This apartment was AWESOME. PERFECT FOR KIDS.
The biggest surprise was that it is literally right on the Alameda de Hercules, a giant pedestrian plaza that is incredibly vibrant at all times of the day with little tapas bars, restaurants, cafes that overlook the plaza which has two big playgrounds. This area is not touristy and, in my opinion, was much more interesting and 'real' than the more 'famous' parts of the city near the Alcazar. Manuel met us in person and gave very specific recommendations about what to do in the neighborhood and the city more generally. I highly recommend this place.
