Have stayed here many times over the past years and have to say the service has not always been exemplory mainly due to the language barrier. However its reliable, cheap and in a good position.

Great location (opposite Estació de França Station), nice staff and free, fast WiFi connection. Our room was facing the street and we were a bit afraid of the noise but in fact the third floor and new windows were enough to keep the room quiet. Also, the room itself was big and comfortable (we had a double with bathroom), the...

Hostel is perfectly situated. Easy access to all attractions. Great value for money. We had a shared bathroom but clean and fine, no complaints! Room was at the back, with no view but desired silence after day long visiting. Great for a short stay and as Barcelona is an expensive city, good rate for accommodation is an important matter!
Directly opposite the Franca railway station on on the edge of the Born district, this hostal is easy to get to and perfectly located for exploring. Although quite small, the room seemed to have been recently refurbished to a high standard and was very clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. A great budget place to stay. A small point...

After looking for a hostel for hours, my friend and I finally came across "Hostal Nuevo Colon" in the district of Born. There is a train station(Estación de França) across the street and a metro station just a couple of blocks away! Its location is great, its clean, and the staff was very friendly. The rooms are simple, this is...

For £45 a night I was very disappointed. I was aware it was an hostel and so shared bathroom. But decor and furniture very low standard, no safe in the room. Security into the building was quite good, buzzer entry system (not that you were asked who you were), separate keys for room and entry to our floor and cctv....

The hostel is located in the historical city center, near the railway station and one of the most interesting city parks, but some distance away from the Rambla and the hustle and bustle of nightlife. Hostel is located only on the upper floors of the building, so you can sleep there much better than in hostels located upper the loud...

Stayed for one night at the cheapest doubleroom with basin (room # 302). The room is situated right next to the entrance and reception, hence noises from the corridor do carry through to the room most of the day/night. Reception staff was friendly and especially one gentleman spoke fluent english and was very helpful. The room is simple with two...

I booked that hostel just becouse I had only 1,5 day for barcelona and I didn't want to waste my time on airport transfer. Hostel offers you very simple small rooms, but price is reasonable. Take it only if you want to spend all the tima on city streets and return to hostel room only to sleep. We had a...

This hotel is very well located, only few minutes walking from the main monuments and parts of the city. Great advantage is also train station opposite the hotel (one can travel directly from/to the airport). The rooms are very simple BUT clean. The street outside the hotel is very noisy at night, but this wasn't big problem as our room...
