Is Yeah! Hostel Barcelona a 'party hostel'?

It's highly social and organizes nightly outings to bars and clubs, so you'll definitely find a party if you want one. However, it's not a 'hardcore' party hostel where partying happens 24/7 within the premises. They value guest comfort and quiet hours for sleeping.

Is it suitable for older travelers (e.g., 30s/40s)?
