I stayed at Albertos Apartment in Valencia for about a month and I absolutely loved it. The place is stylish, bright and clean, has a well equipped kitchen and a really nice bathroom. Alberto and his parents, whom I´ve also met, are very kind and super helpful. He gave me a lot of tips where to go, for example when there was a certain event at night or where I could watch football matches. There was a small problem with the drainage pipes in the kitchen, but Alberto immediately took care of it and had it fixed early the next day, so I had abolutely no trouble dealing with the issue.
The location of the apartment is incredible, it is in the middle of the old part of town, the ciudad vieja, in the barrio carmen. There are a lot of cool bars and good restaurants very close (I can especially recommend La Strada,a pizzeria just around the corner) and the quarter is full o life. It is a five to ten minute walk to the major squares Plaza de la Virgen, Plaza de la Reina and Plaza del Ayuntamiento and even closer to the amazing Mercado Central and the Jardin del Turia, a beautiful park where once the river Rio Turia flew. I would absolutely recommend renting a bike (there´s a rental place just around the corner) and riding through the park to the ciudad de las artes y sciencias and the beach.
Again, I abloutely loved Valencia and would (and probably will) definitely book Albertos aparment again.
