Carles was fantastic! Kind, passionate about the city, helpful, practical. He picked me up from the train, texted with me, asked me about my journey. He showed me maps and offered to help if I needed anything at all! The apartment was perfect; couldn't have asked for more: right by the city center and everything you need: restaurants, museums, train station etc. I would absolutely stay with Carles again, anytime. If you want a solid place and reliable host in Valencia, look no further.
