Gaudi Youth Hostel is reasonably near the center of everything at a great price compared to those around it. Gaudi Youth Hostal is not spic-and-span clean, but it suffices. The staff there is exceptionally helpful. There are two large dorm rooms at opposite ends of this apartment building that share a men's and women's bathroom/showers. Breakfast is not provided and there is no kitchen. Sheets are extra. Gaudi doesn't provide the most social atmosphere, as they only have one small common room, but they do direct hostellers to good bars to meet other travellors or locals.
This hostel is very easy to find because it sits right next to the metro station. If you arrive by train, take the metro to Catalunya stop (line-3) which is two minutes from the hostel, or change to line-1 and one stop to Urquinaona, in front of the hostel. If you arrive by plane: from Prat-Airport you can take the Aerobus (Bus) or the train to Catalunya Stop (Catalunya square), it runs every 15 minutes and it takes about 30 minutes to get Placa de Catalunya which is 3 minutes walking to the hostel. From Ryanair airport (Girona): the bus stops in Estació del Nord (Main Bus Station). Take there the metro (Arc del Triomf stop, line-1), 2 stops to Urquinaona station. The same way if you come by bus.
Once there, you have to look closely on the building ringer for the Gaudi sign next to the buzzer. But you can arrive at anytime; they have 24 hour reception.
