We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Maria's. The apartment is located a 15-20 minute walk from central Sevilla, but the walk is pleasant and the area feels very safe, even late at night. We barely saw Maria because we had very busy days in Sevilla (so much to see and do!) but she was very friendly and even gave us a free upgrade to a larger room!! Unfortunately we don't speak Spanish, but Maria spoke enough English to be able to communicate all relevant information. We highly recommend staying at Maria's!
