Boutique 1847

Fine location, didn't mind the stairs up however once we arrived in the room it was a mess. One of our towels had giant holes in it. The room smelled like mildew, probably because of the wood flooring to the shower. The toilet had stains around the bottom. The sink was missing a drain stop and we could move the table holding the sink basin very easily - it wasn't attached to the floor or wall or anything. The bed was comfortable. The walls were thin and we could understand what our neighbors in the hotel were saying. It is annoying that they had a kettle with slots for tea or coffee bags, but none were provided. Also when we arrived the window curtain was half off the rod because the curtain was secured with velcro. It was easy to fix but shows the cleaning staff have very little attention to detail. the bathroom walls were also metal and rusting, which seems poorly thought through and poorly cleaned.

I would not stay here again. The hotel was a shock when we first arrived. The front door was covered in graffiti and we felt very unsafe walking through a deserted old building, past a hostel, to get to the actual hotel. Although the room was similar to the pictures, the standard wasn't good. The glass on the shower door was cracked, there was mould around the shower, the floors could have done with a hoover and there were dirty marks all over the walls. It ruined our first night in Barcelona as we were in shock more than anything, its annoying when you work hard and pay a decent amount of money and your mislead the way we were. There are so many other hotels that we had seen on booking.com and hotels.com that we walked past when we were there and the were similiar prices and looked really really nice. The location is good, but we never felt at ease or safe. It's also really loud during the night so its hard to get a good nights sleep.

Loved the hotel and the staff was friendly and very helpful

Cute local feel in a great location to bistros and shops

This was a perfect location for our first time in Barcelona with nearby restaurants and bars. The hotel was a little tricky to find, however, staff was very friendly in helping us. It's important to know the actual hotel is up at least 6 flights of stairs with no elevator. The room was very clean and quaint. We were very comfortable and felt safe. The hotel is about a 5-7 minute walk to Las Ramblas where you can take the metro to all tourist areas including Sagrada Familia and Gaudi houses.
