I love the way they value privacy where the beds have private curtains. It is a smaller facility that there is not too many people that it is more quiet than other hostels. The staff were great!

Great staff! To be honest the bed linen was quite old, but clean. The room has air conditioner so very cool I love it. Kitchen also very old but it doesn’t matter to use it. I used washing machine and dryer as a good price.

Perfect stay for solo travellers
Perhaps the best place ti stay in Barcelona. Near to many food options, place was clean and was just a 10 mins walk away from the 2 nearest metro station. People from around the world come to this hostel to mingle with each other, people were nice and amiable and i made a few friends in this hostel too! Definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to visit Barcelona!

It’s alright.
I’ve stayed in many hostels and this one is just okay. It felt like it was a super quite library. Tight spaces. Yes it’s not a party hostel nor should it be a “whisper” hostel either. The kitchen was in the basement and super hot. But it is a fully equipped kitchen if that’s what you would like and with a full size catering one door fridge. I didn’t feel comfortable sitting in the lounge because it felt like I had to buy a drink or pastures from their display. Pro: If you want to stay near a quite area and close to Park Guell...

Nice, comfortable, common area fine except not enough outlets to charge while there eating, furniture probably original and could be updated as it hurts to sit in any of the setees or chairs.

Nice hostel and friendly staff
Staff is very nice and helpful. Everything is within walking distance. I also enjoyed how the beds have a curtains, light and an electrical outlet. The storage locker was a great as well. The its large enough to store luggage. I would definitely stay at this hostel again. The cons are the washer and dyer did not work while I was there. The otherwise great place to stay.

Good private pod beds, but a bit out from centre.
I enjoyed the privacy and convenience of the pod beds with curtains, lights, a shelf and a power point. However with the curtains drawn it did get quite hot. I was on the top bunk and at 5"3 I could only just sit upright in the bed. Breakfast options were poor - tea, coffee etc and only sweet options to eat (cake, muffins, cookies - not really breakfast food in Mymensingh opinion). However as I was only there for 2 nights it was not worth purchasing food and using the kitchen. Kitchen had a microwave and stove top but no oven. Overall this stay was pretty good.

Lovely Place
Factory House Hostel was fantastic. Not only was it one of the cleaner hostels I've been in, but it also had an incredibly friendly and helpful married pair of owners. The room was clean, the bed was nice, and they had a kitchen with a stove that I didn't use but others were making full use of. It's about a 10 minute walk to Park Güell from the front door which was one of my favorite spots in Barcelona. It's also well within reach of public transit, and in a city so large, the neighborhood was quiet but dotted with some really nice little restaurants and supermarkets. I definitely recommend this place. If you aren't into hostels, that's okay but if you are the kind of person who doesn't care about sharing space with others, I highly recommend it.

Limpio, silencioso, buen ambiente, las recepcionistas UNAS GENIAS!!! Valentina la mejor!!! Me dieron tips de todo.... para recorrer y cómo viajar... Todo!!! También te dan un candado y un espacio para guardar tus pertenencias! Lo único no positivo es que hay un sólo baño en la habitación para 8 y abajo un baño más q suele no estar libre... Y se inundaba la ducha. Pero sólo eso.

Embarrassment
They don't accept guests over 40, but they don't mention it in the announcement - they talk about it at check-in. A very specific sense of humor of service. It smells of urine at the door.

Reception is not 24h as advertised. Bracelet key stopped working in the middle of the night, reception was empty and after calling the emergency number a dozen times to no avail, I had to sleep on the reception couch not feeling very safe. Don’t plan to use the luggage room or you will risk having no one to let you get your luggage back if you plan to visit something or check out early in the morning. The beds and facilities were otherwise clean and the staff was amicable. The hostel itself is a little far from the nearest station and further away from the center, especially if you plan on going everywhere on foot.
