Reviews for Gothic Point Hostel, Barcelona, Spain |
|
|
Address: C/ Vigatans, 5 |
Problably one of the coolest hostels in Europe. Ideally located, near of everything. There's allways something going on: concerts, parties, djs sessions, tours, activities, etc. Totally focused on the international traveller. more info »

| Comments: My idea of "linen included" usually covers some kind of blanket/doona, not just a pillow case & base sheet (that doesn't fit the mattress). I would rather forsake 20 free minutes on the internet for a doona. |

| Comments: Services were low. There were no blankets. I've never stayed in a hostel where a blanket wasn't included in the cost. Having to rent a blanket defeated the purpose of staying in the lower cost hostel. Additionally, though they knew we'd been in the same hostel the night before, and even though we had a reservation, we had to wait about an hour to check in on Friday. It was ridiculous. Breakfast was good. |

| Comments: Check out is at 10 am. They came in our room at 10 am to wake us up and turn the lights on after we had been out till 6 the night before. Other than that there's really no complaints. Staff was pretty helpful, great location, a little hard to find so its worth taking a cab there at first. Bring a lock as lockers are provided in the room. |

| Comments: Staff was not tremendously friendly or helpful. You can get a blanket and towel...if you rent them for several Euro more. Beds each have a curtain around them, so you are offered a little privacy if you would like. If you are looking for a decently clean place close to Las Ramblas and the city center, and you don't mind unhelpful staff and renting blankets/towels, then this will suffice. I would personally look for another one, though. Hope this helps. |

| Comments: Great Hostel. Excellent vibe, and good location to the Metro, local city park, and Picasso Museum. I would stay here again. Staff was a little clueless at times and gave me the wrong time for a tour, but they refunded my money promptly. |

| Comments: I think that this hostel is okay, except the bathroom. The staffs are really nice, breakfast is nice, the room is ok and the location is perfect.
But I really couldn\'t stand the bathroom. Whenever I went to take shower, I had to stand smell. And the shower booth wasn\'t very convenient.
But It\'s okay if you stay here for just 1 or 2 days... |

| Comments: The rooms were a very bizarre layout with cabin style beds with very high ladders and curtains. The rooms were therefore not very social and did not facilitate meeting people. |

| Comments: The hostel is pretty good actually. The room`s are very spacious and you have like your won reserved bed which I thought was perfect. The only thing there they should pay more attention is to the shower area. It`s a little bit unconfortable and it was always wet. In the rooms you have 2 toilets (girls/boys). Perfect. |
