The best thing this apartment has going for it is it’s location. It is on a quiet side street but is literally 1 minute away from the cathedral in one direction and fabulous restaurants in the other direction. We walked everywhere in Seville and this apartment was a fantastic location to base ourselves.
There were however, some drawbacks which led me to give it a 3 star rating.
1. Cleanliness and maintenance is lacking. There were bugs including some large cockroaches (which I understand is to be expected in a warm urban environment), many cupboards and racers are broken, walls are dirty, baseboards broken, couch cushions are kind of wrecked etc. etc.
2. It’s smaller than the other 3 bedroom apartments we rented in Spain. The master bedroom is generous, the other two bedrooms are small but functional, but the living room only has seating for 4 people despite sleeping arrangements for 6
3. Communication was prompt but we really weren’t oriented to the apartment and even basic information like where to take garbage out was not provided (and the answer was not obvious, often requiring carrying the bags for a block or more - but understandable in an old city like Seville)
4. There was LOUD construction in the apartment directly next door to us, generally starting at 0830 in the morning - which is early if you’re up late as supper doesn’t generally happen until 9pm here. The rental company didn’t offer any compensation for this, and did not make an effort to address this in any way when I contacted them. I totally get that this is out of their control, but their response was fairly dismissive and definitely impacted our enjoyment of the apartment.
Overall we enjoyed our stay here, but did feel that there is better value to be found in such a lovely city.
