Beatriz's place was sparkling clean and had every amenity we could possibly have wanted. It's a 2-minute walk at most from excellent restaurants, beautiful shops and lively street life, yet the flat itself is quiet and restful. It felt like a true home away from home. And we were only a 10-minute walk from major attractions such as the Alcazar. I would stay at Beatriz's flat again in a heartbeat.
Beatriz was unable to meet us with the key when we arrived, but the friend to whom she delegated the task met us promptly and was friendly, kind and thorough in showing us how things worked. Even though I don't speak much Spanish and Beatriz and her friend don't speak much English, we were able to communicate well. We did meet Beatriz before leaving; she was warm and gracious, and the flat reflects her style of hospitality.
