Chris was very accommodating, location was excellent and the rooms had beautiful high ceilings and great facilities. Would definitely come back here next time I’m in Barcelona on the basis of incredible customer service alone.

Great place!
We had 5 nights in Barcelona. Comfortable beds, very quiet, great staff, excellent location!! We appreciated the air conditioning too. We would definitely stay here again - thanks!
Pierre, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

The place location is good and clean. What bothered me most was because it doesn't tell you that the private bathroom aren't attached to the room, you have to walk to use it, . Everything else is nice
Raed, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice stay for the money, the room got very hot but that was a minor issue, they look after your bags for the rest of the day after checking out and they allowed us to check in at 2.30 am free of charge
Dylan, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great find
Great set up for the private rooms. Clean, modern, comfortable. The window overlooking the street does let in sounds when people are being loud on the street. It was fine during our stay though.
Luc, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Read some bad reviews before the trip. But actually my experience was top-notch! We had a private room with separate private toilet. (including schampoo/conditioner and body lotion). Linen and towels were included. A beautiful private balcony! The building has lots of charme, the location is super-central and staff’s amazing. Big, modern, clean kitchen available. With storage in fridge/freezer.
Mikaela, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Want sheets? That’s an extra charge. A Towel, that’s extra too. Want to secure your items in the locker, use the laundry? All that’s extra. All you get is a bed and mattress for the cost. There are 3 Toilets and sheets for men and 3 for women, so when the hostel is full you will have to wait.

8/10 Very good

Hip Karma Hostel was a great place to stay! We were a group of 14 people so booked the 8 bed and 6 bed rooms (both private - only us). The bathrooms are shared with everyone in the hostel but we had no issues with this - they were kept clean and tidy, and no queues. The only issue we had was that you have to pay for bedding (not included on booking), and even though we booked the whole room, we weren’t allowed a key to the bedroom. The person at reception had to keep opening the bedroom door for us every time. Luckily there is someone on reception 24/7, but for security reasons, it was a bit uncomfortable as anyone could say they are in that room. But overall, a great stay and would come again as a big group.

Interdit aux familles
Bonjour, attention bien qu’ayant une chambre privative, on nous on a annoncé à l’arrivée que c’était interdit aux enfants de moins de 10ans… après discussion nous avons pu prendre notre chambre mais avec menace d’être mis à la porte au moindre bris… ce qui est particulièrement ironique puisque nous avons souffert du bruit la nuit des chambres voisines. Enfin, il faut payer draps et serviettes en plus ! Bref ce n’était pas le bon plan

TOTALMENTE RECOMENDABLE!
Excelente y cómoda habitación para 3 personas con baño privado y balcón cerrado con mesa. Una excelente experiencia! Muy cerca de todo, del metro, de supermecado, cafés, restaurantes y sitios de interés. Laura y Xavi, nos brindaron apoyo y soporte siempre que lo requerimos.

Buscamos un alojamiento a última hora y Karma fue la mejor opción. Muy agradable la chica de la recepción, las estancias muy amplias y con todo lo necesario. Incluso para una estancia más larga. Recomendable.

Perfekt
Vi bodde i rum för tre personer med toa för oss. Det var perfekt! Boendet har delat kök där man kan lägga sina grejer i kylskåpet. Städning var utmärkt! Vandrarhemmet ligger nära tunnelbanan och centrum.

Alt i alt et virkelig godt ophold til den pris. Vi havde eget værelse med eget toilet og alt var godt. Internettet drillede dog og kunne ikke trækkes ind på værelset. 20 minutters gang til centrum af Barcelona, og ellers var der en metro eller bus lige ude foran
