Met expectations of a hostel. Bathroom had a bad smell if the door was left closed and refrigerator was on a switch which their outlet kept turning off so it wasn’t reliable. Otherwise it was clean and quiet

Great value in a lovely part of Barcelona
Very enjoyable stay in Barcelona. The entire staff were friendly and helpful. The location is perfect, walking distance to the beach and brilliant eateries very close by. The restaurant across the street at Estacio de França was extremely good value. 15€ for 3 courses with choices plus wine, beer or soft drink included. Honest Greens around the corner is excellent. Paradiso is next door, very handy when asking for directions, everyone knows where that is. Room was a good size for 3, 1 double and 1 single bed. Air con worked well and the balcony with 2 chairs was a bonus. There's no lift but we're in our 70's and we coped ok. The reception is on the 3rd floor. Access via the intercom. Walkable from the bus station or catch a bus from Arc de Triomf. Barceloneta is the closest metro or Jaume.

The place wast fast to find. The area around is the best we found a beautiful church and great shopping and restaurants. The staff were friendly and very helpful with any questions. The only complaint is the stairs. The main office is in the 3 floor and if you’re lucky your room will be in that floor. If not your room is in the fifth floor. It is a lot of stairs every time we had to go out.

It was perfect for what we wanted. Central so a lot of what we wanted to see was walking distance. We had a late check in and this was organised perfectly. Front desk couldn’t have been more helpful, would definitely stay again.

Friendly and helpful staff. The location is nice. We were pleasantly surprised that this place was literally next door to the Paradiso. Look it up. It is rated one of the best cocktail bars in the world. Other than the stairs, we really enjoyed ourselves.

Short stop in Barcelona
Location is great however with that comes noise till 3-4am. There are about 7 flights of stairs to the unit we were in so that's something to consider when hauling a lot of luggage. The unit was spacious enough with a small kitchenette which was nice. The biggest problem was no hot water, we asked about it and they said there was but no matter how long the water was on it was cool so showers weren't great. Overall it's a nice unit and a fantastic location with a few issues. We would stay again.

Amazing location!
The rooms are basic but clean and housekeeping came every day! The staff on the front desk are at your disposal 24/7 and were very friendly, we were able to leave our bags there after checking out as our flight was later in the day. The location is ideal for exploring Barcelona and is close to the train station!

The hotel is in a great location for food options, proximity to transport and local sightseeing! It is a walk up, and it was a little awkward to get into at first but the staff is amazing and very helpful! The only things to note; it’s a great area for nightlife and bars but this also means you have the noise to go along. The beds were also too hard for my liking. Otherwise, would book again!

This was a "no-frills" room. Which was EXACTLY what my 3 adult children and I were looking for! It was absolutely PERFECT for our needs! A room with 3 beds (a double and 2 singles), free wi-fi, and a private bath and shower. When we arrived, we walked up the stairs to the 4th floor (no elevator, it's a historic building) and we were warmly greeted. My Spanish is really deplorable, but they kindly switched to English, for all of our sakes! LOL We checked into our room and found we had towels waiting on our beds with individual bottles of body wash for each of us. The area (Gothic) is an amazing place to wander. I use the word "amazing" a little tongue-in-cheek" because many of the streets are more like alleys, and it seems a bit like walking in a maze. LOL However, the area, the architecture, and most of all, the people are delightful and kind. We had a fantastic experience. I highly recommend this property if you are looking for a place to stay as an individual or a family. Again, though, keep in mind, it is a place to sleep. Not a 5-star hotel! Clean, safe and the area is beautiful! Thank you Hostal Hera for a great family experience.
