i had a pleasant stay at the hostalin during my visit for the christmas party. the large double room was comfortable and met all my expectations for a festive getaway in barcelona. loved the cozy atmosphere that made it feel like home!

the air conditioning was quite noisy.

The location sits near Parc de la Ciutadella, about a 15-minute walk to the city center. The room felt cozy, clean, and surprisingly comfortable for the price point. I appreciated the large double room layout, including a smart TV. Daily cleaning kept everything tidy. the check-in process was frustrating and took longer than expected, checking into my room. The shower, while functional, had issues with water drainage. it got clogged easily, leading to standing water. The air conditioning unit was a bit noisy too.

I really don't understand why this location has bad reviews! It's close to everything, we walked to all the hot spots. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfy, and we will definitely come back!

The room was clean, but the check-in took forever.

Upon arrival, I faced an unexpected wait for assistance, yet I appreciated the staff's later kindness and water offer. The cozy, clean room was topped with a modern bathroom.

Exceptional Stay with Clean Rooms and Great Location!

I loved the cleanliness and tidiness of our Budget Double Room without Window. The central location made exploring Barcelona a breeze, and we enjoyed dropping off our luggage before check-in. A tip , knowing a bit of Spanish can enhance interactions with the staff.

we had a great time at hostalin! the location was perfect, just a 10-minute walk to la sagrada familia. our double room with terrace was fantastic, featuring a smart tv and a fridge. we loved that our room was cleaned daily and had air conditioning, making our stay comfortable. plus, the staff was welcoming, enhancing our visit.

would recommend

The location proved to be a real asset, tucked near charming restaurants and shops, making outings convenient. the check-in experience was frustrating, as an unexpected wait for assistance left a sour first impression. While the room was clean and featured a cozy bed, the outdated fixtures— especially the precarious hairdryer socket—raised concerns. The cold meat offered at breakfast was a pleasant surprise, showcasing some thought in food selection.

Recommend it for budget-friendly travelers

The reception staff was very welcoming, giving us 2 bottles of water upon arrival which was a nice touch after the hot walk to the hostel. the room was super quiet, no noise from outside, perfect for recuperating after walking around all day.

It wasn’t exactly inexpensive, but more or less acceptable for what you get.

good location but poor service

The room's cleanliness exceeded my expectations, making it a refreshing place to unwind. I appreciated the daily room tidiness, which was commendable for comfort. The city view from the nearby location was a delightful bonus. I found the stay promising in terms of environment.

The check-in process was frustrating, impacting my first impression of the service.

The staff was genuinely welcoming, which made our family feel at home. We enjoyed exploring the nearby attractions, and our stay was enhanced by the room’s cleanliness and tidiness, exceeding our expectations. Plus, the kids had a blast visiting the local parks.

My kids wished there were more family-friendly dining options nearby.

Absolutely adored the location! ! So vibrant and lively, such a delightful culinary adventure.
