Para quedarse una noche, o para un momento de apuro, está bastante bien. La ubicación es buena, pero nada del otro mundo. Muy básico, pero para dormir y poco más, perfecto.

Ettől rosszabb szállás foglalásom még nem volt.

Szégyen, hogy egy ilyen szállást hirdetnek. Penészes fürdőszoba, mocskos, repedezett falak, az ajtó alja berúgva, az ablak egy töelékes poros zárt részre volt nyitható. Magas belterű szoba a fűtést egy hősugárzó szolgálta volna de képtelenség vele befűteni vele a szobát. Leülésnél az ágyból kiugrott a rúgó. A Hotels.com oldalán feltett képek nem fedik a valóságot. 1 órát voltunk ott míg intézkedtünk és másik szállást kerestünk. A Hotels.comtol a mai napig nem kaptunk választ a panaszunkra. Remélem visszatéritik a kifizett szallasdijat mivel ez egy minosithetetlen hely. Senkinek nem ajanlom meg alvasra sem.

Me gustó la atención de uno de los chicos del hostal el que me recibió fue muy amable. En la mañana siguiente había una chica en la recepción que fue super grosera y en definitiva no tenía ganas de atender mis dudas. No volvería a ese lugar nunca más, todo está muy viejo el baño está super pequeño la calefacción no servía y en sí no creo q debería de tener esos precios muy malas instalaciones.

Pay 10 euros more, stay somewhere else.

I had to book this hostel last minute, the pictures seemed alright but the actual room conditions were horrible. Not one sink on the whole floor, not in the room or in the toilet. There is only one sink downstairs for two floors combined. No toilet paper in the toilets. I stayed in a single room, although it's January there is no blanket or quilt provided except the thin duvet with no sheets. There is only a small electric heating fan in the room. The only good part was the sheets and the towels seemed clean and staff were helpful although they only spoke Spanish.

Hôtel bien placé géographiquement près des ramblas. Par contre chambre sordide . fil électrique apparent. bestioles remontant de la tyauterie du lavabo. lavabo d un autre age . murs jaunatres non repeint depuis longtemps portant traces de pieds et autre contre le mur . un neon comme éclairage. une demi fenêtre à un battant. je n ai jamais dormi dans un tel endroit. seul le verrou de la porte était neuf. Comment Hôtels.com peut il proposer ce genre d auberge ?...on a payer 55 € la nuit !!! C était la chambre 217.

Nagyon igénytelen szállás

A recepciós hölgy nagyon kedves,és segítőkész volt,de a férfi váltótársa kiábrándító,modortalan,figyelmetlen volt.kérésre nem segített a repülőjegy nyomtatásban,egyszerüen elfordult tőlünk. A szoba rideg,egy ruhafogas ,.törülköző tartó sem volt,4 személy részére 2 szék volt csupán.Egyetlen előnye a központi elhelyezkedés,.közel a buszmegállóhoz.
