Hostal BESTPRICE Barcelona Stadium

The staff were super friendly and always happy to help! The beds had really comfy, thick mattresses, and there were plenty of shared bathrooms and toilets, all nice and clean. We loved having a shared kitchen with a fridge and free tea, plus a coffee machine (€1 per coffee) and a drinks vending machine with pretty decent prices. Both machines only take cash, though. The balcony was a nice spot to chill. The area was surprisingly quiet, with great metro connections to the city centre and airport (Collblanc station is really close). Plenty of supermarkets and places to grab food nearby, too!

The double bed was actually two lightweight single beds pushed together, so they kept sliding apart whenever we moved. The pillows were way too flat and soft for us. The room also had a lingering cigarette smell when we arrived, even though smoking isn't allowed inside. The only way to get fresh air was to open the balcony door, but the neighbouring balconies were separated by low barriers that anyone could easily climb over, so we didn't feel comfortable leaving it open overnight. The heavy room doors made quite a loud bang when people shut them. Since everyone uses shared bathrooms, you hear doors slamming quite often, even during the night and early morning. It woke us up a few times. The Wi-Fi was pretty slow, even for basic browsing. The TV only had Netflix and Spanish channels, with no option to use other streaming apps like Disney+.

Great price and friendly staff. The proximity to the metro, bus, grocery stores was perfect.

My stay was perfect. No complaints!

I liked everything about my stay. The hotel was spotless and my room was large and had excellent air conditioning. The staff were very helpful and the manager allowed me to change my room as the noise from other guests was disturbing me. It didn't matter that the room wasn't ensuite as there were always clean bathrooms and toilets available. The location was brilliant, only 20 minutes to the Place De Catalunya and also on the train route to the airport. I think at £90 a night it represented excellent value for Barcelona in mid summer. Would definitely stay again.

Nothing

The rooms are fine for a short stay of 1–3 nights. I like the location and the free water, and the Wi-Fi was good too. Air conditioning in the room is a big plus for hot summer days.

Staff go home after midnight, so no one is there to enforce the rules. I’ve stayed in this hostel three times, and EVERY STAY was a complete mess at night, with people yelling and screaming. The worst sleep of my life was in this hostel.
