    Room and bathroom were a bit small but we were actually pleasantly surprised being an hostel.

    Really good and clean hostel, very well located. Staff very friendly. Room very clean. For a short stay is perfect.

    The shower handle was broken but still usable. :) No air conditioner, but two fans did their work acceptably.

    The location in Gothic quarter, not far from the sea and Catalonia square. The price among other places in Barcelona.

    Single room had a good ceiling fan, but would have been nice to have a small aircon, as it was very hot (middle of summer!) Not a huge issue though

    This is a great little place, tucked away in the old Gothic Qtr. Close to metro Liceu on the L3 line and easy to access all Barcelona sights. Close to some great bars and tapas restaurants. Very friendly and helpful staff (especially Maria and Nuariel). Clean basic room (mine was a small single with shared bathroom). Very clean bathrooms and a good shower. 24hr reception, was great and safe in each room was a bonus too. They also have bigger rooms with bathrooms. Would recommend as it is excellent value for money.

    Check-in was supposed to be at 13.00 but we couldnt enter our room until 14.00. That was frustrating. The room didnt had A/C, it had a ceiling fan. But it was still a bit hot. Also a fridge in the room could be great

    The location was really good. It was in the center Gotic Area. You could see a lot of historic places by foot. It was close to Metro and Bus stations. The shared restrooms were really clean, they clean a few times a day. And the room was cleaned daily. The staff was really helpful.

    The windows were double-glassed so can keep most neighbourhood noise out. however as the property is old, the sound from the water pipes can be quite loud sometimes depending on how early/late other guests shower

    Location was great, walking distance to key attractions and restaurants

    I wish I could smoke on the balcony instead of going down the stairs & a bit less noise between the rooms. I could hear the neighbours.

    Central, very close to everything.

    a little noisy sometimes at night but to be expected as you are right in the bustle of gothic quarter, but with window closed not overly noticeable.

    Nice staff, excellent location for a solo traveller right in the gothic quarter close to museums and lots of good shopping, restaurants/bars and beach/quay

    Can be noisy from outside and also walls are very thin, so you can hear noice from the rooms and corridor.

    Very friendly and helpful staff. Comfortable room. We had a room with private bathroom, bathroom was clean and big enough with soap and shampoo. Several sockets in the room and near the bad.

    There were non smoking signs everywhere, but there was a unbearable stench of joints in the little hall that gave acces to our room and 2 other rooms. Yet nobody intervened to reprimand the guest who was smoking joints in his room. There was also a lot of noise from the other guests, even at night.

    Great location, nice, helpful and polite staff. Bed was comfortable but a bit small. The room was basic but clean and quite spacious.

    The decoration needs updating, and tricky places to dust (behind heaters and pipes) needs to be done .

    The location is superb. The harbour is just down the road, lots to do on your doorstep and near to the Metro. It was good to have a sink in the room and a comfy bed. Housekeeping came in everyday so the room was clean and fresh.

    Barcelona Gotic Guesthouse is great!

    It was in the heart of the Gotic Quarter. Everything was at walking distance. Reception staff were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about the city and sites to see. The cleaning of the room was very good. Clean towels every day, and the bed was also made every day. The shower and toilet were very clean too. As we were staying on the top floor and there is no elevator in the building, it it not suitable for people with a physical disability. The price is very low, we had good value for money. The only disadvantage I was able to think of is that you can hear the people in the next room very well. For us, it was not a problem. We had a great stay there and I will definitely go there when I return to Barcelona.

    - The district it's located in has very narrow streets which means there's never any sun in the rooms - I'm not a huge fan of the system that the room keys have to be given to the reception for safekeeping whenever going out, but I understand that it is so for security reasons (and the reception is open 24/7 anyway)

    + My room had a sink which I found very comfortable, it definitely reduces the traffic in the public bathroom (which already wasn't big; there were two bathrooms on the floor and one of them was usually free) + WiFi always working + The rooms were cleaned daily, trash taken out etc, it's a very clean facility + All staff speaks English and is very helpful + Location is very good, plenty of restaurants around, close to the harbour, the cathedral and Montjuic, close enough to metro stations
