Forum Tarragona

Although check-in was an automated system, there was a pleasant young lady in the work area who gave us our room key. We adored the location overlooking the square (may not suit everyone) with its many restaurants and busy life, Our double room had everything we needed and a mini balcony. Public underground parking was just opposite and we were just a few minutes from the sea front. In the "work" area we enjoyed free coffees and chatted with several interesting guests on the comfy chairs. For a hostel, we were pleasantly surprised. The town was kept clean.

Apart from many negative experiences described in the comments, I have had a marvelous stay in this hostel. Checking in was smooth and easy, the room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The AC is brand new. The bathroom is small, but at least you don't share it with anyone, so it really doesn't matter. Free coffee was a big plus, and to say the least - I am extremely satisfied with everything.

Fantastic location right on main plaza with "human towers" Fiesta happening out front. Despite that our room *non balcony, was quiet. Good ac, bedaide lights and table Room small but functional.

Great location, bed was good, room got cleaned daily and in general the room was clean.

Brilliant base: central, great wifi, balcony, spotlessly clean; once checked in you can come and go. Note - I love the bustle into the night of the Placa but if you're a light sleeper you may prefer an inside room without balcony.
