As a first time user of the airbnb platform as well as a first time traveller to Spain his place gave me the perfect launchpad to explore the city and its well-connected transit system via the Angel Gumeira station. The apartment was a 1 floor walk-up but Tanausu so graciously helped me with my luggage, which is no easy feat. Located just opposite the local market, I was able to experience a non-touristy Spanish neighbourhood with all its local residents and could self-cater as it was just steps away from the local supermarket. The internet in the house was fast and enabled me to work from home several times a day. I also appreciated the bottled water, spices/condiments and wine that he left for me in the kitchen. Also, don't forget to read his guidebook! It was a real insider's take on what to do and eat in Valencia.
