In reply to Belfi. If it's a personal locker with your own lock, it should be fine. (Assuming the locker itself is in good condition.)

Thanks for the useful information. I booked a hostel for next month in Barcelona and this is my first time. I want to stay there for 9 nights. Do you think it is safe to put my back pack in the locker which their offer while I am visiting the city? please let me know before being too late. thanks again

Oh hostels… by staying in private rooms one can skip several annoyances but lose out on lot of other kind of fun. This is where I learnt how critical ear plugs are. Its a great place to find travel buddies, not to mention occasional hookups. However once I got puked on, and some stuff stolen, but hey that can happen anywhere. 😛

In reply to Anil Polat. Backpacking and hostel/couchsurfing thing is definitely NOT for me though.
