    Barcelona is great . I was there myself 2 years ago. Not that cheap though. Really a great city with lots to see, good night life, great restaurants and clubs, really friendly people and weather should be lovely in sept. Can't recommend accom though as when I went there I stayed with a group of friends and rented an apartment for the week. Would definately recommend going on a walking guided tour. Can buy tickets from the tourist office in Placa Catalunya(the main square in Barcelona centre). I went on the general tour which lasts for 3 hours and goes at a slow pace. Guide was excellent and went through basic history of Barcelona and achitecture as we passed it. I did the tour on my first day and it gave me a great sense of the city. There were also specialised tours looking at Gaudi's work and the Bari Gothic area.
    I would really recommend Rome as an alternative to Barcelona. I love that city. Lived there for a while last summer as a tour guide. If want further info on Rome just let me know and can email you on some.
    Wherever you go hope you have a great holiday with boyfriend :)
