This was our first time in Bareclona and we enjoyed it very much. We attribute this to Ricard and the location of his apartment. Ricard was a very friendly and helpful host, he gave us directions and suggestions from time to time. He also responded to inquiries very quickly, sing the Airbnb app.
His apartment is quite spacious and ideal for 2 people. It contains all modern amenities and is conveniently located. Minutes away are grocery stores, restaurants, banks, and metro stops. The apartment has a shaded balcony giving a nice view of Barcelona. The apartment itself was very quiet as were the neighbors.
The building has a secure entry as does the apartment. We never felt being insecure in/near the apartment when walking at night.
Ricard works nearby and offered to print tickets for an event. For this we are very grateful.
One word to note- the elevator is very small, but we fit three people and two small suitcases easily. If your group is larger or you have large suitcases, you may need to wait for the next ride.
We highly recommend Ricard and this apartment to all visitors to Barcelona. Ricard’s hospitality and friendliness are outstanding.
