Located in a beautiful, quiet, safe neighborhood 10 mins away from Park Guell and in the lovely neighborhood of Gracia. Friendly, helpful staff and a functional kitchen that was kept clean. Lots of common space to hang out in, including outdoor terraces. Laundry service that was very affordable (3€) where you drop off w reception and get it back clean and dry later that day. Beds came with privacy curtains and an outlet and 2 USB-A slots. Our booking came with free breakfast which included a hot drink, a small yogurt, orange juice, and a food item of our choice (slice of cake, croissant sandwich, bagel sandwich, etc). Other hostel visitors were generally very respectful, quiet, and friendly, though obviously that changes depending on who is there.
The cleaners were very diligent, but also used prolific amounts of room freshening spray. It made some rooms unbearable to be for an hour after cleaning, and the artificial smell was present in many spaces throughout the property. The property is uphill, on a very steep street at the top of a neighborhood on a hill, so there is a steady uphill walk from the metro every time you come home. We didn’t mind it, but something that’s good to know if you have limited mobility. The neighborhood is definitely busy with tourists during the day but is generally quiet at night. Many common spaces play music at all hours, except for the outdoor terraces and open chillout gaming space.

El desayuno y personal
El baño estaba inundado siempre, había pelos largos en las sábanas y me cambiaron de cama a una pequeña que no tenía ni donde guardar la ropa, la verdad por precio encuentras mejor lugares en Barcelona

Quiet area, clean, and did laundry for 3 euros per load.
Washroom, shower, and hallways was humid and only one shared between two rooms which contained 6 people each room.

El personal muy amable y atentos. Hay detalles para con los huéspedes que me han sorprendido.
La ubicación es un poco alejada, pero acorde al precio pagado.

Literalmente esta a unas cuadras del parque Güel, la mayoría de videos te recomienda que comiences por allí por lo que te ahorras mucho tiempo al estar cerca y puedes descansar un poco más antes de empezar tu tour por Barcelona.
La dos estaciones más cercanas están a 1 kilómetros, cuando vas sin maletas paseando es fácil llegar a ellas pero en nuestro casa con el equipaje, cansados del vuelo anterior y del día de turismo nos fue muy difícil y cansado, recomendamos que llegues con poco equipaje y dispuesto a caminar o que tomes taxi aunque será caro al rededor de €40 o €50.

Nice, quiet hostel away from the hustle and bustle. This also means the hostel is far from everything, and you need to cross a small mountain to use the metro. But they have buses on the hostel side of the mountain that run pretty reliably. This also means I would recommend buying with breakfast included. I loved their inner courtyard with the hammocks in the evening when temperatures were lower. Air conditioning in the room was good, but not quite strong enough to keep temperatures low near the ceiling in the upper bunk beds.
Shower and toilet facilities need some work. There was a single shower for multiple floors of rooms. The lights turned off after 30 seconds of using the bathroom (sensor light only).

Fantastic hosts, amazing facility. Very cooperative team and the location is close to the city centre.
My only problem was about the bed sheets, I am allergic to bed bugs and I had a little rash the next morning. I definitely recommend bringing your own sheets.

The building is split over several floors, with a spare loo by reception, then one bathroom for the 6 person mixed dorm we were in which managed well for us all.
The blinds work really nicely on the beds and provide privacy. The reception let me use one of their padlocks for the under bed locker because mine didn't fit. The peach ice tea on arrival was an excellent touch after the hill. The breakfast was cheap and cheerful, I'm partial to set yoghurt and the coffee is good.
The kitchen is more a kitchenette but does well. I appreciate the sign telling people not to cook fish (although someone ignored that and then loudly slurped their dinner and sucked on prawns and made everywhere smell bad but that's not the hostels fault at all.) Bathrooms clean and well equipped with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash as well as a hairdryer. Music in common areas is excellent. The patio is lovely and the hammocks were nice to chill in. Wear bug spray.
Laundry cheap and includes a wash and dry for €3 at time of writing. Reception staff happy to lend a hand ordering taxis. Well located near park guell, walk a few streets over to take the escalator up the hill.
All in all the best hostel I've ever stayed in.
It's a hostel, people gonna stagger in at 3am, someone's going to try and dry their hair with a hairdryer at midnight, it happens, not the hostels fault.

The staff was very friendly and all the facilities very clean. Location was good, just a short walk to the top of the hill as well as to the Lesseps L3 subway station, to go to downtown Barcelona. Got all of my laundry washed and dried just for 3€, great service.
6.0
Okay overall, no more, no less.
Staff is very friendly and helpful.
Hang out areas are nice.
Curtains on all beds, which is great.
Lockers are quite roomy.
Kitchen is not equiped enough if you plan on really cooking during your stay + suprisingly small fridge for a hostel
Overall clean, except for the bathroom (especially the shower). Ex.: a dirty mop bucket was left in the (small) bathroom during our whole stay.
Close to the Park Guell, which is nice, but a bit far from the center (beach, quartier gothique, etc.)
8.0
Nice beds with courtains, lockers below the bed in drawers. Staff was quite lovely.
Not a really social hostel, social areas are in the basement.
AC was crazy everywhere, dorm ac was set to like 15 deg. Pretty expensive for what you get. Breakfast is not worth the money in my opinion

Every bed has a curtain, and the room was very quiet (because the room was very narrow, not much space to be sociable )
The staff are so nice:))))))
the cleaning of the bathroom was not ok, the rug on the floor was soaking wet everyday, and the mop and the bucket with dirty water was there everyday.
as other ppl mentioned, the height of bunk beds was too short, you can’t sit on the beds

The location is nice enough and the environment in public space is clean.
The bed is dirty especially the gap between the bed and the wall.

Very beautiful modern hostel with a yummy breakfast. Close to the Guell park and other sights in the Gracia area. Very comfy beds and good wifi!
I didn't like that you have to pay 3 euros for linens, that should be a standard service!

Very good value.

The room was awesome: spacious, huge locker below the bed, comfortable mattrass and pillow, thick curtains and good heating. Kudos for giving a bracelet to open the doors without the inconvenience of cards/keys/codes.
The location is not very central and a long up/downhill walk away from the nearest metro stations. The only (for 12 people!!!) toilet was cold, cramped and the shower just a drizzle.
