The pictures give a good illustration of the reality. The balcony is really a topper, sun all day and out of the wind. The district is highly recommended, very authentic, super quiet and close to te beach. Dario is a very good host, friendly and full of tips on Valencia. The neighbors below are also very nice. They let bicycles (Tobobici), thats the way to explore the city! In summary.....I'll definitely be back :-)
