We had a fabulous stay at Xavier's place! It is a gem. It looks just like the photos: comfortable, quiet, peaceful, private. The decor, outdoor terrace, comfy bed, etc. are all excellent. Xavier and Maria are wonderful hosts – not only fast and helpful with communications, but also simply lovely humans. Xavi gave us lots of recommendations, Maria was flexible with check-in, and they are both very kind. Plus, the Gracia neighborhood is truly among Barcelona's best – and it is all within easy walking distance. In short, highly recommended and we'd love to come back! :)
