Very Good

Hostel is clean and well located. Stuff is nice and had no issue during check in. Couple of issues: They did not make my bed. They just put the folded sheets and I had to make my bed which was interesting for me. I am not sure if hostels in Europe this is the common approach.
And secondly the door in the room is extremely loud when closing down. There was no stopper or anything thus I woke up whenever someone leaves the room. Only water is provided, no coffee, tea etc.
This hostel needs to level up for real. No blug near the bed only the old usb. Who uses old usb anymore?
The beds are so exposed. Other hostels have curtains for each bed.
They don't offer locks and towels which is acceptable but no hair dryer in the shower??? How the hell should I dry my hair??
The bed sheets have some stains.
When I got to reception the girl was like can you do the self check-in I'm busy lol
The staff were shocked when I asked for the upper bed. They were like woowww people normally ask for the bottom bed. Ok I'm different is there any problem?
They made me feel like the change is impossible and the system does not let them change the beds and if I want I could cancel my reservation.
I was going to cancel and they were like ok we'll change for you but last time.
I didn't use the kitchen but it seemed well equiped and clean.
This was a lovely hostel for the price. It was filled with backpackers on the Camino so the common spaces for food and extra outlets were always full. Beds were decently comfortable but without fans or curtains. Internet was VERY spotty, I had hopes of working there but was not able to. Location is great, you are a few minutes walk from the Guggenheim and surrounded by bars, restaurants and cafe. There is a bus that takes you directly from the airport to around 5 minutes away from the hostel.
For its Privileged Location, for you Kind Staff, Easy Auto Check-in on Kiosko, Very Nice Place.
When I gonna to visit Bilbao again, Poshtel will be my first option. 🔝 Recommended.
They’ve own Caffe.
Excellent private room in this well-kept and modern hostel. Restaurant is adjacent to the lobby, so affordable meal options are easy. Very accommodating staff. Centrally located. The biggest issue was the blinking fire alarm, but that's not really an issue.
Check-in after 00:00 is tricky. No personnel at reception during the night shift. You have to self check-in using the machine, which is not very user friendly. I've spent 15 minutes dealing with all paperwork. In general - OK and clean.
I can tell you everything is perfect, only one note which is: it is cold inside the rooms! Please turn on the heater

Arrived late at night and someone else was in my bed. Had to wait in the lobby for the few hours I was planning to be there. Rooms are hot despite A/C advertised. Beds and bunks not comfortable.
Entry to hostel by code sent to my email, check in at the machine inside, passport scanned, room card issued, all in a breeze. Bed was comfortable and clean, shower not as hot as I prefer. Kettle, microwave and fridge, but no coffee nor tea bags.
The cafe staff next to the hostel were rude, food was being carried in the kitchen, the bottom bunk bed was too low and uncomfortable, and the bench in the common area was old and needed to be repaired.

Disliked: Staff & service
Staff wasn't nice, and some of the guest were rude and sketchy. Not a place were you want to stay unles you are traveling in a big group and can reserve a room for your party. Avoid if possible.
The place is lovely as far as the shared spaces--really tastefully decorated. The rooms are extremely clean. The bedding, etc., is in excellent condition. The clerks, etc., are friendly and helpful. I'm not sure why there aren't more guests--or there weren't when I was there. I will say this-- it was very cold to sit around and read or go online or do anything. I put on all my warm clothes and still couldn't keep warm.
Everything great.
Only small thing to mention:
The top bed of the bunker beds are so low that it is almost impossible to sit on the lower bed without hitting your head. Putting on my shoes made me hit my head frequently.
