Jose's "penthouse" apartment has some good points that set it apart from other BnB properties. It is quiet and has a large terrace that is great for breakfasting on (or for having pre-dinner drinks on) and for drying clothes on (esp. with the current 37 degree weather). The room is also spacious, clean and equipped with most things travellers need, importantly a washing machine. The air-con did a great job cooling the place down. Another welcomed point was the fact that Jose spent quite a bit of time settling us in, familiarising us with the neighbouring area and even organising a Flamenco performance for us to visit. It was a great recommendation! The location is also quite good, being close to restaurants, bars and shopping areas.
On the negative side, it's three floors up with no lift, so carrying a heavy suitcase up the 57 stairs is understandably not fun. This may not be an issue for some but might be a serious consideration for others. Also, only a thin curtain separates the bedroom from the sunny morning terrace, so getting to sleep late is a challenge.
All in all, it was a pleasant place to stay at.
