Prior to our arrival communications with Maria were very good. We were unable to meet Maria when we arrived but her sister Laura took good care of us and our check in and check out went to plan. We were made to feel very welcome and there were some lovely supplies for our first night. There was a slight problem with our keys, but Laura returned very quickly to resolve the issue immediately and the problem that arose was specific to the Apartment Complex and not due to our hosts. The apartment has all that you need for a comfortable stay - wifi works brilliantly, pool is lovely and clean and hard to tear yourself away from it, but Valencia beckons and the number 67 bus always seems to be outside at the bus stop just waiting for you! There is also a tram to the beach which is fabulous and the metro is a few hundred yards away. The air conditioning in the main living area is effective, but the bedroom does not have an air conditioning unit and we found the nights difficult with just having a fan in the bedroom. If you do not have a problem sleeping on a futon this would not be an issue as there is a futon in the living area and so you would be much cooler - due to us both having back problems we were unable to sleep on the futon. There are local Tapas bars to discover, but the ones closest to the apartments close very early in the evening. If you want to take a ten minute walk look out for Montaditos Karina, Puerto de Santa María 3 C.P. 46015 Valencia, excellent Tapas, a lovely place to spend the evening. Also the Science park is amazing it takes all day to see it all properly. If you are looking to stay in Valencia, Art Loft could be the perfect place for you to stay as Maria and Laura really care about you and will help with any questions you may have about their amazing city.
