If you are someone who values quick-and-easy administration, this is perfect. Getting there is easy, I always find China-Town is a great area to stay in, and even though the exterior of the building looks old, inside is new and clean, and actually very nicely furnished. There are fans in the apartment, so if you have trouble staying cool at night, just have a cold shower and lie in front of the fan. Beautiful Bike rental shop is extremely near-by on the other side of the station tracks, if you enjoy cycling, then Valencia is a great place to do it. That shop rents out very classic and functional bikes.
