Ximo was really lovely and helpful, getting in touch before and during our visit - lovely flat, spacious for the three of us (we went with our toddler). He provided a cot bed, and both city and neighbourhood are super child-friendly - Valencians made friends with our toddler left, right, and centre, and there are at least two playgrounds within a five minute walk from the flat. The Barrio del Carmen is amazing - lots of nice bars and restaurant, and quirky arty stuff everywhere, including amazing graffiti. The flat is really surprisingly quiet for such a vibrant neighbourhood. Nice to be right in the middle of things, and the beach is a reasonably easy trip on the tram (line four from Ponte de Fusta), too - it's great to be so near the old riverbed, too, as you can walk to a lot of interesting things through the park, which is a nice experience. Valencia as a city is stunning - we could have stayed for another week and still found lots of stuff to do and discover.
