March/2015 Someone from Valencia thinks:

  • Overall rating: 5.7
  • Would you recommend it? I don't know
  • Positive: La localización. Facilidad de acceso. Servicios cercanos. Calidad/Precio en comparación con otros hostales de Barcelona
  • Negative: Los servicios que aparecen como tales en la web no son reales (por ejemplo, se habla de un horario de atención presencial de recepción y jamás hubo nadie). Además, fallo muy básico en amenities (éramos dos y proporcionaban siempre para una persona). Por si fuera poco, la máquina de check-in falló varias veces hasta bloquear una tarjeta que funcionaba sin problemas en comercios y cajeros. Y las taquillas se tragaron la moneda de 2 euros cuando intentamos dejar las maletas. Por último, la pregunta inferior "Este establecimiento debería tener la categoría..." no se comprende.
  • I RECOMMEND it for... Young travelers, Budget travelers
  • I recommend it especially AGAINST... Older travelers, Families, Luxury, Peace seekers, Classic style lovers, Modern style lovers, Handicapped, Business travelers, Travelers with a car, Healthy lifestyle
  • Cleanliness: 10 Perfecto. Enhorabuena.
  • Location: 10 Perfecto.
  • Common facilities and services: 2.5 Cantidad insuficiente. Instalaciones muy escasas (por ejemplo baldas en el baño)
  • Staff: 10 Como se ha comentado anteriormente, nunca vimos a nadie pero sí es cierto que el recepcionista de Putxet nos atendió muy amablemente por teléfono.
  • Quietness: 2.5 Hay bares cercanos que nos dificultaron dormir durante las tres noches de estancia.
  • Room: 5 Tamaño correcto, Estado correcto, Equipamiento muy escaso.
  • Value for money: 5 Teniendo en cuenta el descuento, relación c/p ok.
