People at Hostal Eixample are super nice, we booked for 3 nights there and had a great stay. Room was not too big but perfect for two people, also because being in a city such as Barcelona we spent most of the time out wandering around, and coming back to that room was good enough. The shared room is very nice and cozy, you can get yourself a tea or a coffee at any time of the day or night.
The hostal location in Barcelona is just perfect! Without taking taxis or public transport, you can reach any interesting point of the city by walking a little. Literally five minutes away by Placa de Catalunya and La Rambla. Would definitely recommend, very nice hostel, welcoming and clean.
