Pros +
- It was pretty quiet and had friendly staff.
- Really great location, losts of restaurants, cafes and even clubs nearby. Friendly staff was a huge plus. The place was clean and well kept, also felt safe.
- Quiet, small, loved the kitchen
Cons -
- One of the shared bathrooms was out of hand soap for 3 days, but we also did not notify the staff and just used our own soap.
- The only downside was the shared bathrooms, you sometimes had to wait a while for others to finish up
- Bathroom. There are only 2 for the whole hostel. No separate toilets.And there is nothing on the floor outside the shower which makes it very slippery.

Friendly staff, great location, flexible check-in hours. Walkable distance from train station. Simple but clean place.
I staid for 1 night only, just to sleep over before moving on to next destination. For someone with sensitive sleep might not be the best rest place - thin walls transfer sounds well (someone taking shower, neighbors activities, foot steps, etc). Other then that, no complains.
Location, cleanliness, safe
Quite small
Clean place with great communication and nice personel
The vibe of the hostel was great and the staff were very accommodating. Free coffee and popcorn within your stay (but note there is a timing for when it is available). The Hostel is located in Diagonal which makes for a perfect location to go around the shops, cafes and restos.
Compared to the photos in Booking.com they are a bit outdated. Maybe sheets, pillows quality should be updated as well. The bathroom only had one hook to hang your towel in, would've been nice if there were more or even a shelf to place in your clothes for changing.

Location was good, easy transport to other areas and great food options/bars local. Building had a lift and a good kitchen and communal area
I didn't find it to be a super social space if that is what you're looking for. They did have a hostel chat but it was for an external agency - nothing specific to the hostel.
WOW is clean and tidy with friendly staff. Has everything you need for a stay in Barcelona. Nothing fancy but does the job! Staff were friendly & the hostel had elevators which was a treat with our luggage. Our room had air conditioning and we had no noise issues during our stay.
Everything was good.
Close to the place I wanted to visit. Much cleaner than the places where I’ve stayed. Staff was good and they were available at the desk. All of them could communicate well.
Clean and close to the place I came for.
accommodating staff and the cleanliness of the rooms and facilities
for me its little bit pricey for a hostel in the area
I definitely loved the location! We had a nice, comfortable and clean private room. The staff was friendly and helpful. The access to the kitchen is pretty convenient for a quick breakfast.
The room was advertised as having air conditioning included in the fee, but it's actually coin-operated — something that should have been disclosed in advance.
Great value for money and staff were so helpful and kind
Bed was uncomfortable but also staying in a hostel so it is expected
Good locationGood staffPretty good kitchen/common areaAir-conditioner works
Room 3 is not good. Bad bed, old stained sheets and towelsDead insects all over the floor near windowBathrooms not greatView from window was internal building shaft so no breeze or fresh airNot good value for the high price we paidMaybe other rooms are nicer? Room 3 is not nice.Pictures online look very good. In reality, not so good
The lobby was really cool, we loved the big windows letting in natural light. And the reception was very friendly. There’s a lift to take you up to the floor so that you don’t have to climb all of the stairs if you do not want to.

We enjoyed our stay here at Wow Hostel! The staff were very lovely, accomodating and friendly! The amenities were good with a pool table, bathrooms / toilets, kitchen and it was nice to see the Hostel Dog! We enjoyed the area that the hostel was in :) great stay!
The room was clean and came with fresh towels. The bathroom was also well-organized and spotless. The location was excellent — close to everything and with easy access to public transportation. Great place to stay in Barcelona!
Nice recommended with asian and filipinos.You can cook and near to the cities and attractions. Nice staff
Nothing! Everything is great
We had a great stay at Wow Hostel! We were surprised how clean, well equipped and friendly is the place. The stuff was so communicative and friendly. The dog at the hostel, Luca, made our stay even more pleasant! The best way to relax after a full day of visiting, playing some pool at the reception and playing with the adorable dog! It definitely worth the money and I warmly recommend it!
Hard to think of something.
