The apartment, location and price are outstanding. Although the photo's online are great, it's one of those rare times when they don't do the apartment the full justice it deserves. It is a beautiful home from home and I could easily have stayed there forever, rather than just 3 nights.
The decoration, style and cleanliness were amazing and me and my partner absolutely loved staying there. Although there was only 2 of us, it easily caters for 4.
The whole process from reserving the apartment, arriving in Sevilla and then calling Markus to meet us as the apartment to let us in and provide us the keys was super super efficient. Everything went like clockwork and we had no hic-up's, problems or delays at all.
We arrived via Bus at Prado de San Sebastien and after calling Markus to confirm our arrival, we took a taxi from outside the station which took about 10mins to arrive at the destination (even in rush hour traffic) and cost €10 (bargain).
Our host was already waiting for us at the front door and kindly let us in, showed us the apartment and all the various information and then left us to enjoy the weekend. Super efficient and very useful manuals/information/tourist guides within the apartment. The area is terrific. Super friendly and super safe. We didn't feel wary or intimidated at all.
The location of the apartment is unbeatable. You're in walking distance to everything!
Although the noisy and busy Plaza Alameda de Hercules is literally a 30 second walk, you cannot hear it from the apartment. In fact, the apartment was super peaceful and quiet. There are tons of great bars and restaurants here, plus tons more all within easy walking distance.
It is barely a 10-15 minute to the centre of town (Cathedral and La Girada area) and a lovely walk at that. We didn't need to take public transport when we were there.
On our return journey home, we just walked along Calle Lumbreras, in the direction of the river to the main road, Calle Torneo, where we crossed the road, to hail a cab to take us back to the bus station at Prado de San Sebastien. I think the fare was €8 and took 10 mins (again, in the rush hour traffic but morning this time).
The next time we visit Sevilla, we will definitely stay here again!
