Yomo Hostal BCN Port

We stayed here one night before our cruise and I was very impressed by it. We chose it as it was close to the port and fairly close to the cruise shuttles. Is it as fancy as other establishments? No, the decor in the room was a little tired with a few paint chips, but the rooms were very clean and most importantly the air conditioning worked perfectly (see my other review for the Raval house hotel where we stayed after our cruise for a few nights!). Although a hostel, we booked a double and a twin room which each had private bathrooms and it was great that we had the option to do that. There were also a few nice touches. Each room got a small bottle of water and bag of crisps for the guests. This was an appreciated welcome. Our stay included breakfast which was a bikini (toasted sandwich) and there were several varieties to choose from. There was also tea/coffee, fruit and yoghurt available. Breakfast was lovely. The reception staff were amazing and so helpful. When we mentioned we would be cruising she told us exactly where the shuttle buses went from (a different place than it states online!) but did also tell us what the approximate taxi fare would be and how the taxis in Barcelona worked. We taxied in the end so we didn’t have to lug our cases around. When we realised that we had lost one of the cruise luggage labels, she told me to email them to her and printed them for us etc. so helpful, nothing was too much bother for them.

Excellent friendly service, brilliant location. Clean room with all the facilities you need for a night in Barcelona. Walkable from all the main attractions and handy to get to from the metro station. Room was cool and quiet so had a great nights sleep
