Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important

there are few discos in the city itself but enough bars to have a drink or two.
only an our to barcelona by train.
two university parties during semester which are fantastic!!
our favorite place to have a cold beer is the "agora" (no kidding, it´s really called that way) in the historical part of town.

Personal comments
Since this university is based in Katalonia where they speak Catalan, it was not always as straight forward with the spanish language. I did not however experience any greater problems with it. Everyone speaks spanish and do not mind adressing you in that language if you are a foreigner.
