what a wonderful apartment in valencia! if you are someone who likes to stay in an authentic neighborhood, all ages and interests, quiet at night(sleep is critical for us) and close to atm’s, favorite bakeries”the point “ never failed, neither its coffee nor its sterling waitstaff), this is a great choice. we had the good fortune to be in valencia during las fallas....everything from 20 paella pans cooking one block away as the fallas were being prepared...to the opportunity to visit the cite de fallas, where ninots were built(often taking mutiple artists a year. ). then there were the four primary nights.multiple story satiric cartoon-like figures, including the best satiric versions of trump i have seen since the inauguration. look them up; they are priceless.
then there were the 3 days of 24-hour fireworks, to which all adjust remarkably well.
and if you are not interested in fallas(apparently they also do the work for disney!) there is, a brief ride from the apartment, a multi-story wood-built virgin filled with flowers, accompanied by entire families in traditional spanish costume, including brocades, mantillas, and manly and musical accompaniment. you cannot make this up, you need to live in sergio’s apartment. wonderful....
