The ambience of the place was lovely with its soft lighting and attractive furnishings. Very warm, welcoming and comfortable space.
This place was great for what I needed, I was travelling alone visiting a friend and Hostal Goya was just perfect, close to everything, my room had a interior window and that make it dark, quiet and cozy, the bed was comfortable, they have caffe machine in the común area, the bathroom wasn’t attached to the bedroom but was right in front of the room and was just for me, I will recommend stay there
We stayed at the Family size room which has a balcony, living room and kitchen. The size is good for a family and we can make our own breakfast everyday. The staffs were friendly and helpful too!
Only problem was the ants in the living room, they came in from the balcony, quite a lot.
Truly enjoyed the friendly and professional staff. They were so helpful. The bathroom was really clean and the building was in a great location. Would easily recommend to solo travelers who want their own bathroom.
We had a lovely stay at Hostal Goya. The staff was very responsive and kind. Flor offered wonderful suggestions for things to do. The highlight of our stay was going to a flamenco show just a short walk away. Convenient and close to the metro and major attractions. Gracias!

Location is brilliant and the room was always clean with fresh bedding and towels. The walls are very thin and there is an outside lift so it can be noisy. Very good for location though.
The cleaning service was the best.
I was disappointed that the sound insulation wasn't good, but you were kind, and I was able to rest well cleanly and neatly!
More than expected. It was a full apartment with kitchens and nice patio. Staff was very welcoming and offered water and muffins upon arrival on the unit. Working elevator. Comfortable beds and very quiet in the apartment even when a full party outside near Plaça de Catalunya. Close proximity to shops and restaurants. Staff gave very helpful directions and recommendations of places to see and eat nearby. Traveled with 3 children and there was no issues. Taxi from airport to this location was approximately 40-50 euros. Would recommend this place especially for bigger groups.
For å hostel its one of the better ones I’ve stayed at. Room was a bit warm as it turned out AC was not AC, but only heating. Received a small breakfast bag with info on guided trips around Barcelona, the weatherforcast etc.
Small but pleasant hotel, very conveniently located near the Plaça de Catalunya. Clean, with friendly staff.
Separate, private, bathrooms and no breakfast available, but there is a lounge with tea and coffee facilities, a refrigerator and micro wave oven. In the morning each guest receives a muffin and a fruit juice, bakeries are nearby.
I was a solo traveler and stayed at the hostel for 5 nights. The location was perfect, just a short walk from Plaça de Catalunya. I had booked a room with a private bathroom, but I noticed it wasn’t directly inside the room — instead, it was just across the hallway. It was still private, as you needed a code to access it.
Both the bedroom and bathroom were cleaned daily, and the bed was comfortable. There was also a common room with a water dispenser, tea, coffee, and milk, and each morning the staff prepared a small snack bag for guests.
Everything was very nice, the only thing I could point out is that the rooms are not very well soundproofed (you can hear your neighbors), but since I had earplugs with me, it didn’t feel like a major inconvenience.

Not recommended for solo traveller, shower is too small, even for petite person, not comfortable. View from window is opposite another wall, no view at all.
Entrance in hotel building looks terrible, like in a horrible movie.
Le seul point négatif, c'est l'affichage de l'hôtel ce n'est pas évident de trouver l'établissement. Suggestion aller sur street view avant de vous y rendre.
Mais Lucia est d'une gentillesse remarquable.
Merci Lucia.
Utrolig koselig sted! Fikk god hjelp uansett hva vi spurte om eller lurte på. Rommet vi hadde (103) hadde tilgang til en stor terrasse med bord, stoler og parasoll. Fin fellesstue med kaffe/te og vann automat ble mye brukt. Fin avstand til så og si alt. Kommer til å bo her igjen!
