Pictures don’t do it justice. Incredible place. Nice spacious open floor plan for living room and kitchen makes you feel like you’re in a loft. Brand new modern renovation done with amazing taste. There’s plants all around making it feel homey but nothing cluttered. Totally clean feeling. Incredible attention to detail, from 2 hanging umbrellas on the coat rack to the Nescafé coffee provided to soap/shampoo in showers. Plenty of dishes. (Though for some reason no coffee mugs but was def no big deal)
A/C is only in living room but it works very well. Bedrooms have ceiling fans. (One still hasn’t been installed when we got here but will be very soon as this place has literally just been finished) we were here in the height of August heat and though the bedrooms were a little warmer than the main room it was fine. I noticed it a little at night when trying to go to sleep but it didn’t bother me too much and by morning it was fine.)
On the 5th floor of one of the taller buildings in the area so the light is wonderful as promised.
Josefa, the host was immediately responsive. We had a small problem and she made it right immediately. She was great! And Carlos/Eva who assisted her were friendly and prompt for check in/check out.
Location is perfect. 12 minute walk to center through the windy cool streets of the old city with great atmosphere to soak up on the way — plus all sorts of hidden gems to discover as you get lost like I did :) This apartment really makes you feel like a local!
The bus to the cultural center and Oceanogràfic is a 2 minute walk from apartment and take 20-25 minutes.
Parking was a little tricky. The streets are all pay parking from 9:00-14:00, 16:00-20:00. I ended up parking in plaza de la reina, by the cathedral which was around 21€ a day. I later noticed that there seemed to be free street parking right outside the old city across the bridge at the park. But was too lazy to go move my car. But for the motivated you could probably find parking there.
Me and my family loved this place! Would def stay again.
