| Review: | DO NOT GO HERE!!! This is the most expensive language school that I came across in my search. Because of this, and their webpage, I assumed this would also be the best school. To begin with, the residence was DISGUSTING. I travel a lot and do not mind staying in hostels and this residence was by far much worse than anything I had seen in my travels. The worst part is that they charge $1200/month to have your own room there. You can get a room in the center of Barcelona in a nice apartment for between 400 and 600 euros. I knew a lot of other people in the residence who were unhappy. I also heard constant complaining in class about the apartments. The biggest problem with this school is that the cancellation guarantee that they have is just crap. Along with many of my friends, I fell down the very dangerous stairs in the residence and hurt myself pretty significantly. I could not even attend classes for almost 2 weeks and I could barely walk. When I started to feel a little better I was still unable to sleep in the residence because they have the most uncomfortable beds I have ever slept in and it was aggravating my injury. While I had been staying in the residence I also had my food stolen from the kitchen and clothes stolen from the laundry area which I reported to the office both times and nothing was done. So considering all of this, when I was in so much pain I was ready to throw the towel in. I went to the office and said I wanted to use my guarantee (which I paid an extra $600 for) to get my money back. I was told to get a Dr's note and to leave the school and that in 3 weeks I would get a refund. I did what they asked and when weeks went by and I heard nothing I returned to the school. Olga in the office denied ever telling me any such thing, pretended she did not speak English all of a sudden, and basically told me I would be getting no money refused to tell me who I could even talk to about this. When I tried to contact Maria in Salamanca, which is who my contact was during the registration process, she would be mysteriously out of the office every time. E-mails consistently went unanswered as well. Basically I was at this school for one month and they kept my money for 4 months even though I had the guarantee and did what they asked. They are liars and crooks and you cannot trust them. They made my experience abroad miserable and it kills me every time I think about the large sum of money they stole from me. There are many less expensive schools in Barcelona and look on Loquo.com for apartments. |

I didn't go to Don Quixote so I can't really comment on that. I heard good things about International House when I was there though. Although I don't think they had the best apartments either. Just for comparison on renting a room or flat. I was able to rent a room in a shared apartment in the Eixample for 235 Euros a month. That was two years ago though and was an exceptional deal. Most of the comparable ones I found were around 300 Euros a month. I agree that loquo.com is a good place to find a flat, but if you're already there it's good to check the notice boards at The University of Barcelona. That's where I found mine. Lots of deals on their notice boards. |

Dear donquijote is the worst: Thank you for that very detailed review of don quijote. I have been trying to decide whether or not to pay a deposit towards a two week class in Barcelona. Your review has helped me make that decision. I've had a heavy feeling in my stomach that was not relieved when I asked for discounts and they were granted to me. It seems a little odd that if this school is doing so well, they would need to bargain with me to get my business. I will search for other Spanish schools in the vicinity. Thanks again! |

I have attended dQ in Barcelona several times a year since 2001 (about 22 weeks in total), initially in their previous location on Gran Via and more recently in their fantastic new facility which opened early in 2009. Without exception I have been very, very happy with dQ. I have consistently received high quality instruction from excellent teachers. I can't comment on the school residence as I have not stayed in the residence. However, I believe the former school building is currently being totally upgraded into a very high quality residence for dQ students. I would give dQ 10 marks out of 10. |

I didn't believe that the review from donquijote is the worst could really be unexaggerated. So I booked. I went to dq barcelona, stayed at the residence and realised how such a situation could occur. DQ is not a SCHOOL - it's a cash cow. The bottom line for them is money, and how obviously and unashamedly this shows is almost sad. The 'director' is a tyrant and acts as though everybody is a student in kindergarten and he is the fat playground bully who barks, has short term memory loss and acuses you of his errors, and tells you to "speak spanish" when you demand to have your rights as a customer, because he's obviously going to win every argument in spanish. He is incredibly rude, even though you are essentially a CUSTOMER yet he will treat you like a STUDENT when it is convenient for his "class planning" (as some classes are held until 7pm). This is absolutely unacceptable. Just because he is the "director" of his "school" doesn't mean anything to a customer. The customer is still always paying for something. And a bait-&-switch is what DQ seem to manage to pull on plenty of things. The staff in "administration" will always tell you that what ever problem or query you have at that time, is not what THEY deal with, you will need to ask moron number 2 at the admin desk who will be back in another 20 minutes/2 hours/day. This was such a bad experience for what was supposed to be a nice semi-holiday in Barcelona. If people wanted to be treated like children, they would not go to a place promoted like DQ Barcelona is promoted. The course itself - I've done better language courses elsewhere. Although the teachers are nice, some were obviously underqualified and couldn't teach/explain the language well. But then some were great. So it's just luck which ones you get. I don't believe they have very strict curriculums and so the material you cover is very much based on how your teacher teaches. And different teachers teach the same course levels - so there is a lack of consistency between classes in the same level. As a cash cow, DQ's lack of care whether or not you actually learn anything is apparent as there are no weekly/fortnightly tests. So in this respect, you are treated not as a Student but more like a customer. The residence was an absolute dump. The beds are terrible to sleep on. You can hear the springs screeching outrageously from any small movement. The bathrooms are either tiny or gigantic - but all tacky. The cleaning lady is atrocious. She's so rude and constantly suspicious of students leaving garbage in the bins, leaving plates in the dishwasher, 'stealing' her brooms, buckets. And the kitchen is disgustingly old. The lift is indefinately out of order. There are cockroaches in the 'dining' area. The vending machines are always breaking down after you put money in (and when you ask for this back at the school, they make it such a big issue that in the end you just cannot be bothered). The 24hr security at the residence which is advertised is actually only 24 hrs on weekends. All in all, the DQ-Barcelona experience made my experience in Spain unpleasant because I felt like what I had paid for was an institution (complete, with tyrant installed)to make me feel ripped off and hopelessly unable to exercise my rights as a customer due to their "terms and conditions", in which all the fine print really must be read before you consider booking. Don't be fooled by the facebook forums with 2 "opinions" of the school which are positive, as the DQ admin have obviously deleted all the bad reviews. Don't go here. Don't waste your money. There must be better schools who treat their students/customers with more respect or at least more consistency so you can have the benefits of at least being treated as a 'student' OR 'customer' and not only have to deal with the negative aspects of being either. |

yes, the residence is disgusting, the beds terrible, curtains askew and stains on the walls. With all that they five you a sheet with many rules including a large amount to change rooms. Yes, the cleaning lady is suspicious and makes you feel uncomfortable. The worst thing is that they are remodeling the floors above the levels of the current residence so it's not a healthy atmosphere. I left after the first week, paid for two and they won't refund my money, even though I paid for a "cancellation guarantee". They're crooks, basically. At the school, some are good teachers, but I had one who seemed to have it in for Americans and was rude to me and especially angry when I corrected him by telling him that there is a subjunctive in English. He insisted there isn't and allowed two other students to yell at me that there isn't. Just a bad experience all the way around - also the director made anti american remarks about us not sitting down to dinner like they do. Most of us do sit down to a family dinner every night however. He thought he got our culture because he has been to McDonalds. No CD for the student workbook which relies on an audio portion. Was told by the director that any bookstore in Barcelona would have it. Went to six. None of them had the book or the CD. What kind of way to run a school is that? They should be reported. |

I have studied at don Quijote Barcelona on various ocasions and every time the experience has been excellent. The teaching methods are unique and the high quality materials they use are very efficient. The teachers and staff have always been friendly and doing everything possible to aid your stay and so that you feel confortable during your stay in Barcelona. The facitlites the school hasd to offer are like no other school I have ever visited in Spain. They have many excursions and activities to offer to all students and this also makes an important part of the learning curve that you will experience studying with don Quijote. I would recommend any one of the don Quijote schools to students who really want to experience an excellent way of learning Spanish. My Spanish has improved and I have made so many friends that were also at the school and also with the members of staff, A big Thank you DON QUIJOTE! |

I was nervous of being far from home and not knowing the language, but when I arrived at my destinations, my course and my accommodation were fine so I was able to relax a bit. The teachers treated us like friends and had a way of teaching grammar and culture in a way that never bored me. I found that the minor issues I had I was able to tell my teachers about it or the admnistration office and they always came through in fixing the issue, and depending on its complexity, sometimes within 24 hours’s time. All in all, I can say I had a good experience with them and will definitely repeat! |

Hello, I've read all your comments and I would like to share my experience since I do not agree with all of them. I stayed for 4 weeks in Don Quijote Barcelona last summer (July. Durtig my first week I took a room in a 2* hotel in the center (6 nights) and I was charged 60 euros/night without breakfast. The quality of the hotel was unacceptable so I was really scared about my next accomodation since It costed me 34 euros/night so it would mean half of the quality of that hotel. I was very happy in the residence when comparing quality/price relationship (for that price it would not be possibe to find something better in Barcelona). The negative point was that the residence was under construction and that was terrible but I received a 20% of discount becuase of that, so at the end, it was not so bad and the construction was done during the time I was attending lessons, so it was a good bussiness. Teachers were lovely and the school staff helped me to change my lessons into the morning schedule: bad point, I had to queue threre so I am not sure If I would queue again for help. |

I spent 2 months in Barcelona at the don Quijote school and I liked it a lot. I got to know many people from all over the world. My flatmates were friendly and nice and I had no problems there. The school is a huge building and everything is very modern. The teachers are very nice and became friends as well. Furthermore Barcelona is a beautiful city where you can enjoy the time before/after lessons. I liked it being there for 2 months and I want to do that again, maybe next year... |
| Comment by: Francesca From: Bandini November 17th, 2009 |
I've been studying in Don Quijote Barcelona for 2 years now, in summer time and it's always an absolutely great experience! Teachers are really professional, classes are small and personalized. Then I always meet so many students from all over the world...it's a unique experience! I usually stay in the residence in the Gran Via last summer was under construction...Even if they give you a discount to stay there now, I preferred to change and I stayed in a residence not too far from the school. I cannot complain, it was clean and food was ok! I know they are building a new residence for don quijote students, an hotel or something like that...I'm really looking forward to see it finished! |

My personal experience with this Barcelona school was in the summer of 2008. I was undecided between the Valencia school and the Barcelona one because both cities are on the coast, but chose Barcelona in the end because of an offer they had going on. Overall, I had the time of my life the 2 (short!) weeks I was there and never had a problem of any sort. Lucky? |
| Comment by: Johann van de Boer From: Utrcht, Nederlands November 19th, 2009 |
I spent 12 weeks at the don Quixote residence in Barcelona since april 2009. The course and teacher were great. I recieved a discount because of the remodelation of the building and I had no problem at all As i was at the sschool while working. |

I have studied at the don QUijote school recently and I found it a great experience. The residence is a little shabby but as there are renovating this it will be fantastic. The buildings itself is amazing and i really want to come back to see it finished.The discount that I received for the residence helped me to pay for extra gifts to bring home. All in all I had a pefect stay! |
| Comment by: Ana From: Holland December 10th, 2009 |
I studied at speakeasy bcn in Barcelona - the course is great and the teachers really support you as a student to do your best and get the most from the lessons. The admin team is respectful and fun - very very good experience and I learned Spanish! |
| Comment by: Isabel From: San Francisco, US February 18th, 2010 |
I rented a flat in Barcelona for me and my cat; between rent and food, I didn't do much better than the in-house students, but I didn't have the sewage smell and didn't have to share facilities. My teachers were excellent, but other teachers were terrible. Both my teachers were hired away (in one case by a Spanish embassy abroadD!) right around the time I left, so I lucked out. I knew a couple of people who had no luck getting refunds, so save your money -- don't buy the insurance, and keep in mind that it's a lot easier to extend your education there than it is to get a refund; book with that in mind. dQ is certainly a cash cow, but it's also a job for teachers on the make; definitely a matter of luck. I'm eternally grateful to my teachers. |

I spent one week at DQ in Barcelona this past December and had the time of my life! Met people from all over the world, loved the city, enjoyed the classes and significantly improved my Spanish. The only problem was the accommodation. My place was a dump the day I got there, but I complained and they moved me to a a really nice apartment ( maybe I was lucky), most people did not like their place. The second place I stayed at did not have hot water for a few days, but was lovely. They also told me that I would live with women, when I showed up I was with two guys, but were nice, but was able to move. But I still had the time of my life and I am thinking about going back maybe to Granada, if anyone knows about their accommodations there, let me know. |

I'm CURRENTLY at DQ for one year. I've only been here for a little over 2 weeks but, felt I should write a review. I've listed the Pro's and cons below. But, first, I need to give some background. I'm 42 but, really young acting. Everyone here thinks I'm early 30's. I hang with all the students like I was in my 20's. I'm living in the residence for the 1st month and looking forward to getting my own flat in the city. OK, I've lived and traveled all over the world, love to go out, I'm single, gay and the life of the party type. Here's the deal from my perspective. The residence is under some MAJOR reconstruction. I feel like I'm in some 3rd world hotel or hostel. It's HORRIBLE. Everyone complains about it. I actually overheard my neighbor, a new girl, crying her eyes out to her father on the phone her first day. The noise is unbelievable during the day. If you end up with afternoon classes, you are never going to get enough sleep. People here go out on the town every night of the week until late. (Back at the residence between 5am - 7am, which is normal for Barcelona) When you are ready to sleep, the jackhammers, ratchet guns and other equipment starts up. The place is a stye. I dread my shower which is broken every day. Only your room has A/C and that's only if your's actually works. The rest of the place is boiling hot day and night with high humidity. The kitchen is disgusting and the fridge barely works. The washing machines and dryers are falling apart and a wash/dry will take you about 5 hours for a small load. For the price you pay for the residence you can get a TOP-OF-THE-LINE apartment in the city. I got a 3BR/2BA with washer/dryer/dishwasher/AirCond., etc in the heart of the best part of the Eixample for 1145/euros a month and that's considered way overkill for prices here. Moving in in 2 weeks!!! One student left his residence after a day and moved into a 4 star hotel because it was so much nicer and cheaper. Yes, the cleaning lady is really suspicious, never nice and always looks pissed off. The school will ignore your problems, doesn't care about what goes on in the residence. Get your own place, don't move into the residence. There are a few old PC's you can use and WiFi in the steaming hot common area. Only about 2 rooms can connect via WiFi. the residence is THE SOCIAL HUB of the school though. A lot of students come over around 10 or 11pm everynight to meet up, drink and then go out to the bars at midnight or the clubs around 2:30AM. No one follows the no drinking rule here. It's very lax. Even 16yo's go to the discos here and drink. As for the school, I like it a lot. I've had some amazing teachers and some crappy ones. It's a toss. The school is really nice, though the student computers suck. I say go to DQ but, don't stay in the residence. So, here are my pro's and cons for everything below.... Pro's -School provides a social and cultural event every day of the week. It's amazing. You get invited to the best discos in town for free and on the guest list. They have awesome tours of towns, museums, etc everyday. Some are free and some cost. -Residence is the social hub. Make friends and go there at night to meet up -go to the discos with schoolmates even if you don't drink. you'll make more friends. -some great teachers...especially Carolina. She's amazing -location of residence is great. -school is easy to get to with transportation. -Taxis are plentiful and really cheap. -Amazing city and architecture. -30 minute walk to school is great. Most students walk it. chance to explore the neighborhoods and exercise -Great Gay district is between residence and school -major attractions are near the residence Cons -Residence is WAY overpriced even with a 50% discount. -Residence is so outdated, dirty and unbelievable amount of noise and construction -No A/C in common areas -Washer/dryers are really bad -kitchen would be condemned in the U.S. -School misleads students on conditions of residence. (heard this from a lot of other students too) -Admin Staff is either rude, unresponsive and doesn't care. (Though, this is typical Spanish behaviour. There is almost no sense of customer service in any business establishment here). Just wait until you go food shopping or try to enquire about a Spanish cell phone. HA!!! You're in for a treat) -Spain is not cheap. I come from the SF Bay Area, one of the most expensive places in the U.S. At a bar/disco expect to pay about $10-15 per drink, $6-$12 for a beer. This is in dollars, not euros. eating out is expensive. you can find some bargains. Housing is cheaper than SF. -Exchange rate with the dollar is horrible. Expect that you'll lose about 25%+ in value just in the Exchange rate. My final conclusion...go with an open mind that you will be challenged and meet some great people. DQ is great for learning but, stay away from the residence. Also, I agree with other reviews. It's about money for them. The Director and the woman Olga who oversees the residence don't really seem to give a crap about you. Hopefully you'll get a great profesora like Carolina. :-) |

Believe, Don quijote is the worst school ever. Expensive and worthless. f you want a fast education, you should go to Enforex and Don Quijote, the Burger King of education. They are expensive, bad and useless, but they have one of the best corporate policy I have seen. They work with travel agencies, they pay a lot of money with the condition that the agency only can show info about Enforex and Don Quijote, but there is a trick: Enforex and Don Quijote are the same academy. The students think they can choose between two offers, but in fact is the same and in both cases is a bad offer. |

Hi...I plan to study at DQ Barcelona for 9 months starting in the next two months. Given the above reviews, it appears that I should not live in the residence (maybe even the new 4-star one scheduled to open April 2011). Mark (or anyone else willing to correspond) if you do not mind, could you e-mail me privately so we can discuss DQ. Looks like we will overlap for a few months! :) Given the length of my stay, I think I may opt for the private apt or 4-star hotel. Would like to get your thoughts before I pay. I was promised a 10% discount if I pay by tomorrow. You can e-mail me at kammiami@gmail.com |

Hey Guys! I'm in a similar situation to you Kam, i'm looking to study at DQ Barcelona starting next May. I was planning on staying in the student residence, but on reading these reviews i'm starting to have second thoughts! Any advice on good places to perhaps find a private apartment would be appreciated, just any advice about your experiences in Barcelona in general to be honest! You can email me at mahaliajuliana@live.co.uk Hope to hear from you soon! Mahalia |

WOW!!!! Right about now I am sooo thankful for the internet! I, as Kam, Mahalia & Mauricio also plan to attend Dq for 8 wks starting in the end of August. If anyone could give me any information on living with one of the family's? If it's worth it? Any potential problems or past experiences? I am fluent in spanish and would like to perfect it and of course meet some new people. Any heads up or further details on your experience would be greatly appreciated! Cheers! Mizzev@hotmail.com |

Hello All, I'll be at don Quijote in Valencia from the 4th of April and I'll be doing a hotel internship from May (in Cordoba, Andalucia). Please can people tell me about accommodation in the apartments in Valencia, and in Adalucia? Also, will anyone be in Valencia at the same time? |
| Comment by: Karine From: Paris February 24th, 2011 |
well guys my last tipp is that the searching here is kind of hard and needs pacience :) my advice is to search an international enviroment if it is a shared appartment where people from other countries are living too. last but not least, personally when I came here, I have studied in Olé Languages, where the relation between price and quality is really fair. Young and very easy-going professors, lots of young people and great classes of Spanish. do not hesitate to contact me in case you need anything additional Good luck to all y bienvenidos en Barcelona! |
| Comment by: Karine From: Barcelona, Spain February 24th, 2011 |
well I was trying to see what was the thing that didn´t let me to announce my message I will try once more with the first part of my text,,, Hello to all! first of all I would like to express my sympathy for those who had such a bad experience in a city that only fun can offer, it´s a pity that such an expensive school ends up giving bad services and turning like that a great experience to a nightmare. Really hope that you can come again and enjoy as you should. My name is Karine, I come from France but I am living in Barcelona the last three years, I am sending you some web pages where you can search shared or private appartments in Barcelona, Wishing luck to all! In Barcelona, renting a whole appartment is too expensive, needs two months deposit in advance and they usually ask for a laboral contract too. Most of the people especially those who are coming for a short-term prefer to share an appartment. Usually the rent of a room difers from 240-500€ with costs (electricity, water, internet) included - do not forget to ask about those too-. Loquo is one of the most famous webs here, everybody can announce whatever he wants and that´s why you have too be a little bit carefull and suspicious when something looks strange, there is an english version too but not so updated: loquo.com/en_us Craiglist too, is a good idea, you can find several announcements the most of them in english: barcelona.en.craigslist.es/ Lots of friends who are studying here in masters, have found shared appartments in ebay (unfortunately I see that most of announcements are in Spanish. •shared appartments: anuncios.ebay.es/inmobiliaria/barcelona/compartir/ •private apparments rent: anuncios.ebay.es/inmobiliaria/barcelona/alquiler/ then for the people who can already understand some Spanish: pisocompartido.com/ where you have to create an account user and like that you get to know your roomates from before casas.trovit.es/ which is a search mashine of many web sites that have rent anouncements |

I am also planning to go to DQ in August but now i'm rethinking it. Does anybody have any other options. I like what ive read about idioms |
| Comment by: KAM From: Miami, FL May 21st, 2011 |
Hi, I have studied at dQ Barcelona for 2 months. Below is my advice on different issues that may be of concern for those researching the school: 1. Cost -- always ask for discounts even though you are staying less than longterm. I have always had luck with just asking for a discount. I have gotten between 10 - 20% off quoted prices. 2. Residence -- do NOT stay there: overpriced and utter dump. Check loquo.com or if you do not have much of a budget aspasios.com. If possible, it is always best to look at the place in advance or have a friend look. Apartments here do not normally compare to the US. A lot of "usual" conveniences are not available or work as expected such as central a/c or washer AND dryer. You need to really think of your criteria and make sure the apartment has them or most of them. 3. Teachers -- it is a luck of the draw. There are some really great teachers and some really crappy ones. 4. Attitude -- definitely a "cash cow" and you should pay for shorter periods and then keep extending THROUGH your contact that registered you for the course NOT through the school (and remember to keep asking for discounts!!). For example, if you plan on being there for 4 months, I would pay only one month at a time. That way they would be more catering to your needs and concerns. Once they have your money they do not treat you well and are very inflexible to make any changes. It is actually extremely ridiculous! I have heard so many horror stories with the way students are treated by the school staff (excluding the teachers -- they are normally very friendly). Alternatives -- I do not think I have heard of any really better alternative in terms of education. Guarantee -- do NOT get it. Absolute waste of money with virtually no results and/or lots of frustration. Conclusion -- all in all I think you could enjoy bcn as it is a fun and beautiful city. You can improve your Spanish at dQ bcn but you need to be smart given the cautions outlined above. I really believe the trick is to not pay for everything upfront. Keep the bargaining power by paying in increments. I know sometimes this is unfortunately not possible, such as if you have to get a visa depending on the visa requirements. Hope this helps! |
