Loved by Hostal Rio De Castro guests
"The metro was right across the street and it was easy to get around from the property."
"The area around it is a little more urban and it looks kinda sketchy on the outside, but the inside is fantastic for the price !"
"First of all, it was my first time traveling to Barcelona and transporting to the hostel from Airport was very easy because of the central location of the hostel."
