The location is okay, but the look of the property and the staff are quite unprofessional, although they are respectful.

Ok stay
The location was excellent!! It was nice having our own bathroom. The other people at the hostel were so loud even up to 1 am. I wish they had quiet hours. The beds weren’t very comfortable. The WiFi was really good.

A decent hostel with a very good location. The room is home style and looked a bit old, but clean and pleasant enough for the stay. The building entrance is slightly less noticeable.

The place was ok to good. The area was not fantastic. It was like the international quarter. But not unsafe.

It is within walking distance of the train station, the Prada and other touristy areas. It’s not your 5-star hotel, but for a “hostel” I had my own room and bathroom. No complaints.

Good budget hotel in a great location
Great location however if you are arriving by train the the walk is all uphill. The hostal is above a cannabis shop. I would suggest you take the metro from the station to Anton Martin rather than carry your luggage up hill. There were plenty of supermarkets, shops and cafes/restaurants in the area. They offered us early check in and stored our luggage upon check out. The room was clean and there was a hairdryer but no kettle in the room. The room was cleaned one morning however they did not clean it the second morning. The walls are thin and you can hear your neighbours. I tried to contact the hostel owner about the noise however the door was locked overnight and I could not find a phone number for the property.

Limpio y muy viejo
La entrada del hostal de la calle, da un poco de miedo, está sucia y oscura.
Todo el hostal muy viejo, no han recomendado nada en 30 años.
El que aire acondicionado viejo viejo, hace mucho ruido, y postre dormir, MAL.
Pero está limpio, y da lo que esperas.

Local para passar uma noite apenas. Antigo, muitas chaves para várias portas, elevador é um 'cúbiculo', apertado, duas pessoas com malas vão espremidas. Além disso, o check-in demasiado lento. Para quem chega cansado de viagem é muito desconfortável.
