I booked the room at the middle of the Fallas in March and I really enjoyed staying at Federicos flat.
It started with the arrival and his welcoming nature to invite me directly to meal and offered me coffee and something to drink.
Afterwards he showed me everything I need and some basic rules, which everyone would automatically do so I think.
The flat is looking like on the pictures, of course they are well made and got good light, tidy flat etc. when made, but you can trust these pictures.
The flat hasn't a luxurios equipment, but it's all good and you have everything to cook, make coffee & tee, you got your own space in a cupboard & the fridge in the kitchen, you can use all sorts of spices and in the bath you have free shower gel & shampoo. So it's very comfortable.
I really appreciated, that Federico likes it clean and keeps it that way. So you also have to clean your stuff when you have cooked etc., but I preferred it that way and it was normal for me. Big Plus :)
Only negative thing about the flat might be that it is not very soundproofed and you can't really close the doors silently. But at day it doesn't matter and in the night you should wear earplugs, if you are sensitive to noise.
To Federico as a host I have to say it's fantastic. He is really warmhearted and wants to know the people he is hosting and also likes to do something with you, so we ate often together, watched a series or, of course, went to the fallas and had a lot of fun. But it's also okay if you do your own thing, as I also did. So everything can, nothing must. Best concept I think.
Furthermore to his knowledge in languages you can really learn something. For me personally I chatted with him in english and german (I come from Germany), but I tried as much as I can to talk spanish to him and developed my skills. So if you want to learn something go there.
Also great are the other inhabitants of the flat. It's always a great mix and melting pot of cultures and personalities. If you are lucky as I was with the other flatmates and you like to get in contact with others, you can really have a great time with them.
Soooo all in all I really appreciated & enjoyed my stay at Federicos flat and his personality. I will never forget the crazy ride to the Mascletas, the great dinner with Victor and other friends or the freshmade Mate from you. :)
I will come back to Valencia & will have a look at your flat.
All the best for you buddy! :)
