Maria's place is fantastic. It's not simply furnished with chairs and beds, but has many touches that make it seem like it is a home. This place is very highly recommended in terms of location, price, cleanliness, transport links, and everything else. The a/c works great, and quickly cools things off when you get back in the afternoon. There are plenty of local places to eat or have a drink, and old town Valencia is literally just 2 blocks away. The only negative we have after 6 weeks of living there is the barking of the dog in the apartment below this one. Maria is aware of this problem and it working on it, so once that's taken care of this apartment is 5-star all the way.
