Ella and Tomas were great host. They've recommended us a few places to eat and places to visit. My Fiancé had some great conversations with Ella. The location of the place was walking distance to some of the greatest restaurants and near the Picasso museum. I didn't find the area to be noisy since it was located in the heart of El Born where many tourists were visiting. Definitely would recommend anyone looking to visit Barcelona to take a look at this place.
