I had a work event in Valencia for a week and took my girlfriend along to make a work/vacation trip. Luis' place provided the perfect home base for an unforgettable time in Valencia. I would strongly recommend this place to anyone looking to enjoy the city.
The location itself is in Carmen, the old town. Although this is a bit far from some stuff (like the beach, for instance), there is very easy-to-use public transit (we took the Metro) to anywhere you would want to go. To be honest though, we didn't leave the area much because we just found so much enjoyment nearby. The Carmen area has so many restaurants, art, and life in general, it seems like there is no better place to get a sample of the excitement of Valencia.
The apartment is super stylish and squeaky clean but not at the cost of amenities. The bed was comfortable and after discovering there are blackout shades in the bedroom, we slept really well. The kitchen is stocked with the essentials of cooking (some spices, oil, etc) as well as all utensils. This, and the dining area, make the space perfect for going out or staying in and cooking a meal. There is also a washing machine in the kitchen, which we ended up using because of the toll the hot summer days took on our clothes.
Luis is a very friendly guy and probably the most responsive host I've ever encountered on Airbnb. Occasionally I'll feel like I only have a rough idea of what to expect from a reservation, but this was not one of them. Luis' extremely thorough care and recommendations helped us optimize our time for maximal enjoyment. For our arrival, he arranged a taxi, as well as his friend to meet us for check-in and she was also far above par with her incredible hospitality and local tips. Check out was a total breeze as well.
I feel incredibly lucky for finding this place for this value and would stay here again in a heartbeat.
