We enjoyed our stay in Valencia but had some issues with the Loft. The Loft is located in one of the best city parts, Russafa which is very near to the city center and has some good restaurants and bars. Walking distance to the main train station is 12-15 mins.
If you have a car, finding a parking place would be the most difficult issue, because the street side parking are always full, which makes you drive round n round Russafa for very long.
To the Apartment itself, I must say we were kinda disappointed. The Building had many Lofts, and we stayed in the number 4.
Good things: there were enough bedsheets and covers. The bed was really comfortable. The AC was working perfectly. There was an iron and hair dryer and enough plates and glasses.
1. Safety: There were 2 doors. One is the building door and one is our apartment's door. The lock of the main door which actually gets open with a code was damaged, which means u could just push the door and get inside.
The apartment door gets opened also with a code. If they don't change this code after each stay, it means it is very unsecure to leave your stuff there. We have it on tape.
When we wanted to go out, we just could pull the door and that's it. We couldn't lock the door, we just had a code and no key. Which means someone could easily open the door with a slim card etc. This gave us a very unsafe feeling. Even after calling them, we got no help, because they barely could understand what we were saying. So we just gave up asking for their help and hoped nobody gets inside our Loft 😄
2. As amenities, they had an electric kettle on the list, which was missing. After contacting them they said they will bring one but nobody came.
3. The washroom sink was unclean and partly blocked since we came to the apartment, which made us even wash our face or brush our teeth under the shower.
4. There was dust all over the floor, tables, and other surfaces.
5. The TV is not a smart TV, so you actually can forget using it. Even if u want to see the local channels, the antenna cable is damaged, so you can forget that one too. Lol
6. The Loft had sliding windows, which's lock was damaged and couldn't get locked.
