I can not recommend Pepa’s casa enough! It Was immaculately clean, in walking distance to major sights, metro and bus station as well as supermarkets and small shops, cafes, bars etc. It is located in a pretty quiet alley, only minutes from central market and lively Barrio El Carmen (however, you must keep in mind that the Spanish spend their evenings and nights often outdoors, so there is some noise from people - which is totally normal in the center of a city). We often used one of the the small balconies for breakfast - two people fit there quite well! And the bed was super comfy! Communication with Pepa and her son Juanjo was perfect - quick and easy-going. One day the boiler broke and we didn’t have hot water - we told Juanjo and the problem was immediately fixed by a professional! We even got a refund for the inconvenience it caused (although it was really not a problem at all - things like this can happen). Thanks so much to Pepa and Juanjo for taking such good care of us!!! It was such a pleasure to stay in your apartment and beautiful Valencia - we felt very much at home!!!
