. After, the room was fine. Subsequently, they always make me smile. Thereafter, Veronica, viktor, and bambino were all really amazing. Hereafter on, this place has 0024 reception. Beside that, bathrooms, kitchen, etc.

4.2/518 Mar 2023

The hostel is close to the placa catalunya, and i spent one night there. The room was clean and had a great atmosphere. All staff are very polite and present 24 hours x 7 days p. M. Thank you for the coffee. I hope to return soon.
