I stayed four days in the hostel, it can be reached good by tram or busses, the metro is a bit far away. The area is save and I think also calm compared to other parts of Barcelona. I paid a low price and was surprised that the free breakfast was okay and you have most things you need in the morning. If you need more you can prepare in the kitchen. The reception team and the night security was really friendly. The rooms are not big but has it's own bathroom and separat toilet. My roommates and me took care about the room and the cleaning was regular. You can open the window, that is good when up to 8 persons sleep at night. Our room has a view to the outside breakfast area. For budget traveler it is good, you also have a laundry and rent towels for a low price. But think about the young people, they are going party late, so you need to like that.
