This was our first stay in Valencia. I tried to find a place with good facilities:
This place was amazing! We had a very warm welcome from Carmen and her husband Miguel. They welcomed us a we were old friends. Their appartment is better than I expected: Bedroom (2) the double bed we had was GOOD. more than enough space for our clothing and bags. The bathroom: great! bath/shower. Nice towels (and enough!) shampoo, hair-dryer. The kitchen! even better than my own kitchen! We were welcomed with cookies, milk, tea, coffee, fresh fruits, wine, water..... woww... The living room with a great couch, dining-table. BigTV-screen. wifi, and really everything very nice & tastefully decorated.. One BIG terrace.. :-) :-) and a small one, where you can store your rented bikes. Which is great! Oh, and a washing machine.. (!) and last but not least: everything as clean as possible!
The neighbourhood doesn't look very nice, but that's just the outside. As I described above: the appartment is GREAT!
Busses are in 3-5 mins walking distance, Metro 5 in 12 mins (If you are keen enough to find your way.. ;-) Big supermarket in 2 minutes, and bicycle-rent in 5 minutes. Everything in 15 minutes cycling-distance. 7 minutes cycling from Science/Opera. To the beach/harbour: 10 minutes! So it is in the middle of everything! Couldn't be better!!
