Pros:
This apartment is in a convenient location in the Old Quarter, easily walkable to many of the city sights, including the Central Market, where we bought most of our food for our three day stay in Valencia.
Check-in was easy and accommodating. The apartment is well laid out, with the bedrooms and baths in the back and the front room facing two small balconies with lots of light and lively street views.
Cons:
There is no lift in the building, and carrying luggage up three very narrow, steep, long flights of stairs is extremely difficult and even dangerous. We would absolutely not have booked here if we’d known this. The owners helped us get our bags up the first night, but we stressed about getting them down again for our early morning departure the whole time we were there! We called the owner the night before leaving to request help in ordering a taxi for 7:00 the next morning and mentioned our concern, hoping she would offer to send her husband by to help us again, but she merely advised us cheerfully to “be careful.”
Luckily our taxi driver actually came all the way up those crazy stairs and carried both our bags down one by one. He was a strong young man and even he was struggling. Needless to say, he got a big tip!
We were supplied with only one thin bath and face towel apiece for a 3 night stay, and had to call and request more, which were supplied the next day.
It is worth mentioning that although this place is advertised as two baths, only one of them has a toilet. The other is just a shower in one of the bedrooms. Also, the beds are not comfortable. The mattresses are hard (not in a good way) and the bed linens are cheap and scratchy.
Bottom line:
If you are in great shape and traveling extremely lightly (with only a backpack, maybe!) this place would be perfectly okay.
