Ivan met me at the property promptly, he guided me around the apartment and the building making sure I had everything I needed for my stay including fresh towels and laundry. Nothing was too much trouble and he went to great lengths to make sure I knew where the best places to eat and drink were. Ivan is a great host and a native of Valencia so knows the city inside and out. The apartment was clean and tidy on my arrival with fresh oranges in the bowl!

The apartment is perfectly located to visit the nearby park (converted from the old river bed), the Cathedral Square and City Hall are about 10 minutes walk, nearby there are lots of bars and restaurants. Just outside the apartment is the Valenbici bike hire system, you can borrow a bike to tour the city and drop off and pick up all over the city.

Altogether a great first experience for me using AirBnB. Valencia is a lovely city with lots too offer. I will definitely be back next year for Las Fallas 2016.
