Ricard's place is clean, in a great location, and has everything you need. Amazing water pressure and hot water, too. Comfortable beds. Ricard is a great host! Very helpful and responds quickly. Gracia is a really nice area with lots of places to eat or grocery shop. One of our favorites for sweets was the American Bakery right up the street. In Placa de la Vila de Gracia there is a good empanada place. Also, we did not realize at first how close we were to the Gaudi houses. This is a great place to stay!
