I'm not sure if I was scammed or just got incredibly unlucky.

A couple of days before my stay, I realized that I'd be getting in later than the usual check-in time. I reached out to the property via Hotels.com, but I never got a response. At this point, I thought it was my screw-up. I booked another hotel for my first night in Barcelona, got ready to travel, and I moved on.

The day after that first night, I tried to go to the property during their regular check-in hours. No one buzzed me into the property, so I called and Whatsapp messaged. No response.

Eventually, someone else let me into the building, and I went to the front door of the B&B. I knocked and rang the bell... and no one answered. Again, this was during their stated check-in hours, when the reception was supposed to be staffed.

It's now been about a week since my stay was supposed to be, and I've never gotten a response. I wasted an hour waiting to be let in to an apparently abandoned B&B, and then I had to scramble to find accommodations for the remainder of my time in Barcelona.

I've never had a worse experience with a hotel. I've never been ghosted by a hotel before. Again, maybe I just got unlucky, but even so, I must say to avoid this hotel.

The main floor front entrance to the property was filled with construction materials and smelled bad. Luggage had to be carried up a flight of stairs to an elevator. The Boutique 8 B & B hotel itself was lovely, quiet and clean. However, the room was not ready when I arrived shortly after check-in time. I waited an hour for the host to clean the room before I could settle in after a day of travel. That was the last time I saw anyone who wasn’t a guest. There was no breakfast provided, and the coffee maker in the shared kitchen was jammed. It is in a safe and convenient location but it is not a B & B.

The biggest problem was the lack of staff availability. On check in, Tatiana was not immediately available and by all counts, there seemed to be no one else working at the property. Throughout my 4-night stay, I saw her only one other time, despite posted reception hours of at least 12:00-19:00 every day. There was simply no one at the property. Also, despite it being advertised as a B&B, there is no breakfast offered. Phone calls and emails would go unanswered both before my stay and during, when Expedia tried contacting the property to discuss a refund.

The staff was late to arrive for the available check in time, check in starts at 3pm, but she arrived late at 3:30. Therefore, made me miss my booked tour I had planned for the afternoon. Then issues with the key cards, which was mentioned in previous reviews, but figured it would be solved.

As previous reviews state, do not expect breakfast. Rooms were clean and well furnished (although we did wait an hour after we arrived for our room). Our A/C wasn’t working and the owner had no sense of urgency to fix or offer up an alternative. Only window in the room was in the bathroom and did not offer any sort of relief from the heat. We sourced a fan on Facebook marketplace at 10pm and it went and picked it up. Had we not had that, the sleeping conditions would have not been bearable. We left the fan behind for any other travellers that experience the same condition - so ask for it!
Good location.

Pros:
Bedroom: The room was very clean and well cared for. We appreciated the shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and lotion provided. The linens were clean and in good condition. The bed was comfortable. The provided water and glasses was also appreciated. There is ample closet space to hang your clothes. The area was quiet.
Common area: The water and nespresso machine with cups/mugs was great. There is a refrigerator/freezer for common use. The tables and chairs were in good condition. The couches were comfortable.
Check in: check in was smooth; our room keys worked without issue. Check out was also smooth. The proprietor is friendly. We arrived before the room was ready, so she held our luggage for us while we explored the area. The luggage is held in the common area.

Cons:
The building and B&B can only be accessed by being buzzed in by the proprietor. If you arrive earlier than 1200, there is no one to let you in. There are 5-6 steps that must be taken to reach the lift. There is a chair lift for these steps, but it was broken when we were there last week.
Although it is titled \"B&B\" there is no provided breakfast. We walked a few blocks down and got a latte and croissant. The proprietor is only on the property from 1200-1900. The proprietor also cleans and prepares the rooms, so our room was not ready until 3:20pm.

Overall, we would stay here again. We would just choose to arrive later in the day.

The room was clean and although small was well set up. Communication is lacking. Tried half a dozen times to ring beforehand to see if I could store my suitcase early (and also emailed) with no response. Ended up storing my suitcase at the luggage section at the railway station and packing an overnight bag as I had to walk around for 3 hours before I could check in. I also emailed with no response (until day after I had left).
When I mentioned it she said she was too busy cleaning the rooms by herself and doesn’t have time to check messages. When I did arrive at 3pm it is obscurely located on the second floor with an unappealing entrance which left me wondering if I had the right place. The room wasn’t ready and I could wait hslf an hour or leave my overnight bag. I had a coffee and waited but after half an hour decided to leave my bag and continue sightseeing. Said I could leave my bags there after checkout if needed but was seeking this information beforehand. Obviously needs more help -at the least to check messages and emails.
It is still called a B&B but hasn’t had breakfast available for several years. This needs to be changed as misleading.

When i asked the owner she said no laundry like there never was. I specifically chose this place for this amenity and thought that with breakfast, the price although a bit high was ok considering. location wise close to metro. Safe neighbourhood and quiet. Close to Casa Batllo and Pedrera - walking distance.

The property is located on 1st floor (European, equivalent to 2nd floor in the US), so check in is in the property only by owner, as there is no reception on entrance, so when we arrived early, we had to wait until the owner showed up in the afternoon.
The property is clean, modern, conveniently located, and should be clear that there is no breakfast in this B&B. The most problematic thing about this property is that there is a very definite limited time in which you can get any help from the owner. One time, due to my own carelessness, I had accidentally forgotten to take the key and locked myself out of my room in the evening, and attempts at contacting the owner through email, phone calls, Whatsapp yielded no response. (owner left the Whatsapp number claiming she can be contacted). We had to sleep on the sofa in the common area that night. She does not come in until noon the next day, and owner did no apologize and said that \"at least you have experienced sleeping on the sofa\". She also admitted that she admitted getting the messages but she said her phone was \"blocked\", which we did not believe at all. Do not expect any kind of help besides 12 noon to about 7 PM from this owner. Traveling in a foreign country, I believe this type of service is not acceptable, so I cannot recommend this property.

Amazing stay at The 8

My wife and I arrived to Barcelona, Spain early Tuesday morning. We booked our room here on Hotels.com with The 8, and then took a Taxi from the airport to the resort. Cost was about $27 Euro. Upon arrial we were a bit confused on where to go, but was delighted with the secured entry and the friendly guests. After making our way to the Lobby we were greated by the Owner/Operator who was more than accomodating being that it was only 10am and she led us to our room. The feeling the moment you step into the Lobby is a mix if modern contemporary meets the Gothic district which was amazing. Everything was clean, well laid out and worked perfectly.

Thank you so much for the hospitality and the clean resort. If we are in Spain again we will be sure to stay at The 8 again!

The customer service is terrible. There was never anyone at the front desk and no one ever responded to messages sent via multiple routes (telephone, what’s app, hotel email). I never even saw a single other hotel guest while I was there, it was a little creepy how empty the property was the entire time. Also, there is no window in the room itself so everything is super dark, only a small window in the corner of the bathroom that looks out onto a brick wall. The air was stagnant due to lack of flow and no fan/AC. The only positive thing was the location was good. Would not recommend.

Our stay was ruined when on our third night, the owner came knocking on our door and threatened to call the police on us. I was in the shower when my friend knocked on the door and asked me to come out because the owner thought we had a third person in the room and said we had 5 minutes to get them out before she called the police. I quickly dried and walked outside to the reception to see what was going on. Apparently she thought she had seen a third person walk into our room on the security cams. We welcomed her to come inside to check herself but she was unwilling to believe us or check. It was especially odd considering we both greeted her when we got back that evening while she was out smoking on the balcony. There is only one entrance and the reception is right next to the door, plus our room is in view from the balcony where she was smoking. There was no way for a third person to walk in without it being obvious. Even if there was an extra person, I found the immediate threat extremely unprofessional and the fact that she didn't apologize after we clarified there was no third person there immensely disappointing. I tried to ask her how it was that we got to this situation and she walked away from me, muttering something about having the right to check on her rooms. Moreoever, that day our rooms were not cleaned (we got back around 7pm). We did not sleep comfortably that night as we could hear her playing music in the lobby right outside our door until around 11pm.

The hotel is very close to public transit which is great. The hotel is walking distance to many good eats, shopping, and although it’s on a busy street you can barely hear city noise from your room. The rooms are nice and cozy. I was room hopping during my 7 day stay so I got to experience 2 different double rooms and a single room. My fave room is the double with a balcony view facing the street. The single is nice if you’re solo. It was bigger than my single room in Amsterdam lol Complimentary breakfast every morning with the usual croissants, deli meats, toast, etc. Can’t complain about free food, right?! They have a tea and coffee station that’s avail 24/7 - a must for me. Staff is super nice and courteous. The first front desk woman who checked me in was very helpful. She gave me a map of the city and pinned the must see sights and what areas to be wary about - even giving me tips on how to avoid being a victim of scams and pickpocketing. She recommended I get a T-10 public transit card to get around the city - it really was the best option. The second front desk woman was just as nice. On New Years Eve she gave out bottles of cava and cookies for every room. Overall, very personable experience at this hotel.

The complimentary tea, coffee and local wines and nibbles were a welcome bonus after a long day sightseeing. A good breakfast selection when you consider maximum number of people that can stay at any one time (13)..( It would be unreasonable to expect the variety on an all inclusive buffet of a 400 room hotel) We will be staying again when we come back. we have just the one suggestion, and that is to have a bin or container in the kitchen area to put the tea bags and milk containers after making drinks as it felt unnatural to just leave them on the side for the lovely staff to tidy away..

A hidden little gem in Barcelona. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Staff is very helpful and friendly.

Breakfast is very good, plentifful and there are healthy options to choose from.
Common areas are comfy and clean.

The location is also great. Paseo de gracia is just around the corner. and Plaza Cataluna is just a few blocks away. There are lots of shops and restaurants in the area.

Stops for the hop on/off buses are also nearby and are very easy to spot.

I would definetively stay there again and recommend it to anyone.

Excellent location and lovely The 8 team

I really loved my time at this hotel. I felt that I was truly welcomed by the staff and enjoyed every minute of my stay. I definitely recommend this hotel to my friends if they have a chance to visit Barcelona! The breakfast and the complimentary wine were delicious!

95% gave it top score..it was true

As other have said: simple but... Not as in cheap, but minimalistic while being really having a boutique feel.

Friendly homely staff, comfy bed, 2 double windows (4 layers of glass) ensured I could sleep despite being ON the avenue.

Speaking of avenue the location is quite amazing especially for a good weekend trip... Walking distance to everything in beautiful Barcelona.

Breakfast with good quality stuff, not a huge breakfast (missing e.g eggs, bacon but have nice cheeses, awesome coffee any time of the day, salami, yoghurt...).

Very clean and cleverly stylish. For the price a 5 out of 5 easily from me.

We Were Pleased

No frills but everything we needed, super staff! Found the room a bit warm at night. La Rita next door is an outstanding local restaurant. Location is good, an easy walk to Las Ramblas, Gothic quarter, Le Segrada Familia, even the downtown seaside is walkable,

Great Stay

Great location in safe neighborhood one block from Casa Battlo. Walking distance to La Sagrada Familia and metros, good restaurants, Las Ramblas, Casa Mila, and bus to Park Guell. Staff could not have been more helpful and welcoming. Quiet room with comfortable bed, hot shower, and very nice breakfast. Tea and coffee available 24 hours. Taxis easily available right outside. Highly recommended!

A great little Pearl right in the center.

It was a great place to stay and so convenient for somebody like me who had never been to Barcelona. Great bed and very clean and comfortable room. I had to leave early but the sweet lady in the breakfast room made sure i had coffee and something to eat before i left. The breakfast was great. I need help with information before i came and the hotel staff was very fast at providing me with what i needed. Will definitely stay there again and also recommend it to all my friends. Thank you.

Good, cheap, Central hotel

Very nice stay, I was upgraded from a single room to a double. The room was spotless and nicely decorated, and there was no sound from the busy streets outside. My only slight complaint was that there was no view from the window other than out to a very grimy centre bit, so there was no natural light really. But the staff were great and very helpful, and the breakfast was basic but fresh and tasty.

Great staff and convenient location

Excellent staff, always helpful and pleasant. Enjoyed the wine and snacks every night. The room was clean and the toiletries were nice. Great wifi with multiple transmitters for strong coverage. Provided a map and helped with directions and recommendations. I brought my own dinner from the local market one evening and they were very accommodating to allow me to use the plates and silverware in the breakfast area. Two very minor points for future travelers -- I wish I would have realized that the included breakfast didn't start until 830 am, as I was out the door before 730 am every day. Also, if I had known they didn't provide washcloths, I would have brought my own - it's apparently not common in Spain.

Everything was brilliant.

From the moment we arrived to when we left we felt totally welcomed and looked after. Great location, friendly staff, cool and stylish interior. The free wine and nibbles each evening was particularly appreciated. Top b & b!

Decently located

One kilometer from La Sagrada Familia, 2.5 kilometers from Park Guëll and 1.2 kilometers from La Rambla. Parking right around the corner (pay the man at the ticket booth NOT the machine just a side FYI). The hotel staff was kind, polite, and non-intrusive. Room was comfy, plenty of space and the included breakfast was simple and delightful. Great deal for the overall package.

Nice hotel with great location

We had a great experience at The 8 B&B Boutique hotel It was a small, quaint facility with a perfect central location to all the shops, restaurants ant major tour spots in the city. Egor and his Staff were wonderful hosts that extended to us lovely hospitality! They even went the extra mile of surprising me with a bottle of Champagne in my room in honor of my birthday, which meant a lot to me! I was very pleased with our stay and would definitely stay there again when I visit Barcelona! Excellent boutique hotel!!

Will return.

This was by far the best breakfast spread of any included breakfast this month. Neapreaso machine. A glass of wine on arrival. Clean small room. Comfortable bed.
