Really enjoyed our stay at Patrizia's apt in Valenica, it was a 5 min walk from the Metro station and there is a Lidl supermarket on the street which is very convenient. The beach is approx 15 min walk away.
The apt itself was spotlessly clean and the pictures online were accurate. Plenty of room for our group of 4. Lovely showers and the roof terrace was well used as it catches the sun for most of the day too which was a real bonus. Really nice for a drink before heading out or a coffee in the morning.
The location feels quite suburban but we had no issues getting around. The apt is on the 1st floor of a building so the stairs up to it are quite steep. Not great if you a hauling a buggy up and down or for small kids.
Overall a great apt in a gorgeous city.
