Our 3 week stay at Ignacio's place was just wonderful. We picked the area (Ruzafa) randomly and it turned out to be a great neighborhood with restaurants all around and the most amazing park (Parque Central) a few blocks from it that we walked to most evenings for a relaxing time. There are markets nearby, one literally right outside of the building. It made everything super convenient. Ignacio was very responsive anytime we had questions and needed advice on how to get the bus or which restaurants to try. When we wanted to venture to the beach, we rented bikes at a great place just around the corner called Go VLC. Super reasonable prices and very nice service! The bike paths in Valencia are incredible.
Overall, the place was perfect for 4 and depending on your group, 5 would work just fine. The rooms are great, the apartment beautiful, and the kitchen had all we needed to cook (which we did a bunch).
We already miss Valencia and next time we visit, we hope that Ignacio's place will be available. Highly recommend this gorgeous listing!
