INOUT Hostel Barcelona
Very affordable. Breakfast was great at a very affordable price. Clean and comfortable place. It’ll be better if they can provided free shuttle from the station going to the resort. The distance is no problem but then it’s an uphill way that made it hard for us with luggages.
