We enjoyed our fifteen day stay in July in the apartment of Claude and Anne Laroche very much.
We are a couple in our fifties and two girls of seventeen years old. Our contact with Claude in advance was very pleasant and clear as was our reception once there.

It was a surprise on arrival how beautiful and thoughtfully the apartment was furnished. It has a wonderful climate because of the airconditioning that can be tuned seperately for each room.
Each day we had our meals outside on the balcony, sitting between beautiful potted plants (that have an automatic watering system, so no bother there).

Valencia is a town that has many charms. Lots to do and to discover. This apartment is located right in the center of the attractions.
On foot we visited all of the following:Torres de Serranos, Catedral, Cripta de San Vicente Mártir, Plaza de la Virgen, Mercado Central, El Carmen, IVAM, Estación del Norte, Jardines del Turia and Jardin Botánico.

Public transport brings you everywhere for a small price (buy the 10rides-card that is even cheaper). For example: The metro (4) brings you in about 15 minutes to the quiet beach with its palmtrees, parasols and blue sea. Bus 95 brings you in 10 minutes to the Ciudad de las Arte y las Ciencias.
On the other side of the Serranosstreet there is an internetcafé (although there is wifi in the apartment, you can print your tickets at the internetcafé). There is a bike-rental on that street as well.
We have cooked our meals in the apartment. The kitchen is fitted with every utensil imagineable. For those that like to eat out, there are many good and cheap restaurants in the vicinity.
You can get your groceries either in the big supermarket Consum at 10 minutes walking distance. Or in the litlle shops strewn in the vicinity.
The beds were wonderful and the linens are washed by the proprietor every week. And we made good use of the two bathrooms (with shower and bath) as well.

Our conclusion; A very reasonably priced apartment in a perfect location with a wonderful quiet atmosphere, that has many conveniences and that we would recommend warmly to everyone. Thank you Anne and Claude for our wonderful stay and your hospitality.
