I have stayed in several Generator hostels and this one is in desperate need of some repairs and upgrades. The showers are too small and constantly flooding or leaking. They are mislabelled and no one seemed to be able to tell us if the bathrooms on each floor were neutral or gendered - even though they had gendered signs on them. There were light fixtures leaking water and flooding in the main lobby and the loft area. This hostel was also used extensively by school groups during our stay which led to lots of teenagers running around in the evenings.

These issues aside, the hostel is in a good location; close to some major attractions and to the subway line. Making it easy to get around the city. The bar was fun and the rooms themselves were good (apart from the tiny shower and tiny toilet problems).

There were always an activity in the hostel that was cool. And location was really close to center.
08.07.2025
The room was very basic and bare, but thoroughly clean. I wish it had a small refrigerator to put some groceries or snacks, but all in all, it does the job as a place to sleep.

I didn’t go to any of the events hosted by the hostel, but there were plenty.

Nice Quiet

Great location, very nice stuff, clean and modern. The only thing thats missing - curtains on the bed.
But even without them I can recommend.
04.06.2025
Friendly staff, the vibes was good and there is a supermarket and some cafes within walking distance. Rooms are clean. The only setback is no towel/ toiletries provided. Please bring your own.
21.05.2025
Arrived later than expected which ultimately was my fault for not knowing the exact location. The staff were very welcoming and couldn't have been nicer to help me. Pamela is a legend and was extremely courteous in explaining how to get to my room and where all the amenities are, I would definitely recommend Generator for anyone looking to stay in Barcelona.
