    The people from the reception all have been super nice and welcoming. All the rooms have been clean and the bed has been super comfortable. It's located close to the Bus station and there is a lot to explore around. I really recommend staying there. Also if you are a single travelling woman*.

    High amount for accommodation after midnight. We understand that this requires additional travel for the owners but in our opinion it could be a lower amount.

    Great location, close to shops, restaurants, most of the attractions in Barcelona can be reached on foot. We had a room with its own bathroom, we didn't have to pay extra for towels and sheets, it was very clean, shared kitchen well equipped.

    We struggled to get in the the apartment complex at first and on checking out nobody was answering the door so that we could leave the keys. The pillows weren’t very comfortable.

    It was well located, near to transport links. It had everything you could need and was modern. We didn’t realise that we had access to a fridge and cooking facilities until we arrived but this only made it better!

    The location is great. And in general it is a good place.

    The check-in process was a little long. As their system went down, but they didn’t explain this to us until we asked as we had been waiting a while. The staff were friendly and helpful overall.

    The location of the property was great. Plus the private rooms and bathroom were up to a very high standard as it looks like they were recently renovated. The cleanliness of the place was one if not the best I’ve seen at an accommodation. The cleaning lady was constantly cleaning and to a high standard as there was not a spec of dust anywhere. The location was ideal with so many restaurants and shops and walking distances to most tourist sites and a metro literally on the door stop. For the price this was an amazing choice. Would highly recommend.

    The automatic light on the toilet was annoying. It turned off every 5-10 seconds and was on the nerve. The house address on booking is wrong. (It's 1).

    The personnel were really kind and helpful. It has a clean kitchen with a place to eat. In general it was quite clean and I found it safe. I would recommend to pay for the sheets, because there's none on the bed. I found it in a good location though.

    That you have to pay extra for bedding as well as a towel. Not the end of the world but it all adds up. Not an issue for me, but be weary that you hear absolutely everything through the walls etc.

    Location was great, the facilities were clean and staff friendly. I liked the curtains on the beds.

    The bunks sway, and the window needs a blind at the top to block out street light.

    Easy walking distance to everything I wanted.

    Kettle didn't work, had to heat up water on the stove which wasn't ideal. The place was a little expensive, and could have been cheaper but we expected to pay more for a good place near the city centre. AC was also not working.

    Beds were comfy and private, despite sharing a room. Close to the city centre. Liked the kitchen facilities and was often able to cook.

    What I didn't like is the supplement charges that we need to pay, I know the city taxes are out of the hostel's responsibility but the supplement charges for a pillow is something that I didn't appreciate even if it is just 2 euros.

    The property of the hostel is so remarkable which I appreciated a lot, the staff aswell they are so friendly and professional. The location is ideal for the prices proposed. I really enjoyed my journey in Kip Harma hostel and recommend it for anyone who wanna vists Barcelona.
