Having booked a night at this hostal, I was a rather dismayed to read the reviews on this site. However, we found that the hostal was fine, if a little basic, and well-located for our purposes. The man on reception when we arrived was extremely helpful and friendly - and the man on the following morning was also perfectly reasonable.... more

We stayed at this Hostal in late March with 25 school pupils. The rooms were very clean, but very basic. Don't expect any frills - there arent any. The hostal is around 20 mins from La Rambla in a very direct route. Facilities are extremely limited and on talking to the owners they made it very clear that there focus... more

The pictures on the official website are very misleading. The room I stayed in had no windows facing the outside, the floor comprised of stone and cracked tiles, the bathroom was minimal: a very basic shower, dirty sink. The place wasn't exactly clean. The staff were friendly enough, and this would be ok for a single traveller, but if you... more

Dear costumer, I'm afraid you didn't get one of our new renovated rooms, that are post on the website, also you sould know that is imposible that all rooms face the street. I'm pretty sure that if you did asked us to get you a room facing the street we would did or best to give you one. What i...

Really ugly room. Very old. Probably has not been refurbished since the Civil War. Has absolutely nothing in common with the photos of the nice room published on the web. Very ugly indeed. Many broken floor tiles. No nightstands next to the bed at all. One chair was only furniuture in the room. Bathroom was ugly and uncomfortable, too. Difficult... more

NB See video of our room, 'Hostal of Horrors', on this site. Dirty, old, tatty. Cracked tiles on floor. The kind of place where you wouldn't be to suprised to meet a rat or two. If it was not for having our five year old daughter in tow, would have gone elsewhere. Final straw was when, on check out, the... more

This two star hostel did not have the room we reserved. What we got looked very different from the pictures on the internet. We reserved a two room suite with kitchen, granite countertops, etc. but when the four of us arrived, they said that suite was only avail. for a stay of 3+ days, and we were only staying one... more

The hostal is very close to the underground. The building is very old and room we had was very small and not so comfortable, there was neither a table, nor nightstands nor a closet! It was even quite cold. You can have double beds. more

The only 2 positive things I can say about this hotel are it is quiet and there was air conditioning (although it only went on after 8:30pm and shut off sometime during the night.). It is a monastic room, at best, with a camp-like bed. The shower leaked so badly, we had to toss our towels on the bathroom floor... more

Man on desk was not helpful, was full of himself and he felt it necessary tell us we where ignorant english people because we couldn't speak good spanish, and that he could speak five languages. We tried our best speak their language but after that point we just didn't communicate. Yes and we are scottish, know who is ignorant. more
