We had a good stay at Brians place. The room was basic but all we needed for a sightseeing trip. Unfortunately we were a bit disappointed with the cleanliness in the kitchen. The host and his friends/ other guests regularly came home late at night (around 3am one night) and were taking loudly on the balcony outside our room which disturbed us quite a bit. This was surprising since the description said they are fairly quiet people who prefer guests who don’t party. Overall, the place had what we needed for 4 days in Barcelona with good access into the city.
