The Hostal was clean, quiet, simple, and easy to access. The location is very close to food, drink, and public transportation. I would absolutely stay here again.
I want to comment specifically on communication. My flight from London to Barcelona cancelled and I did not arrive for my first night. I was most concerned about losing my room, even though I had paid. It just seems that sometimes when one thing goes wrong everything else starts to fall apart (yes, even though I paid upfront). But the reservation held. I communicated my flight situation with the host and they were very reassuring and responsive that the room was mine. It was nice to arrive the next day and check in right away. I really appreciated the reassurance provided by the host!
