The apartment is lovely! The views from the decks (plural) are wonderful. Ricard was warm and very welcoming. He was super prompt in response to electronic communications. (In addition, he was more than patient with my 1 million questions). His book of pointers and suggestions on the coffee table was of tremendous help to us navigating our first trip to Barcelona! I would stay at Ricard's place again and will recommend it to others. Muchas Gracias, Ricard!
