We loved that it was Eco green friendly!! Very clean, extremely basic but it was all we needed for a night to catch a flight early the next day. We got a private room. The shower was amazing, very modern! Would stay here again. They have a cafeteria that was decent to eat at because we arrived late and the restaurants were all closed.

Excellent, new, friendly, modern ensuite hostel
I think it must be brand new because everything was in perfect condition and spotless. We arrived at 3 am owing to much delayed flight with Irish low-cost carrier, but check in was fine with helpful doorman and receptionist. Breakfast was nice and simple and relaxed. We would definitely stay again.

Really cool and massive hostel that's also eco-friendly. The rooms are super spacious and it was a great place to stay overnight! There are lots of amenities like a pool, game rooms, toy room for kids, meeting rooms, etc. I was surprised by how big it was! Nice breakfast too! Staff were super friendly.

Front desk employee very rude, we arrived at 4 AM bc of our flight, the first thing he said check out is at 11:00 AM so go to sleep soon. He smelled to have been drinking alcohol. Breakfast was horrible. Instant coffee margarine and so little alternatives. Room Was missing the bed sheets and towels. No soap shampoo or conditioner. Don’t book run away. Is better to pay a taxi to the city and book a real hotel than this place.

The complex itself was clean and functional, however the rooms were to basic, only a sheet as a blanket, 1 towel per person, tap in bathroom was broken, the floor could have been much cleaner. What was very disappointing was the room had clearly had smokers in it. The room smelled terrible. Dining facilities are limited on site, however there are options a 15 minute walk away. Very frustrating was the fact that the expedia site indicated the airport was close, T1 was not close but closer than the city. Overall doable but not pleasant as there is nothing really out there and extremely basic.

It’s a clean hostel kind of accommodation rather than a hotel. It helps to be able to speak basic Spanish as a lot of the staff do not speak English, but would use it again as a cheaper option of staying in Barcelona

Property was perfect for what we needed-a place for the night near the airport for our flight home the next day. Simple room but extremely clean and quiet with ample plugs and outlets to charge our electronics before our flight the next day. Facility has both a hostel part and a hotel part. We opted for the hotel part with our own bathroom and shower.there is a cafeteria on the facility- we had continental breakfast with coffee- husband had a croissant that he said was delicious. They offer lunch and dinner as well. The property is part of a larger complex that appears to be a foundation of education.
