Barbara was very warm and welcoming, providing both invaluable local knowledge and interesting tourist info, maps, etc. The apartment itself was exactly as described, if not better, and was perfectly located as a hub for sightseeing, shopping, eating & drinking and making daily excursions out to surrounding areas such as Cordoba. A tip would be to take some earplugs however as it is very central and the Spanish late night culture may get a bit noisy for some, though this wasn't a problem for us. We would easily recommend this apartment to anyone wanting to be in the heart of Spanish culture and wouldn't hesitate in staying here again in future.
