We've had a great time in Valencia. The apartment has got all the basics you need: we didn't cook at home but it is definitely possible. Although we didn't meet Julia in person, the communication with her is very good; she responds quickly and makes an effort to make you feel at home. She was very flexible with the times to check in and out, which was very nice and convenient. We have rented two bikes; that made it a lot easier to get around, since especially the old town is like 30 minutes walk. I would recommend this apartment, especially if you consider the low price of the loft.
