Monica communicated well before arrival, with awesome accurate instructions to get to her from the airport. A nice clean flat, with my own room. Monica spoke good English, so no communication issues. I was after a cultural experience with a local which Monica provided with advise on places to see and good food locations. I would recommended staying at Monica's very close to all you need and the beach. I feel over my short stay I made a new friend:) I would definitely stay with Monica again if in Barcelona.
