Be Hostels
Great central location, very friendly, English speaking staff, free WiFi and computers in the common area and very clean. As a solo traveling woman who values my privacy and security, I have stayed in the single rooms which have tv’s, private balconies and a/c. The shared bathrooms are the cleanest and most modern of any hostel’s I have visited in Europe. There are also apartments with private bathrooms and dorm rooms, too. I have been to Barcelona twice and stayed at two locations. When I return to Spain, I will stay here again and will always recommend it. I am older, but I didn’t feel like it was a “party hostel.” It was usually quiet and when it wasn’t, ear plugs and the tv on low worked well for sleeping.

El Granado Hostel
El Granado is centrally located, 5 minutes from the Cathedral and we could walk anywhere we needed to go to get to buses, the train station, restaurants, nightlife and the city’s historic attractions. The staff was particularly impressive with their attentiveness to guests and knowledge of the city. The building itself is more like a huge home, where guests are spread out in different parts of it. We felt like we had the place to ourselves most of the time. We weren’t the only people staying there but fellow guests were quiet and courteous and it was a great place to relax.

U Hostel
It’s the cleanest hostel I’ve ever been in, for starters. It has everything you need and adds all the little things, like power outlets beside each bed, which I absolutely love. It’s a fun place to stay. There are swings in the hallways, a big movie room, a bar downstairs, and lots of activities on most nights. But the best part is it’s nice and quiet up in the bedrooms so you can sleep if you want to. It’s located in a great spot, a quick walk to the very center of the city and right next to Malasaña, an area with good shopping and great bars.

Mana Mana Hostel
Really friendly, owned by a young Spanish/Polish couple who work very hard. Has a beautiful rooftop terrace where I met lots of lovely people, including several other solo travelers. Close to one of the main shopping streets and only 5 minutes from the beach. It’s perfect for some R&R, but you also might want to take a boat trip, SCUBA dive, take in a castle ruin, or head out to one of the 3 beaches all of which are pretty easy to get to. I went initially planning on stopping for 3 nights, 4 max but instead stayed for 5. Had a fantastic time there! It’s aimed at young people, and there are some nice bars nearby. But it’s not a big party place. I ended up starting the night on the rooftop terrace with friends, going to a bar or two and then finishing the night with a quiet drink on the moonlit beach. Lovely! Also there’s a decent kitchen for cooking in. It also has a washing machine and a computer along with WiFi. It’s very clean, and has good-sized lockers to put all your stuff in. Rooms vary in size to accommodate from 4 to 6 people, I believe.
