Reviews of Generator Barcelona Hostel

The only positive aspect was the location. It was conveniently located near public transport, making it easy to explore the city. However, that's about the only good thing I can say about this place. Everything else was a letdown. I would not recommend staying here if you're looking for a good night's sleep and a pleasant experience.
The hostel was a disappointment overall. The reception staff were not friendly at all, and to make matters worse, the noise levels were unbearable.

The hostel has a young vibe, great facilities, and a stunning rooftop view. The beds are comfortable, and the all-female dormitory is worth the extra money. The staff is friendly and provides lots of city information.
Not one thing.

We loved the design of the shared female room, with separate rooms for the toilet, sink, and shower, which helped cut down waiting time. The individual storage space was huge, with two big mirrors and a hair dryer provided. The beds were comfortable and clean, and each bed had an individual light switch and outlet for charging our phones. We also appreciated the individual hanger and towel hook for each person. The hostel's terrace offered a beautiful view of the city and was a great place to relax and enjoy a drink and snacks. We met many interesting people from all over the world during our stay. The front desk was helpful and even printed our boarding passes for free. The hostel also offered daily free tours of the city and had a venting machine on the second floor for water and snacks. The lounge area was pleasant, and we enjoyed the food and drinks there.
Everything was fantastic.

Located conveniently between two subway stations, the hotel allows for easy access to all major attractions. Additionally, there's a bakery next door, perfect for a quick breakfast. The central location ensures that everything is within walking distance.
Some guests mentioned a lack of curtains in the rooms, which can be disruptive to sleep.

Thanksgiving at this hotel was excellent! The beds were very comfortable, and each bed had both an outlet and a light, making it easy to read late without bothering our roommates. Additionally, the location was perfect for exploring the city, with easy access to public transportation. We also appreciated the friendly and helpful reception staff and the complimentary taxi service to the airport.
While our stay was overall great, there were a few small things that could have been improved. The hotel could have offered more options for tourist programs and activities, as there were only a few options available.
