Casa-Barcelo-Hostel is in a great neighborhood near many public transportation stops, bars, and clubs. I cannot speak for the standard hostel, but booking through Airbnb meant we got breakfast and a private room for our group which was key to our happiness with our lodging. Overall, good value and location although I wish the bathrooms were en-suite and that they told us they had towels to use so I didn't have to bring one.
