    The last night some guests were very loud during night hours (probably they came back from a party since it was week end), but that’s not something that the hotel can be blamed for!

    Everything was amazing and above our expectations. Staff friendly and helpful. Room was amazing: super clean and comfortable! the outdoor patio aswell! Bathroom was excellent: the property provides you with a hairdryer, disposable bathroom kit and a straightener aswell!!! Great was also the common areas like the kitchen and the living room: very clean and tidy aswell. Olivia Barcelona also provides as courtesy for all the guests a free breakfast! 10/10!

    Nothing. Everything was perfect, very clean, beautifully presented. Best shower, bathroom amenities, usb charger ports by the side of bed, excellent bedding. We were a family of four, we had a very nice balcony with sofas to relax. The common area was very welcoming. We have never stayed in a hostel/hotel in-this budget who provides you with so much comfort and think of every possible need you have, it was unbelievably wonderful.

    It’s a hostel, they provide you with a kitchen if you want to make hot breakfast, if not there are fresh pastries,bread, fruit, coffee.

    There wasn't a tv which isn't so important for someone on holiday but it could be useful . I would've liked to have seen some spanish tv.

    I loved the design, the choice of furniture and accessories, especially the beach towels and I also loved the various areas to sit and relax.

    The carpet has a lot of wood or grass debris, which stick to clothes, especially when kids are playing on the floor. But they kindly removed it after we requested. Thanks.

    Very near to the Metro station. Newly renovated and clean.

    Nothing really

    I was very surprised about the standards of the place. The name says hostel , but it had higher standards than some hotels. The design of the accommodation, the service and the care factor was absolutely amazing. The beds were super comfy, the bathroom, the quality of the towels and products... Never thought I'd bring my family to a hostel, but that is not your usual hostel and it is family friendly and quite luxurious. We will definitely come back when in Barcelona again

    Was a bit hesitant when it said hostel but was absolutely perfect for our young family

    Beautiful place and had everything we needed for our last days in Barcelona. We also loved the area, only 20 min with the metro to La Rambla. A little game/play room that our kids enjoyed, and we could relax in our private terrace. Quiet and calm, exactly what we needed!

    This place is a real hidden gem, and writing this review might change that. It's such a lovely, comfy place, you don't want to leave. The rooms are beautiful, the terrace is huge and everything from getting breakfast to the staff is just awesome. It's great place!

    The property is exceptionally clean. The sizes of the beds, rooms and bathrooms are larger than expected with almosy everything provided for. It feels like youre staying a friend's home and the palce is super welcoming. Very comfortable, quiet and the outdoors terrace area is superb! I had a really wonderful stay. Additionally, they were extremely kind and adjusted the dates of my stay as my visa was delayed - that is something which really stood out to me. Sheila is very thoughtful and ensures that the guests have a comfortable stay. They also let me leave my luggage after check out and gave me access to a super clean bathroom and shower in case I wanted to use that before heading to the airport - several hours after my check out! The breakfast is a vibe - fresh oranges, fruits, bread, lots of coffee and tea available! They also provide eggs that you can cook the way you like. The place is so tastefully decorated in shades of beige and sage, and puts one at ease the moment you enter the space! I'll surely come back and stay again!

    Everything about this place is gorgeous. They put so much attention to detail… It feels like being at home in a gorgeous apartment of your own. I will only stay here when visiting Barcelona from now on. Extremely clean, tidy, well located (20 min walk from Sants Station and multiple supermarkets) and amazing customer service.

    The parking situation was inconvenient, especially because there really isn't a place to load/unload your car at the property itself. If you're not driving, it is fantastic.

    No one in my family could say that.... Only thing I didn't like: We didn't spend much time here :)

    Everything :) The location, the facilities, the shared kitchen, the terrace, the staff and their attitude, tips, etc. The accommodation itself, its atmosphere, the kindness of the staff was already an experience even before Barcelona caused any experiences. Renovated, sophisticated, modern, child-friendly (7-year-old girl and 10-year-old boy). Shops, market, metro, restaurants, tapas bar, bakery, pastry shop a few steps away, Camp Nou a pleasant walk

    I don't think it markets itself as one of the hostels that also do events. That can be an avenue for improvement. Location is not very far from the centre; i'd say it's midway. There are other hostels located much farther. In the room there are two private lockers available if I'm not mistaken. I don't know if all 4 beds have private baggage lockers. There are about 6 (or 9?) metro stops to Catalunya square. My memory fails me.

    Separate beds + curtains around them(!) Doors have automatic digit locks. Everything was clean. I liked the terace and the full cupboards with teas; some cereal was also available. Renting the towel didn't cost extra.
