This hostal was basic, clean, and central.  The bed was comfortable, the hot water in the shower was good, the towels were fluffy and replaced fresh each day, and the front desk staff were really welcoming.  Despite being really central it was quiet enough for sleep, although we could hear a snorer from another room. When we first arrived and pushed the intercom button it took a couple of goes to work out that the door that opened was set into the big door but that was a minor problem!  Having a lift to go up to the first floor with luggage was great. 

Basic means no hair dryer, no chair, no wardrobe, no iron, no fridge, etc - it really is a bed, bedside tables and a small drawer unit with a blanket stored, but as a safe clean place to sleep it worked.  We liked having reception there 24 hours, and leaving our key with them for safety. The staff were delightfully friendly.

Central, safe and clean- but basic.

We could not have been more impressed, or more pleasantly surprised. This accommodation was the best value for money and please remember it is in the old town, so it has old town charm. 

Beautifully renovated, immaculately clean, very comfortable beds and pillows, white, crisp, clean sheets, gorgeous and traditional tiled floors, stunning original wooden doors and window screens, and spotless bathrooms (so what if you have to share, just lock the door)

Wifi and TV excellent, large sink and big mirror in the room and 24 hour friendly and helpful desk service. 

We found it confusing to locate once we were on  the first floor, but once we tried the buzzer we were immediately let in. 

The old world charm of the lobby, stunning tile work and front door blew us away. 

You could not get a better location, so don’t be put off by the whinging, negative reviews or star rating. Live a little people! 

5*****

Thank you to the staff!

Hidden Treasure

I could not ask for a better rotating staff than the guys that switched off to keep Hostal Lausanne open and available for 24 hours each day. Lausanne is just a block away from the tourist-charged Ramblas, as well as the lively Plaza Catalunya. The rooms are private, and at my end of the hall, there were two bathrooms with more-than-decent showers. Old Town, aka the Gothic Quarter, is just outside, as well as impromptu entertainment. Oh look -- there's an "Elvis"; there's some acrobats; there's a guitarist and a sax player. There are shops and any number of magnificent churchs. You won't be bored there. In fact, you won't be bored anyplace in Barcelona! And Lausanne is right in the middle of it all.

A Good Place to Stay in Old Town

A cute and quirky hotel in a great location in Barcelona.  Very near the Gothic Quarter, Metro,Las Ramblas and Plaça de Catalunya.  My room was basic, but clean and tidy.  The staff were pleasant and helpful.  It's not 5 star, but a good base for sightseeing activities.

Fantastic location!

This one floor Hostal is well localized, just 2 minutes walking from Las Ramblas (main avenue in Barcelona). A double room with two beds was used by my mom and me. The bathrooms are shared with more rooms, but it is not a huge place so everything was as described. Two things upset me about the place: the room was cleaned but over the wardrobe was dusty and my mom noticed that her suitcase was open and someone took a look in her things. Nothing missing, but we were afraid of something. Good points, they have a hair dryer if necessary and the staff was welcome and friendly.

Simple but good

Location is great and Staff is fine. but you feel as if you were in a prison cell.
it was not pleasant as the bed and room were very small and not clean at all.
I do not recommend unless you are stuck

Hostal Lausanne Barcln experience

Needed a room very last minute in Barcelona during NY eve and this was one of the few places available and affordable when booking this on a website. We had a private room (not bathroom though)  but it was so basic and small we called it the prison cell. In general it was at least clean, but that is all I can say, I certainly did not want to spend one minute in this place longer then necessary. What we paid for this was really a rip off but as mentioned busy period. The receptionist that checked us in was really nice and helpful but the guy working on new years eve was appalling. We rang the door for 5 minutes but nobody opened, we had to ring by phone to basically get in. And once we were in, the place reeked of pot/marihuana and the receptionist was clearly stoned. If it wasn't for the location I would never have staid here...

The only good thing is the location and the receptionist that checked us in...

What a horrible hotel. As you're walking in it looks nice, then you get to the smelly, unclean prison cell rooms. Unbearably uncomfortable, with rude grumpy staff. Shared bathrooms are vile too. Avoid.
