Our host was welcoming however overall we were disappointed in our stay. The house is smaller than expected and is arranged on 4 levels and exhausting hiking all those stairs after a day of exploring Barcelona. The washer is also broken and couldn't be fixed until "after we left". The shower head was also broken, but they did come fix that the next day. The showers are cramped but we did have enough hot water for 8 of us to take quick showers. The linens were well used and rough. I would not recommend staying here. It is affordable but I wish I would have invested a little more money to be more comfortable.
