We just stayed at Rafa`s place as a family of 7 with our 5 children (youngest ones are 6 and 10 yrs old) during our first visit in Valencia and we could have not asked for more. There was plenty of space for everyone, comfy beds, all needed amenities were provided, from soap, shampoo, hairdryer, plenty of towels, dishwasher tablets and bin bags to a beautiful welcome hamper that provided everything for our first breakfast. The apartment is exactly as described and lies in the truly wonderful neighbourhood Cabañal. It's in a beautiful quiet street with a lovely square with a church and there are two great tapas bars at your doorstep about 20 metres away, so is a little playground. Casa Montana is another tapas bar about 3 minutes walk from the appartement which we highly recommend, we went there twice, reservation is needed though as it gets really busy. Rafa has left a great welcome brochure which explains everything and has lots of great restaurant and sightseeing tips in. There is a great, cheap supermarket about 5 minutes walk away and 10 minutes walk away a great market full of fresh fruits, vegetables etc. which in our opinion was even better then the big market in the town centre. The metro station is 10 minutes away, so is the beach. We even walked to the science museum in about 30 minutes. We parked our car safely and free in the surrounding streets. Cabanal is a great neighbourhood if you want to get a feel of the real Valencia and not be in the touristic centre, yet have easy access to everything, we would certainly stay there again anytime.
