We had a lovely time staying at Mercedes' beautiful, well-designed apartment. The sun terrace is a huge bonus, and the who flat feels really spacious and airy considering its size, thanks in part to the clever layout.

Mercedes was kind to leave us a bottle of wine and some beers on our arrival, and she was very helpful showing us on a map how to get to a few places we'd asked about. She also gave us some great restaurant recommendations including La Salita.

The area felt safe and it was easy to walk to the cool neighbourhood of Russafa, and was also walking distance to the commercial centre, plus an easy bus ride to the beach. All in all a great place, which we'd happily book again. Thanks Mercedes!
