This was our first visit to Spain and when we chose Valencia as our first stop, we wanted to find a great location in a great neighborhood...and did we ever! The apartment was beautiful, very well kept and had every luxury you could want. The location was a vibrant locals neighborhood with countless cafes and Tapas bars. Within 1 block, we had a grocery store, wine store, pharmacy, meat shop, fruit shop, and several coffee and pastry shops. With 15-20 minutes walk, you can reach the old city, or the other direction to the City of Arts and Sciences complex. We never used a car and were able to see all of the must-see spots in the city. And Ivan the host was fantastic. He met us on check-in to show us how to use everything and gave us the layout of the town, as well as stay in touch via Whatsapp to help us find new places to explore. This is a great place and recommend to anyone wanting to get the full Valencian city life experience.
