We very much enjoyed our stay in Barcelona and Ricard's apartment played a large part in that. Ricard was extremely helpful prior to our visit and sent us lots of information to help us find our way to the apartment and help us to get around the city along with a list of places to eat and things to see.
We were greeted on arrival and shown everything we needed to know about the apartment which was easy to manage, very clean and very comfortable.
Ricard lives in the same block and made it clear that if we needed anything during our stay he would be available to help.
I would say that the apartment if absolutely ideal and we can not think of anything else that we could have needed.
