We intentionally avoided staying in the city center of Valencia. We enjoyed this location with the proximity of the beach (even though it was bit cool to be swimming). This area is under significant rejuvenation. Many places to eat, drink and shop nearby The direct bus to central Valencia is just around the corner. The Metro and rail stop, from the airport, places you within a 5 minute walk to the apartment. All communication, direct with the owners/host, were quickly responded to and clear. We highly recommend this property for your trip to Valencia.
