Steffen’s apartment in the Cabanyal district of Valencia, near the beach and away from the city center, is a perfect place to stay in Valencia. Steffen was responsive and detailed. The apartment is very charming, perfect for one person or a couple. Renting bikes is the best way to get around the city. Valencia has amazing food and the friendliest people, and prices are very reasonable there. You should go!
PS La Montana restaurant in the Cabanyal had the best food of anywhere we tried, including Madrid and Barcelona.
And the Cabanyal fresh food market, open from 7-3, is better and cheaper than the main downtown Valencia market.
If you’re in downtown Valencia, you should see the historic silk market, la llotja de la seda, it’s amazing.
