Excellent location, very nice service, clean bathrooms, rooms simple but nice. The hostel is located in the center, two minutes from Las Ramblas, walking distance from all the major Barcelona attractions, I am recomending it to anyone! Great service.. the only weak element is that it's not the quietest in the world but you can still get some quality sleep... More

Rude staff, dirty smelly rooms, tiny common bathroom... And pricy too! More

Had to go up 1 flight of steps to hotel. Good security. Very close to La Rambla and therefore close to most attractions, Mario who runs hotel was very nice and helpful - eventually managed to get a good flow of hot water for shower after a couple of days. If you have a room at front there can be... More

We stayed at Pension 45 for 3 nights of our 5 nights in Barcelona. We had read that there was noise, but thought it couldn be that bad. <it Was! The <pension is at a convergence of 3 streets that echo, and funnel the noise right into the hotel. <one lady we heard screaming- we went to check her out,... More

Normally I think hostels are MUCH cheaper, but for the 30th, 31st of December, this was the best deal we could find. Seriously: STAY IN A HOSTEL! Pension 45 was terrible. Dirty, creepy, in a bad neighborhod. Ok, the... More

If you want a night's sleep in this hotel, make sure to get blind drunk. Otherwise, either the noise in the street will keep you awake, or the owner's dog, barking all night in reception, will do the trick. Don't complain to the proprietor about his dog though, unless you can converse in fluent Spanish. He won't speak a word... More

Excellent location! BUT... my nephew stayed in a room infested with cockroaches. They were everywhere... on the floor, on the walls, and even in the closet. The room I stayed in was very very noisy. The balcony doors did not close all the way so you could hear the crowded street right below. The walls were so thin that we... More

We stayed here for 3 nights,besides the bad reviews we read about this hostel, there was nowhere else to book so cheaper, near the city center and with a private bathroom. Positive aspects: great location(2 minutes from Plaza de Catalunia), price, very quiet (the street is traffic free), the room was clean and the towels changed every day. Negative aspects:... More

Me and my girlfriend recently stayed here for 3 nights. We selected the property based on the price and great location and were aware of some of the poor reviews that others had given it here on "trip advisor". Our room was clean and functional, but was small and devoid of any charm. (Sorry about the poor picture of the... More
