I liked that were close literally on everything which made it easier for us to go everywhere. We had a balcony and near a supermarket(small shop) thats next to the hotel but i wish a small kettle wouldn’t hurt to add on. The things i didn’t enjoy about our hotel was, it said it included the breakfast but there wasn’t any and the whole thing was so confusing because of the lack of information and there was nobody there to help us with everything. PLUS the extra fees we paid for when he got there which we though it was unnecessary.

I was very unhappy with reception and reservation organization. I arrived at the hotel/hostel in the late evening and was unable to enter. No one from the hotel contacted me upon booking with special instructions or a reservation #. I am currently requesting a refund. Even locating my room the second night was rough because I was not given a room # and had to locate it myself.

Perfectly adequete
Very good location - its a one minute walk from from Gracia Metro station. There are cafes just over the road on the way to the metro where it's nice to have Breakfast, also a little supermarket, some cute shops and an ice cream parlor. Lots of bars in the Gracia area and restaurants too. The hostel was absolutley fine, no complaints as such. However - the check in tim is 1PM. We arrived at 2.30PM and our room wasn't actually ready as it was still being cleaned, we waited for about 15 minutes. This would have been very annoying if we had actually turned up at 1PM, with nowhere to leave our stuff. Also, the reception desk isn't manned throughout the day, even when we checked in at 2.30PM there was no one to help us in. I had to call the number on the door and speak to a man (who knows english luckily) and he gave us a code for the door to open it. The last four digits of your reservation number should be the door code but we booked on expedia so we didn't have that type of code. This wasn't too much of an issue as we checked in ok using the machine. The bathroom is small and beware, the shower curtain needs to be folded under so it doesn't flood the bathroom. It includes a bottle of shower gel/shampoo, so bring toiletries. Keep an eye out when you first arrive at this hostel, we we walked around for 5 minutes unable to find it, it has no sign sticking out and it just a normal door with a cage thing over it and a sign above. But it is where google maps says it is!!

Dingdong Review
While the hostel was clean, it was very small and the subway was far to walk to. Staff was never really around for recommendations on the area. The experience overall was okay but would not stay here again.

Good value for money
We stayed as a couple and were attending a festival during our stay. I don't think we saw one member of staff throughout our stay, but they were efficient in their communication through email if we needed to know anything. Our room was spacious, offered us everything that we needed and the location was great! The only downfall we had was not having access to an iron! Other than that, no complaints!

Great experience at Dingdong. The hostel staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Great location to get to all the main shopping areas and attractions in the city. Close to metro and buses available are a plenty.
