Overpriced at 120 euros per night for what you get. There were only 2 of us for 2 days and 3 of us for 5 days but we had to pay for 4 people for the entire time. The sofa bed was actually broken for half that time so 4 people could not have slept there anyway but that did... more

I've stared in itaca hostel three times and always found it a small friendly hostel in the centre but this time i came to barcelona with the family so we stayed in the apartment itaca have. on the whole we found it a great place to stay, it's a fully equipped modern flat so it was great to be able... more

We were a group of 5 and used the Itaca's apartment. It was perfect for our needs, especially being able to cook. The kitchen is equipped enough and the apartment was clean and pretty quiet. The location is terrific, just around the corner from the big market. The apartment isn't for everyone, though: it's a long climb (no lift) to... more

We found this to be a very clean, pleasant and central hostel. I would recommend this to any budget traveller. more

Stayed here in 2004 when Celtic played Barca. Hostel was exremely clean, excellent value for money and safe. In a good area, lots and bars and restaurants and within walking distance to the main hub.Only thing was that you get chucked out in the afternoon (for them to clean) which is not good if you are trying to catch up... more
