Jose’s place is half a block from Picasso’s birthplace! It’s centrally located to museums and lively scene night and day. Mildly noisy because of the proximity to the busy Plaza de la Merced. But no worries at all for me (54 and like my sleep) or my son (22 and doesn’t really care:) Fantastic air conditioner!!!! We didn’t really use it much because it wasn’t really hot but it’s important nonetheless and it works great! Jose’s place is also a short walk from the beach! Jose gave us nice recommendations and we had a great time! Gracias!
