We stayed for a week with our six month old baby and found the apartment great for exploring València on foot and using public transport. Melanie’s apartment is comprehensively stocked and she also provides many baby essentials: all we had to bring was a changing pad, a blanket/play-mat and age appropriate toys as cot, high chair, bath and blackout blinds were provided. There was even a blender so we could make our daughter some fresh vegetable purées to eat. The washing machine was also a huge advantage!
There are plenty of good supermarkets close by and the old town is a short walk away. Since it was winter when we visited, the terrace didn’t get sun during the day and was too chilly to use but this was not a problem as the fabulous 9km linear park Jardines del Turia is 1,5 blocks away, giving us all the sun and time outdoors we could desire. If you too are visiting in winter it might be a good idea to bring some slippers and a warm top as the apartment can get a bit cold (though Melanie provides good heaters, the apartment floors are tiled in many places as is the Spanish tendency and these floors get especially chilly).
Overall, we found that the flat was well equipped with all the necessities and became a great home base for our adventures in Valencia.
