The first challenge with the Alberg Juvenil Palau is finding it. The streets of the Barri Gotic make navigation difficult. The hostel is located off the left side of the Ramblas, about three quarters of the way down toward the Port. Finding the hostel entails navigating the maze of narrow streets, so make sure you have a good map and know where to go.
The hostel is a basic, clean place on the third floor of a classic Barcelona apartment building. There is no lift so bags must be carried up the stairs. Rooms are generally clean and are available with four, six, or eight beds. Each room has a small balcony that looks out over the street below which can be a nice place to sit and read or chill out. Lockers are available in the dorms and the beds are reasonably comfortable. The bathrooms are clean but afford little privacy.
The hostel has a large kitchen which is available from 6 p.m. until 10 p.m. and these times are quite strictly enforced. There is a television in the common room. The hostel does not have much of a party vibe. A basic breakfast is provided which includes toast, cereal, tea, coffee, and juice. Three computers are available with free internet. Guests are required to be back at the hostel by 3 a.m. or are locked out until 7 a.m. Once you find it, the Alberg Juvenil Palau provides a very central base for exploring Barcelona and the facilities are basic but adequate.
