Hostal Operaramblas

Cheap and cheerful, this safe, well-maintained hostal, located almost next to the Opera House (and not to be confused with the Petit Palace chain's more swish Opera Garden Ramblas on the other side of the city's liveliest paseo) is good for those traveling on a tight budget or alone. Be warned, though: This is basic, no-frills accommodations, with notably thin walls (light sleepers might do well to travel with earplugs) and no luxuries. Plus factors are its friendly and obliging staff and upbeat personality. Some rooms are better than others, however, and if you arrive without a reservation, ask to look around first. Otherwise, opt for something at the back with a private bathroom (shower only), as the street outside -- just off La Rambla -- can be noisy until the early hours.
