I rented a Superior Single room for one night. Walked from Parc Nou station, easy to find. The property has the feel of a university dorm. Clean, safe, dinner and breakfast options were simple, affordable and tasty. I would stay here again.

Great friendly check in. Closest metro was Parc Nou plus 10 min walk. I wouldnt like to walk it in the dark but was ok in daylight. Economic option for 10 minute cab ride to T1 airrport but still costs 30 Euros. Were some noisy neighbours but was fine for a place to sleep for one night for early flight out the next day.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I got a single room at this hostel. It was large, the bathroom was clean, and the bed was comfortable. Breakfast was good, including croissants, sandwich meat, fruit, yogurt, and coffee. It is about a 10 minute walk from the Metro, but it is really hard to push a wheeled suitcase, as the sidewalks have small square patterns embedded in them. This is a problem in many Barcelona neighbourhoods, and is not a reflection of the hostel (just a warning about the walk there). The hostel uses recycled water in the toilets and showers, but the tap water is potable.
