Manuels apartment is located in a quiet street, just a few footsteps away from a huge array of lovely restaurants, shops and bars. The surrounding area itself is very buzzy with a great atmosphere. The food market and historical centre are both a 5 minute walk away, and bus stops are also close by to get to the beach or other areas. The city of Arts and Sciences is bus ride away, however we took the hours walk through the beautiful scenic park that surrounds the city - would recommend doing this to really see Valencia. We found Manuel extremely helpful, providing a map and detailed description of things to see in the area on our arrival. The apartment itself is a nice space, spotlessly clean with all necessities needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was comfy and the shower had good water pressure (sometimes an issue in apartments). Also liked the complimentary bottle of wine Manuel left for us in the fridge. We used the apartment as a base, and for this purpose it was perfect. Would recommend Manuels apartment for the location, huge choice of restaurants in the area, and comfort.
