Located in front of the most popular beach in Barcelona and only 10 minutes walking to the city center, you'll never forget the view of the sunrise from the terrace of our bar. Lots of things to do. Experience Barcelona while you're on the beac more info »

Comments: Excellemt Location right at the beach - bit of a walk to head into centre, but still managable, walls between dorms not thick and not full height so noise bound to travel, but its a hostel after all - bring your ear plugs! - lockers provided in the dorm but bring your own padlock or buy from reception - looking at going back in the summer :)

Comments: Great location literally on the beach.. no lie there. The staff was very helpful. Walking distance to the main nightlife in the city. Rooms were cleaned each day including the bathrooms which was a pleasant surprise. Near the bus stops for the tourist buses. The only downside would be what everyone else has said in their reviews; the ceilings don\'t go all the way up so sound travels very easily. Great place to stay though and I\'m sure even better in the summertime when it\'s warm and you can actually get in the water.

Comments: Great location on the seaside. A bit noisy though, so not the best choice if you want to sleep at night. The staff was only reluctantly helpful. Nice breakfast.

Comments: Fabulous location if you want to go to the beach. Not much going on around the area apart from the beach, but only about a 10 minute walk to the metro station. The sites and Las Ramblas and clubs are all accessible on the metro. The staff was very friendly. Never really made it to breakfast. Ensuite bathrooms. Very large lockers to store your stuff, which was great; you need your own lock of course (they sell them at the reception if you need).

Comments: The hostel itself is a bit of a walk from the action of the town, but it is located on a beautiful beach. If you don\'t mind a 10 minute walk or so, it\'s great. Plus being on the beach is a definite perk!

Comments: Totally "dijoncté" !!! Drunk boy in the bathroom bared bottom and sick... People coming in at dawn (!) Prostitute making her business in one of our friend's room... Very noisy place. Very expensive for the offered service. No window in the room : looked like a jail ! Thanks for the experience : I NEVER had such !!!

Comments: This place is literally ON the beach, great location. The beds have no covers of any sort, so it's easy to get cold at night. Not bad, not great.

Comments: So close to the beach! Slightly hard to find by the directions they gave, and pretty far from the closest Metro stop. Close to good restaurants, though.

Comments: Everything was awesome for the most part. They were having some technical issues which slowed things down a bit. The only real "complaint" I have would be the lack of spare keys for ppl to enter the rooms. We had to share with some others. But I'd def. stay here again!

Comments: we have been chocked by the fact that it was not possible to pay by credit card without paying 1€/day/person wich is for six people and 3 days 18€ ! It is a rapt. It is not a romm for seven people but a big dormitory wich is very very noisy, light all the night...

Comments: Great hostel. Perfect location for us by the beach. Majority of staff were good - only some not so willing to help. We didn't use the cooking facilities as there are great restaurants right on the doorstep. One thing we noticed was it was really hot in the room. Ours didn't have any windows but linked at the top of the walls to another room so can imagine in the height of summer it could get pretty roasting if there isn't any cooling method! Would definately stay here again!

Comments: bit of a mission from the train and bus station. Nice because its on the beach and only a 15 min walk into town but its very loud! there are like metre gaps between the walls and the roof so they are really all connected which is weird and sometimes they are way to strict on being quiet but othernights people are still yelling and running around at 5am.

Comments: I really appreciated the lockers in the rooms and the cleanliness of the restrooms. I also felt everyone in the hostel was respectful and relatively quiet during the night. My friend and I were bummed to miss the free breakfast because it ended a little early, but otherwise, we had a great stay and I would recommend this hostel to my friends!
