We stayed in Christian's apartment in Valencia and we were welcomed by Mercedes who was very helpful and gave us some info about the area and the apartment.
The location of the apartment was excellent because it was only 30 mins from the airport by metro and easy to find. Also you are mins away from bars and restaurants, so if you want to eat or drink you don't need to travel very far. Also there is a few supermarkets nearby so you can get snacks and drinks from there.
Transport links are very good and close by and easy to get to the main attractions in Valencia. If you want to go to the beach and the marina, it is also only about 35 mins journey time.
We recommend checking out the Oceanographic, Valencia Cathedral, Bioparc zoo, central market, central square, Albufera lake and there is a castle type building 3 mins walk from apartment where there is some great views and also it's free to go up. Also recommend checking out the Radio City bar just 2 mins away. We went on a Thursday and it was an open mic night with some good music. It later turns into a club at the back. There was some other things but I recommend just walking around and you find a lot of things to do.
We really enjoyed our experience in Valencia and it was made even better staying at Christian's apartment. The apartment was clean and tidy and a lot of things provided.
Thanks Christian and Mercedes we had a great time!
