Edu is the ultimate host, he is knowledgable, helpful and super friendly, I arrived early and he arranged for his parents to clean the apartment and make it available for me several house before I was due to check in, which was extremely kind. His apartment is in an excellent location, very close to the centre of Valencia and easily reachable on foot from the train station, by bus, or by metro from the airport. The location is fantastic, you are in a lively part of the city surrounded by fabulous restaurants, cafes, bars, shops and supermarkets and only short walks from all of the tourist sights and places to visit. The apartment itself is absolutely stunning, it could have been plucked from the pages of style magazine. It's so bright and airy and quiet, decorated to a very high standard. It also has every conceivable appliance, pot pan, tea, coffee etc you could think of. There's even a wonderful terrace at the rear to sip drinks on or have breakfast in morning. Edu responded almost immediately to every message I sent and was always available to offer detailed information regarding the best restaurants and places to visit. El Rausell and La Pepica (Paella to die for!) were personal favourites. He guided me via excellent directions to the beautiful national park 'La Albufera' and a gorgeous beach 'El Saler' highly recommended if you want to be away from the masses on the main beaches further North! All in all it was an absolutely wonderful holiday, it wouldn't have been as much fun without Edu and I highly recommend this apartment to anyone thinking about staying in Valencia. I can't rate it highly enough and hope to come back for future visits to explore this magical city.
