Hostal Paraíso

Fantastic rooms , the shared bathroom are unbelievably clean for my expectations, friendly staff and 24h reception. The main gate is a bit ambiguous at first but you can call the reception from outside with a button. Overall would recommend and will be an option for future.

Awful, unbearably hot, and fraudulently-represented dive! Contrary to Agoda posting, it never had A/C in dorm rooms and over half of the fans are not working properly. Showers are barely trickling cold water and toilets don't flush well; stench everywhere! Thin, sagging mattresses and tiny hard pillows don't help things either ... I did not get even a wink of sleep and left for the airport several hours early, hoping for some nap time there! Further, a receipt from Agoda showing all taxes/fees to be included is claimed to be "fake" and an extra 7 euros is extorted as some phony "tourist tax", since they know that it will not turn away tired travelers with heavy luggage! Steer clear of this dive at all costs -- there are much better options within a short walking distance or a one-stop Metro ride!! This was definitely my worst stay over the past few years!

no clean, dirty... toilets dirty.... for that price is not good at all

Recommended for savvy travellers. Nice, fairly clean place with friendly staff at reception with 24/7 availability. The private twin room wasn’t huge but okay for a short stay. The location is good, a short walk to Parallel, San Antoni or Poble Sec metro stations, good links to most of the main sites. We liked the local area as it is colourful and lively, with more modestly priced food options but certain nearby streets may feel a little intimidating late at night.
