Karim was a wonderful host. He met us at the apartment building and gave us a tour, letting us know about the idiosyncracies of the place. He even came back when I couldn't figure out the European washing machine (American). The apartment itself is lovely. In the back, there are windows out onto rooftops and back balconies, and in the front, a terrace shared with one long term renter faces the street. For anyone worried about the climb, there is a small elevator in the building's entryway. It wouldn't fit a wheelchair, but we were very grateful for it! If we are ever back in Valencia, we hope this place is available. Thank you, Karim!
