Rocio's place made our 3 day stay in Seville and a visit to Feria de Abril absolutely lovely. If we stayed in central Seville, we never would have discovered this beautiful neighborhood. The place was very homey and relaxing. Upon getting dropped off by Taxi, Rocio's father met us and gave a full tour of the apartment and the building's amenities.
I can't stress enough how perfect the location is: It is right next to the main entrance point to the Triana neighborhood and is surrounded by famous landmarks like Callejon de la Inquisition just outside the window, Mercado de Triana next door, calle Betis and a riverwalk underneath the Bridge of Triana just outside. Just across the bridge of Triana is the famous Mercado Lonja del Barranco which has a dozen of different prepared food stalls, as well as the famous Plaza del Toros. Wonderful, old cafes and tapas bars are all within a few steps of the front door of the building. We took advantage of the kitchen, grocery shopping for eggs, jamon Iberia, and fresh oranges at the market to cook for breakfast each day. We were able to pack light for our 2 week trip through Spain by taking advantage of the washing machine and then hanging our clothes out on the secured, sunny rooftop to line dry. My fiancé and I would absolutely stay here again when we return one day to Seville.
Thank you Rocio!
