I stayed in Yulias apartment for a week, with my partner and two children (aged 11 and 7). The apartment was exactly as described, even better than the photos. It was really clean, had everything that we needed. The area was perfect for us - the 95 bus is close and we went every day to the beach in the afternoon. We also took the metro into various parts of the city every day (old town, city of arts and sciences). Again, the metro was really easy to use and accessible. There is a supermarket and a number of small local shops nearby. We loved living beside local people. Yulia herself was so helpful and kind throughout all of our stay. She was quick to provide us with information and to answer questions. She organised for our transport to and from the airport, and met us at the apartment. She had food in the apartment for breakfast on our arrival. I contacted her with questions and she responded immediately and went out of her way to be helpful. I couldn’t recommend her as a host any more. We would definitely stay again, and we loved Valencia !
