Hostal Central Barcelona

Hostel

Cozy place, clean rooms, good air conditioning, great location to get to know the city, very nice staff.

We were in February while the apartment across the street was under construction, the hallways very dirty. The room was very clean and comfortable. It's economical.

GROSS — DO NOT BOOK HERE
My boyfriend and I stayed here for 3 nights and will not go back. The room is very small, you cannot leave the suitcase open or you can't move around. Towels were not bleached which means there where full of nasty brown/black spots. Most important of all, when taking a shower, the water was not going down the pipe but staying all in the shower and going all over the the floor of the TINY BATHROOM and part of the room as well. We've asked to change room but the hotel was full. We've then asked to receive a partial refund as we were paying 100€ per night but the receptionist which would not let us speak with the owner Monica (she apparently never is at the hotel) has refer us that Monica would not refund us anything. Monica said that it was our fault that THEIR PIPES WERE NOT FUNCTIONING. This situation was ridiculous and gross (see photo) and the customer service deriving from it just not acceptable. Will not be staying here ever again.

The location is very good cleaning polite reception and not too spacious but not overly small rooms.

Very nice and clean rooms but we missed the daylight in our room.

Very poor reception and you hear a lot of noise not resting well.

This is a building on Diputació Street which is a real treasure! An old and central façade with details of the last century. But inside, refurbished rooms that delight customers for just two months!
Comfortable and firm mattresses, flat TV with retractable arm, bathroom with modern ceramic and wood washbasin and a cascading shower.
The reception has been welcoming and friendly. We were informed of the possibilities that Barcelona has and offer a simple breakfast of pastries and coffee or tea, for free.
If you are going to Barcelona and want comfort and closeness to everything, this accommodation is perfect.

We stayed for 2 days and we liked it very much, the receptionist was very nice and he helped us with all the information we needed, he even gave us his number and was available all the time. 10+

Very friendly A fairy tale!

Very good location to visit Sagrada Familia, and is very well connected by public transport. Very clean, I got a better room than I hired, all punctual and with very good attention.

The room is clean and very central, the staff is very nice and helpful. BUT, the bathroom is basically in the room, with no doors neither in front of the toilette nor shower. I felt really uncomfortable about that. And the bed wasn’t king sized, it was two single beds together that kept drifting apart. The room is very minimalist, not well equipped. No bathroom toiletries or mini fridge or anything you can think of. I wouldn’t come back.

Very nice! Great location.

A very inexpensive good room great service will use again.

Small room, smelly bathroom.

Good location, but pricey considering the room sizes and condition.

Not nice. Outdated, many rules.

Great reception, fabulous staff and friendliest, clean rooms and plenty of breakfast.

There is 1 bathroom for all the hotel, the rooms are not air conditioned, the owner is very unpleasant, "like almost all Catalans". They left us the key in a cantina in front of us and they never warned. I don't recommend it.

It was very helpful and clean. We were given the keys to the room earlier than expected, we could leave our suitcases until 10pm. 00.
