Liked: Great location- and breakfast and dinner is included! Very easy to meet people.

Disliked: No comfortable living space. Bar music too loud during the day and no plugs except on the main floor. Could not relax in the hostel and as a woman traveling alone- did not feel particularly safe .

Liked: The location couldn't have been better, and the atmosphere was great. It's bio on hostelbookers didn't do it justice, there was so much more included then what was stated. We got a free walking tour, and free dinner! I've never been to another hostel that's done that for us. It was nice, and super unexpected.

Disliked: It could have been a little cleaner.

Liked: Its a party hostel so expect it to be noisy. We booked a 4 person room but were given a double which was nice. Breakfast is good dinner is better if you get in line first as its first in best dressed. The nights out were good as well as its good to go out with other travellers. Make sure ur around for happy hour - well worth it

Disliked: we had to wait an hour to check in at 3pm when there were 4 people waiting behind the desk not doing anything.

Liked: This is the perfect hostel if you are looking to go out and party. There is a very open atmosphere making it easy to meet other people and it is in a great location. That said, with a party hostel comes people throwing up, smoking, and having sex in the room. All of the above happened during my stay. Choose to stay here only for your party nights and not your whole trip in Barcelona. Also, the pub crawl is only 7 euros ... and is only worth 7 euros, I reccomend skipping it.

Disliked: see above.

Liked: Loved the atmosphere at Kabul= the staff interact with everyone staying there, Pub crawls are organised every night and also free dinners. The common area is set up so that everyone has to mingle which is great for meeting new ppl. Very much a party hostel with a great vibe.

Disliked: The only downfall is the beer on tap at the bar is awful and there is no other drinks available, but we snuck in some of our own, although they dont encourage this.
