I very much enjoyed my stay in Barcelona and at Jose's place. I had never used airbnb before this experience, but i'm glad i did and I think it's a great alternative to staying in a hotel or hostel. Jose was very friendly and helpful, and is an all-around good guy. His apartment is in a good location, on one of the main streets in Barcelona dividing the new part of the city with the old, and just one block from the metro stop, which can take you basically anywhere. And even if you don't feel like using public transport, all the major attractions are within walking distance from Jose's place, as Barcelona is a very pedestrian-friendly city. Jose's set-up was very accommodating. He has experience hosting people from other countries and I felt very at home in his place.
