Flimsy loud beds, very loud storage lockers that don't fit normal locks (bad security). The hallways smell of piss. It's cheap and you get what you pay for. At least the staff are very nice, it seems dependable and reliable which is the most important thing. They have a nice rooftop terrace to hang out on as well.
I just loved it. They are so nice, the room, baths, kitchen areas were always clean and well taken care of. The bed for me was comfortable and being a Solo Traveler I felt always safe. The place is close to places to ear, metro starion and bus stop, places to do groceries and even I didn't participate they have a group.where tjey are always doing fun stuff for the people staying there. I definitely recommend them and I would be staying again soon.
I enjoyed my time at hey Lola, good location, close to metro and bus stops. Cute tapas bar right next to it. Clean rooms, friendly staff. definitely less social than other hostels but that is the guests choice not the hostels.
although the location was very convenient and close to the metro, I stayed 3 nights. I couldn't get any rest. I was next to the kitchen, it was very noisy, loud music, they had gatherings past 11pm, close to 12am. They have a WhatsApp group that meets every night, although it might be fun, but not everyone participates. I was tired but, I couldn't sleep until the gathering was done and they close the kitchen at 12am. I ended moving to other hostel
Only good thing is the friendly staff. Other travellers were unsociable, booked a hostel which was promoted at 5 beds to find out they sleep minimum 10 a room, had my phone stolen in Barcelona and have tried to make contact with the hostel regarding some written proof I spoke to reception on this and havenât heard back. Iâm sure thereâs more social hostels around Barcelona.
