We had a lovely stay at Paolo's place! The view from the terrace was lovely and it was a cute short walk from the beach! Many of our activities required we take the bus to old town Valencia, and there are a number of stops that were a good 8-15 easy walk from the apartment. It was a little chilly at night, but since we visited during January that was definitely expected. The neighborhood was a little run down, but don't let that drive you away from staying here. We felt safe at all times and had no problem walking around in the early morning or night. The kitchen was such a nice amenity, and we spent most of our time around the kitchen table as there wasn't a large couch. Be aware if you have an early morning flight or train, the public transportation was very limited around 7 am. Paolo was very responsive and gave us so many recommendations! We had a lovely time here and I would definitely recommend it if you're looking for a budget stay near the beach in Valencia!
