Russafa is a great location and the apartment is only a few minutes’ walk to buses and metro . We had the apartment for a week and wished we had hired bikes for the whole week but were not sure if you could leave bikes in the entrance hall of the building so probably a good question to ask Carolina. Lots of lovely places to eat, our favourites nearby by were Restaurant Copenhagen, El Camerino, Doe Estaciones, El Rus, Casa Almudin and nearer the beach Casamonta and La Mas Bonita Patacona.
Russafa Market is perfect to visit in the morning to pick up nibbles for an evening supper after a busy day sightseeing. The hob is a bit tricky to work but once you know how it is relatively simple, I think the key is not to hold the buttons down too long 1-2-1.
El Corte Ingles near the Bull ring has a lovely supermarket in the basement, note they currently has a few bottles of wine with free glasses, we only discovered this on the last day but would have purchased earlier in the week. The apartment is very well equipped but only tumblers no wine glasses, I do like my wine out of a wine glass!
