6/10 Good

Reasonable hostel but not great
Not as good as many hostels around LaRambla. In the first hostel I stayed on near a street running parallel, for less money, I got breakfast, had my own bathroom and toilet and comfortable furniture Reception at Dragonfly is only open for a few hours a day, quite a walk to get to tourist sites, and rooms are poorly furnished. It was ok, very clean but the shower for example is so small that you either have a shower curtain stuck to your back or your belly pushing the tap closed. Soap in the shower was very cheap and not pleasant smelling. All up I wouldn't go back there when so many better options are available. Owner/manager is very pleasant and helpful.

Perfect budget hotel in a great neighbourhood
This is a fantastic budget hotel in the perfect location! Firm and comfortable bed, a private shower in the room (which we weren't expecting), powerful A/C, and friendly service. It is in walking distance to almost everything, surrounded by great coffee shops and restaurants, and well-connected to transit. Amazing value for the price. I would absolutely stay here again and recommend it highly.

Great location, super clean property and affordable. Only recommendation is to bring ear plugs because staying in the gothic district in a heritage building is a little noisy but that’s to be expected :)

6/10 Good

The owners are helpful and accommodating. The room was very basic and had a few amenities such as towels and bathrobes. No elevator so if you have heavy luggage and are on the upper floors, it’s a long way up. Two toilets and 1 shower for a number of rooms. A sink in every room would be appreciated.

Finding the location was pretty straightforward. All the staff that we encountered were incredibly kind and professional. Great location for exploring the Gothic Quarter and other parts of Barcelona! The room was small, but had everything you could need and was quite clean. Our only complaint was that the walls were a bit thin, so the people in the room next to you can really impact the enjoyment of your stay. Would definitely recommend staying here!

I loved the location, and Angel was very nice and helpful. The walls are pretty thin but it wasn't busy enough to be an issue. There wasn't an elevator and we were on the third floor, but luckily my friend and I are able to climb stairs without issue.

The property manager was beyond welcoming. The room was clean, but modest. Lots of hot water. Towels changed every day even when we said it wasn't necessary. Everything worked. A great view of the street from the balcony. Wonderful neighborhood. There are quite a few steps to get to any of the rooms so perhaps not the best choice for anyone who isn't eager to climb a little. Good workout, otherwise.
