Elena's apartment is great when you want to check out Valencia with a group of friends. The best thing about it definitely is the outside terrace. The kitchen is a bit small, especially with a group of 7 people, but we made it work. A big plus is that the kitchen is well equipped.
the communication with Elena went smooth, we didn't meet but she contacted us via WhatsApp. The check in went via an app where you could unlock the door downstairs and the apartment door via bluetooth. Sometimes it didn't work upstairs but Elena provided us with multiple keys inside.
The apartment is a bit far away from the beach, but near the city centre so it's just what you prefer. We took a bike or taxi to the beach and that was fine! There is a big Lidl across the street where we did all our grocery shopping and a little bakery on the corner where you can get very good coffee, must try!
Thanks for your hospitality Elena!
