    The hostel is pretty and comfortable. The staff was very nice to us. I was working during weekdays and the space they have for people to work is great! Internet was great too. To me what made all the difference to make the experience of sharing a bedroom with 9 other people was the bed's curtains. Thanks, Soul Backpackers!

    Two women were very noisy even after 0am. But nothing has been done, and I couldn’t fall asleep. This is very important for a hostel to manage guests.

    Clean. Good location. Friendly staff. Good terrace. But there is a reason I rated 7, which is more important than anything else.

    As far as I could see, there are only 3 showers and 2 toilets for the entire hostel. It can get busy sometimes.

    Very good location. Staff was really helpful and the beds are very good, with lockers, individual light and curtains. It’s a really nice hostel.

    The lockers are provided, but you need to bring your own lock. However, you need the medium size lock to be able to close it, since the small/thin lock is not big enough to close, so anyone can open the locker. I bought new locker for 2eur in a corner shop, so it was not a big problem, but keep this in mind.

    It looks like on the picture, the bed has curtain for privacy and electric socket and lamp with adjustable light strenght. There is a kitchen and big lounge area and also big terase that is open until 23:00. The location is amazing.

    - First when I came there was a smell in my room because the window is not directly inside it (weird description I know) but got fixed. - At nights it could be quite cold.

    - The hostel is very cozy, it feels like home inside. - The staff are amazing, very friendly and always open to help. - There are two toilets, which I thought wouldn't be enough but they were, and the toilets were always clean. - The location is nice, very central but not too close to overcrowded places. Supermarkets nearby. - I was traveling solo as a woman and it was good to see so many other women in the hostel.

    The location is in the center. You can walk to Sagrada Família and Catalonia square area. It’s easy to take bus to airport no matter when you flight is. Although it’s an old building, they keep it clean and cozy. Always there is a staff at the front desk to answer the intercom. No worry about the security. It has curtain for dormitory. You can have privacy when you are in the room.

    The facility is too old, and I paid about 8 euro tax for 2 night when I checked in, making the total price relative high when consider the old facilities and small toilet and bathroom

    The location of this hostel is very good, close to the metro station, and every bed has curtain, which is good for privacy.

    The place really needs a global renovation Locks on lockers should be available on site, I would have expected a towel and some shared shampoo or soad in th eshowers.

    Location is very convenient, reception open 24hrs. Beds in dorms were confortable. Price was attractive.
