Hostal Elkano

Staff doesn’t speak English so if you don’t speak Spanish, you can use Google translate in your phone to communicate with them. There are two shared bathrooms. They have a pantry (free to use anytime but limited space) with free cold drinking water from water dispenser, hot water in an electric kettle, instant coffee and tea. Plates and mugs can be used too. They will knock on your door if you are making noises after midnight. Tax to be collected at the property can be paid using card. They are located in 1st floor and there is also small lift just for the luggages. Reception is 24/7 so we were able to check out early and leave our luggages which were stored in a closed room near the reception. Location is walking distance near Poble Sec metro station. The street of the hotel is being reconstructed so you can only walk on the sidewalks. Our room was just right outside the shared bathroom so it was really accessible. Felt safe as the receptionist is just there 24/7. Need to press Elkano doorbell to enter the building. Room was spacious for us 3 compared to the other Triple Room we booked during our Europe trip. This was the cheapest stay available during our dates and have mixed reviews. This was a good deal.

This is a very nice experience. The room has single bathroom, but I know it is not all rooms have single bathroom. I don’t have communication problems with the reception. This hotel is near the metro. Low price with high quality!

Location, room and hostal opportunities was very good but unfortunately the voice insulation was terrible. All the other peoples speaking and movement are like in your room so u can sleep well.

very clean room, good location, very convenient. but clearly can hear neighbor room they were having sex, make me insomnia almost the whole night
