Hostelworld says

Onefam Paralelo opened in 2011 and has received very high ratings from our reviewers ever since. Our guests say the ?cool, friendly and family-like vibe is set by the owner himself?, with attentive, friendly staff and clean, new and comfortable beds. It?s located near Paral?lel metro station, ?super close and convenient to the centre of Barcelona?, within walking distance of Pla?a d?Espanya, La Rambla, Pla?a Reial and more. We like their free nightly dinners, made by the staff and designed to create a communal family atmosphere.

What a lovely hostel. It was the perfect size, small so it’s intimate but still with lots going on. The highlight is all the activities they have, every day is a day activity, dinner, bar and then club. At each event the sister hostels also meet up so there’s lots of social connection and opportunity to meet people. The hostel was also clean and the bunk beds were sturdy, didn’t sway and had charger stations at each bed. Super nice hostel.

Onefam Paralelo says

What makes us special is that our place is like a house. We're usually able to remember everybody's name. We help our guests plan their days here in Barcelona from their point of view - for instance, we'd send an architect on a 'modern architectural route' - whatever you need, we try to make it happen...to a certain point, anyway. Personally, I like to send people to a very unusual but definitely local place - an anti-bomb hangar very close to our hostel, only visitable on weekends; also San Antonio market, where the locals go shopping. We've got the best horchata place behind us, the oldest 'bodega' in town is around the corner and the oldest bar around, called Mersella, is just 500m from us. Our perfect guest is a solo traveller or a couple of friends, but of course everybody has a good time down here. In the morning we have a free walking tour; we offer several different attractions like renting a longboard or rollerblades and in the evening we usually have a PPA - personal party assistant - coming around to show you some local parties.
