Alejandro's place is very clean and recently renovated. It's about 3 blocks from the tram which you can take to the beach. If you take a taxi to the beach, it costs about $13 Euros. from there. There's a restaurant called Bonestar that is a block away and we enjoyed their food. It's about a 15 minute walk to Torres de Serranos which is a fantastic area of awesome restaurants. The Cathedral is very close to Torres de Serrano. My family and I would definitely stay at Alejandro's place again. Highly recommended.
