Hi there, Good: BEST BEACH - Don't even dare compare this beach to the touristy piece of crap that all of the cruises land at and all the tourists go to. This beach has locals, naked and otherwise. Many services: This hostel has all of these little comfort things. Nicely painted room, nice bathroom, nice key card to get into... More

The location may be a little distant from the centre of Barcelona, but it is worth it. There's a metro station 2min walk, the neighborhood is calm and safe. Beach is near and beautifull. The hostel staff is very friendly and always helpfull. Rooms and bathrooms always clean. Kitchen is also good.

The atmosphere, staff and rooms here are exactly what you want when you travel. The breakfast was mediocre but as the location is Spain you can go to any cafe and top up on coffee and pastries for less than €3 so that's not the end of the world. The location was good - yes, it's not in central Barcelona... More

Be Dream is by far one of the nicest hostels I have been to. Modern, clean, and nice atmosphere. The TV room has just about any film you can imagine, a take something leave something in the lobby for umbrellas and games for the beach and there is a paella night once a week. The beach is several metres away,... More

We didn't have a shared bathroom but the atmosphere in the place was pretty cool, breakfast was average and they offer help for the tourist attractions of Barcelona. The Metro station is 100 meters away and Sagrada Familia is about 20 minutes on metro. Can't complain. Great value.

first you have to consider that this hostel is really far from the ramblas, approx 20-25mins by metro/underground. it's good if you already have been in BCN and you decide to exit from common places made just for tourits. the place is good, close to the metro station and close to a supermarket and a pharmacy (we needed both). friendly...

I've stayed in be dream hostel and enjoyed every bit of it. Firstly, it's not far away from Barcelona city center, but people think so. That makes Be Dream very quiet and boutique for some reason. You can enjoy your quiet minutes in patio or jump into to sea from Badalona beach which is minutes away w/ walking. This was... More

This hostel instead of a "be-dream" was just a nightmare. it was so far from the center of Barcelona. maybe twenty subway station from the center of town. it takes at least 40 minutes to reach any place that worths a visit . On Internet they promote the place saying it is close to the beach. but in fact it... More

We booked the hostel knowing that it was not in the center of Barcelona and were fine with that. However, the metro stops running at midnight and while there is a night bus (we didnt use this) if we had known that the metro stops that early we probably would have stayed closer in, we were coming from Madrid where...
