The house is nicely set up to accommodate a family or a couple- we did not use the 2nd floor except to access the terrace. The outside terrace was nice to have on sunny days. We were there in
" winter" but we are from the US Midwest so it was like spring for us. The fast WiFi and cable TV were great when we had spent all day out exploring and we're not in the mood to play cards or other games. The use of the washer & dryer were a plus since we were there an extended time. The location is perfect to get to metro and the bus systems and we bought a Bonobus Plus card at tobacco shops for ease of use and to save money. Two convenient bus lines to Central Market, Oceanagraphic and other places of interest are two to three blocks away. One doesn't need a car to get to places in the city . We took a bike tour out to the Albufera area instead of the bus or taxi. The house is also near many restaurants and next to the family restaurant of Casa Montaña, a Michelin- rated tapas place. One can walk to the beach in 10 minutes and had it been in the summer, we would have gone in the water for a swim. We walked daily along the beachfront. He provides beach towels and some sand toys for the kids. Active late night street life. Very enjoyable " home-away-from- home"
