Barcelona Pere Tarrés Youth Hostel

i liked that the room had its own shower and toilet, rather than shared with the whole corridor. i was also able to do a late check in after 11Pm, its value for money in terms of what you get. breakfast had a nice spread considering its a hostel. the locker for each bed is quite spacious! Luggage room also available. for a overnight stay it was a great cheap option for a bed, shower and breafkast before continuing travels.

It was my first time solo travelling and my first time staying in a hostel. I can confidently say this was the best hostel I could choose for my first experience. Everything was super organised, and the accommodations were very clean and tidy. I felt safe in the premises and common rooms of the hostel throughout my stay. I stayed there for 6 nights, and I enjoyed talking to the newcomers of the room every day, even though that was something i was feeling anxious about before. I was so happy I got to talk to so many people and hear about their experiences in the city and their aspirations in life. The mattresses were super comfortable, and the lockers were spacious and easy to use. The staff was super friendly and ready to help with anything you might need. The breakfast was very sufficient with different options to choose from. The common toilet on the main floor was always clean, with paper rolls on the side. There was also a luggage room where on the last day of my stay I could leave it there to pick it up later, which was super helpful since the hostel was close to the metro that goes to the airport. Overall, I had the best time, and I will definitely remember the memories I made in this hostel forever.

The location is not far from barcelona sants, the room had included facilities, which may be good or bad depending on the number of people in the room as always they don't have a place to arrange your clothes so in the wet season you will have trouble drying it, dunno how about hot sesson but they have AC, your bed comes with power plug, usb socket and light the bathroom was big but the shower had extremely awkward tape you had to constantly push for more water and it was fixed on the wall very inconveniently so you have to dance around it to spray with water your entire body, there was liquid soap, towels are not included what i appreciated was the big lockers (two big backpacks fitted well) with a magnetic tablet-like key that also worked for a door) I bought breakfast included and recommend doing it for everybody), they sent a nice message on the day i was leaving, so that if i don't have the time to eat (kitchen opens st 7-30), the may give me takeaway Also they have a kitchen where you can cook for yourself, it has two stoves, two microwave ovens and two fridges, plus plenty of room and works till 23-00, its a bit lacking on pans, but because very few people use it, its fine

There is a large lockable draw under the beds which was great for luggage. Shower was good if a little annoying, it has a push button so you have to push it in every minute or the water turns off. Included breakfast of cereal, fruit, bread and sliced meats was decent.

By mistake I just made a reservation for one night, when I arrived the guy at the reception helped me to check in at 1am!! It was too late but since that moment the staff was really helpful and kind. The following days, they gave me advices to make my time valuable and tourist Barcelona as I should. They breakfast was pretty good: bread, croissant, ham, coffee, juice, yogurt... I just missed the eggs lol Certainly I recommend this place to stay in Barcelona.
