What we really liked about this place was the location, right off Las Ramblas in the Gothic quarter so you are in the heart of the city. We stepped out the door and felt like we were in the middle of life in Barcelona.
Pension Fernando also has a very pension/hostal like feel rather than simply a hostel. This means you get a real mix of people staying. There are dorm rooms and you can actually book out the entire room so if you have a group of friends or family it is ideal. We noticed there were people that had done this. Alternatively they have private rooms. These rooms are comfortable with good beds and bathrooms.
The reception area does not really encourage interaction, although the staff are friendly. There is a nice little breakfast room with a television where you can sit and meet and talk to other people. It was nice to know we could come back and hang out there if it got cold outside in winter and still meet and talk to people.
We would definitely recommend this place as both clean and comfortable.
