My husband and I spent 8 days at the end of July in Laura's apartment and we would absolutely recommend it to any couple visiting Valencia. Unfortunately we did not have the chance to meet Laura, but we were met by her super-nice friend Tana (who speaks perfect Italian), who was an amazing substitute host, gave us great advice on restaurants and sightseeing, and even texted us a couple of times over the week to make sure that everything was ok. Thank you Tana!
The apartment itself is located on the first floor of a restored building in the old center of Valencia, at walking distance (5 mins) from the Central Market and the Cathedral. Spotless clean, very comfortable and it has everything you need, even for a medium-length stay such as ours. AC works perfectly. The small street below is very quiet and you can sleep with your windows open without worrying about the noise. Remember that it is on the 1st floor and located on a narrow alley, so it can get a little dark in the afternoon, but other than that I cannot think of a single flaw. Thanks again to Laura and Tana!
