Teacher and students receive the same room - everything is way too small and too loud - 12 floors with young people, the day and night and leave. Always clogged, always loud. My class was over 5 floors, so that communication was hardly possible. Great is the huge terrace in the 3. stick with prospect (you can sleep since unfortunately not, but that can one anyway) read more

We occupied this hostel during the end of the year trip. Initially you had the impression, so that everything way too small is. So it was then also, more about that later. The front desk made a friendly impression. However at nearly all machines, the reception area were 'out of order'. With its about 12 floors was the hostel quite large. What however unfortunately was, was, that the class on different floors was, whereas in several floors the rooms were free, so that all in a floor fit could have been. No matter where you hinhörte and went. Almost everywhere ... German. The hostel was at 90% of German, 8% french, 1% americans and 1% populated by the native people. read more

    I stayed in a 6.- room. It was very small approximately 10 meters². You could hardly on its own axis and had also no possibility his suitcase off, so that in the trunk (2. the stick) camps had. The bathroom whereas was almost as big as the room... The airco in the room you could from the reception from be set. However saw the from, as if they the last time the installation for. Mold and other things looked at from of the airconditioning out. The bathroom was from the mold surrounded... Not only the shower head, but also the ceiling. And the window in the room was only decoration. Chews spanish law you could not open. Apparently the cleaning lady always for the stoßlüften have ensured, if you 5 minutes in the room cleaning... What was annoying, was, that the first 2 days always a the front desk had to come, to open the door, because the sensor was broken and a technician in couple of days could happen...

    The breakfast rather bad than the right one. Sealed ready made rolls, in addition packaged jam and nutella. Little fruits and small selection of cereals. Who cheese and ham like, if there no avail... Evenings there was also a kind of bar/pub open. There you could pool play, beer and pizza/ fries etc. Consume. The prices were reasonable( 0.3 liter beer 3 € pizza small about 22 centimeter diameter 5 €). One had also the possibility on the roof terrace to sit. This was rather dirty. Everywhere it was sticky, because again and again people sangria and there buried. However it was not wiped off...

    The staff consisted of many young employees, the all more or less good English. On request and request was mostly quickly. The room was daily 'cleaned': it was once the bathroom swept and possibly even vacuumed. Hung probably everything from the mood of the cleaning lady from...

    The hostel had a appropriate location. Nearby was a huge shopping mall with tons of clothes shops and schnellimbissrestaurants. Nearby was a mom and pop store, the traders fluent German to speak could. The Sagrada Familia one has from there within around 10 minutes away on foot reached. As well as the subway station reachable in a few minutes.

For young people or friends of all kinds, the didn't have high expectations and anyway not want to spend much time in the hotel is the urbany hostel very recommendable. In the field of food could be a little more work there, but the breakfast was rather sparse. In general it was still recommended=) read more

The twelve story hotel is suitable for students in principle, however only, if one has no pretensions. The bathroom was clean and there were in the rooms. But the rooms otherwise it was rather dirty. In addition the rooms much too small, you can't even turn on its own axis or his luggage somewhat spread. Cleaned only once a week. The breakfast is very poor. There are two types of knätschige rolls, jam and Nutella, Cereal and that was it. For those Price not good enough in my opinion. Positive to mention is, there is a free internet connection (PCs ... in the leisure area), and microwaves for possibly a little bit heat up. The metro station is literally on your doorstep, but it is up to the center or to the beach to foot hardly possible from the distance read more

Without question the hostel is very centrally located and you can all sights good! The room is it time friendly to describe very cramped. With six persons in a room you have to unpack the bags in the shift. The possibilities for storing tend to get crowded null. The narrow locker smells funny and has very little space. Unfortunately, you couldn't open the window and the air conditioning didn't work. With six persons in a room is a breath of fresh air wonderful Thing, the one in this hostel not enjoy. The duvets were cleaned, but there were still blood ... stain or other stains on the sheets. Unfortunately, it was not worth for getting the breakfast. Paper rolls in plastic wrap, yellow durable milk, strange cereal, apples runzelige, margarine and jam packed not entrap to praise. Not to mention the sugar-sweet orange juice. A highlight are the other guests! Coleopterists Jubelchöre people would break out ☺ For school groups and young people the hostel is quite good, about 20 years from should you but perhaps in a hotel check-in! read more

Modern but dirty! archived

A very modern hotel with a friendly atmosphere, but rather suitable for teenagers. There is free internet access. The staff made us feel rather unfriendly, because it's not on our needs (We complained about the dirty toilet! ). Our tables for 4 room was very very small. We didn't have a chance our bags spread out, not more than one was possible to open. We also had unfortunately no shelf either in the room or in the bathroom. The bathroom was really dirty, in the toilet were leftovers from the previous guests and on the door were Grabbelfinger and spritzers. ... The bed sheets were stained, as well as bed and pillows. The changing did not work. The cleaning lady comes once a day, it is located in what she does enter the list and the trash emptied. The transport links were very good, not even 2 minutes to walk and you was to the metro. We were glad we did as the breakfast and dinner was awful. Packaged honey buns, the really sticky and tasted old and there were only jam and Nutella for breakfast. Dinner was something from the restaurant from across the street, which was also inedible. We didn't really high standards, but the cleanliness and a decent food should also expect in the hostel. read more

The breakfast in the hostel is really not everyone thing, but I think you couldn't expect more than since it is included. But there are plenty of places to go in cafes nice breakfast place. The hostel offers in collaboration with the Nachbarclub gym and pool+locker rooms free of charge. The hostel is the design very youthful decorated and offers complimentary wireless Internet access in all over the house and there are also computers available. read more

I can really recommend the Urbany hostel. It is a fairly new cool hostel with everything you need. The rooms are not very spacious, however the request air conditioned and easy to get around with a space to navigate. The closets are well secured, so you must have no worries about things. The bathroom was really clean. The metro, tram or bus is good. The reception is 24 hour and the people are friendly and try help with everything. On my next visit to Barcelona I would go back in a heartbeat!! read more
