Toni is a wonderful host who is very eager to describe the wonderfulness of Valencia. The apartment with terrace was wonderful too and fully equipped. The neighbourhood is local, but only 5 minutes by bike from the city centre and the green valley.
Rent bikes and go to the beach that lays after the Ciudad de las Artes y Ciencias. Toni doesn't really speak English (although you receive all practical information in English), but is fluent in French. Merci Toni.
