María was a great communicator and is a great person! When I arrived, she was waiting for me, and immediately made my feel that her apartment was my home. She explained everything about the apartment and gave a lot of advice about getting around in the city and to the beach. The apartment is modern, clean, spacious, and has more than everything that one needs. The pool is beautiful - there is a kid's section and an adult section. I was traveling alone, and felt completely safe, as there is a guarded security gate to get into the apartment complex. Even outside of the complex, the neighborhood had a family feel.. There are several restaurants and stores very close to the apartment. I really enjoyed being away from the tourist areas, but at the same time, I was able to get to the historic downtown area within 10 - 15 minutes using the metro. One easy transfer also gives you direct and cheap access to the train stations and the airport. Also, if you plan to do the historic tour of the city, the Bus Turistic (stop #6), is very close to the apartment (right by Beniferri metro station). I highly recommend Maria's apartment to people staying in Valencia. You will not regret this choice!
