Mayte was so sweet and kind, it truly felt like having a family member to look out for you while you're travelling. She went out of her way to help me, picking me up from the train station and giving me her home phone number so I could call with any questions.

Her apartment is just lovely. Light, cool and breezy, it has a really good feeling about it. Very clean and homey. The view of the gardens is almost surreal. It's in a residential area, but is steps from the metro, a 25min walk to the beach, or a quick bike ride to anywhere you could want to go (and biking is extremely convenient in the city).

I would definitely recommend staying here, for both the apartment and it's host. I hope I get to go back to Valencia one day, and if so I would stay here again in a heartbeat!
