It has been a nice stay for two weeks at Ricardos place for me. A comfy bed and a good place to explore the city from – what more do you need?
Ricardo was very responsive and quick to help with problems, and the cleaning lady kept the place in top condition. There are two other rooms also rented out. For me, talking to other guests was a pleasure. And the mocha makers for the gas stove are just the best way to enjoy some coffee in the morning. Tip: Get some Gazpacho from the Ametller Origen store nearby and store it in the fridge. It's a great way to enjoy Spanish cuisine.
Two caveats should be mentioned: The room is quite loud as the traffic outside is busy and the windows are old. So if you have a light sleep, you should bring some ear plugs. And even though Ricardo has put a lot of thought and effort into designing an aesthetically pleasing place, it would benefit from some renovation.
Though I think it should be cheaper, I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a hassle-free stay in one of the nicest cities of the world.
