Highly recommend!!! Patri's apartment is in the perfect spot - close to the beach, close to taxis or buses - great location! She even left us a welcome gift of Horchata (a yummy spanish drink) and pastries called "Fartones" (delicious bread) that were very good.
We arrived a little too early, but Patri had her father show us around since she was tied up. He was awesome! He didn't know English and we didn't know Spanish, but we had no issues. He was very good at showing us to work everything like the stove, washing machine, AC (which was super cold - great on a hot day!), WIFI, etc. We had no issues not understanding. Patri then followed up to ensure we were all set! Great host!!
We were only in Valencia for a couple of days, but we had a wonderful time. Patri's apartment was perfect! It was very comfortable and very clean. She made sure we had everything we needed - all the basic essentials and more! The apartment was very modern in design and super nice. We had everything we needed! Patri even went above and beyond to give us all the information we could ever need - food recommendations, sights to see, market locations if needed - super helpful!!
Some added notes for future guests:
1. The apartment is a short walk to the beach. The area felt very safe, even at night. Great location!
2. The beach and boardwalk area is amazing. Beautiful beach and so many beach front restaurants and shops to see. We hit a few different restaurants and were happy at each one. They were all delicious!
3. Visit La Pepica for the best Paella - a must when you visit Spain and a very short walk. *I highly recommend sticking to the chicken option. We tried others like shrimp and lobster, but they weren't as good (extremely salty). The chicken was AMAZING!!
4. The listing shows a washing machine, so just be prepared that there is not a dryer. There is a clothes line outside to hang clothes for drying. It worked out perfectly for my family - not a concern or issue at all, more of an FYI.
5. Just a note that the apartment is up quite a few flights of stairs - no elevator, which can seem odd to an American. Just helpful to know in case you have a lot of luggage. We packed light, so no issue.
