My 5 friends and I stayed at Yulia's apartment in the Natzaret area near the Valencia port for Las Fallas. She was very responsive to our questions and concerns leading up to the trip and was very helpful in giving directions and advice. She made everything easier than we could have ever imagined. She offered to pick us up from the bus station but not all of us could fit in her car so we took the bus which drops you off very close to the apartment and a supermarket. She even offered to pick up our groceries there since we were going to be arriving late! We got to the Consum supermarket and she had already grabbed all of the food we said we'd need for the night. We were so grateful for that. And to top it all off, she drove a couple of us into town to find ice since we had forgotten it at the supermarket. Nothing is better than having a helpful and friendly host.

The apartment was very clean, comfortable, decorated nicely, and newly renovated. Also, she was kind enough to stock the fridge with complimentary fruit and water and she had other canned beverages available for 50 cents. Each of us were also given a nice little Valencia souvenir upon arrival. Yulia led us around the apartment showing us everything and explained how everything worked. We didn't have many neighbors so we couldn't bother anyone with noise and nobody could bother us either. We were a little far from the center but we couldn't complain because of the great price. Plus, there were nearby bus stops with multiple lines to get you into the city in only about 15-20 minutes. The location was in walking distance to the beach; also about 20 minutes.

Overall, we had an amazing time in Valencia for Las Fallas mostly because our apartment and host were so welcoming. I, and my five friends, strongly recommend renting from Yulia!
