Hostal Levante Barcelona

Excellent spot for a quick night in Barcelona on my way home to the US. Great location near La Rambla and easy metro trip to the Sagrada Familia (less than 20 minutes). There's a lively square just steps away with cafes, live music, and entertainment in the evenings. I had a single room with bath and it was very small with a window into a light well, but it was clean and comfortable and I only slept there, so it was all I needed. People at the front desk were so nice and arranged for a taxi to the airport for me for the next morning. If you want luxury, it's not your place, but if you want safe, quiet, clean accommodations close to everything, this place has it. Speaking of quiet, I read some reviews that said it was noisy, but I didn't hear a sound! I was on the second floor near reception, so I thought I might hear people coming in late, but not a peep!

The location is really central. The reception ladies and gents were really nice and helpful. We arrived earlier, but our room was ready and and after check out we could leave our baggage in a storage. The room is smaller, but clean (and it was cleaned every day of our 3 night stay). It was quiet, although, you could hear people walk in our out of the neighouring room - it didn´t bother us. Oh and there is a kettle on the room , so bring your tea with you. There is a store just under the Hostal, very well served. And try Soul Cafe for a healthy breakfast.

We stayed in a room with a private bathroom. The stay was of great value since Barcelona is quite expensive. The room is basic but if you don't need a 5 star stay you will be happy. The beds are comfy and the cleaners came each day. The staff were helpful when our flight got cancelled due to a storm. Overall happy with our stay!

Excellent location in the gothic quarter. It was a 15 min walk to a metro station. Tons of things to explore and see in the area. My room was perfect for a solo traveller. The window was to an internal ventilation shaft so there is no view or people watching opportunities, but you can get fresh air and it keeps it a bit quieter than it would have been. I like the fact they have to return the keys when you depart for the day because then you have zero worry about losing them while you're out and about. The desk is manned 24/7 so while I had to go up an extra flight of stairs each time as I was one floor down from the main desk, it was no major undertaking. I told them I didn't want cleaning when I turned in my key for the day and my room was left alone as requested. I'd happily stay here again as a solo traveller for a few nights.

We were looking for a cheap but good hotel and that's is exactly what we found. Nice ad charming hotel and ecerything within walking distance. The staff was super friendly and enthusiastic and the rooms were clean. They clean every day! Oh and there's an elevator which is very handy!
