Honestly not as bad as this site suggests. There are a few coworking spaces here, although they're pretty expensive and people don't speak english well. The location is great if you like sightseeing - there are many things to see in the city and its sorroundings, and if you get bored you can always hop on a train to Marseille, Lyon, Nimes or some other city nearby. The city gets cold in the winter (especially with the wind blowing all the time) and people generally don't speak english well. The

It's a bit on the expensive side, I'd recommend it if you want to escape Barcelona for a few days. In COVID times, there were almost no cases or restrictions.
