The combination of Carmen and her apartment represent one of the best experiences and best values we have had through airbnb. The apartment is better and bigger than it appears in the photos. It has recently been completely remodeled; everything is new, beautiful, and functional. We were Carmen's second guests at this apartment (she has one other apartment). The apartment is thoughtfully furnished and well supplied with new, perfectly clean linens and towels. The bed is new, queen-sized, and very comfortable. The entire apartment is so spotlessly clean that if your mother saw it, she would want to steal Carmen's housekeeper.
The location is central and very convenient for walking to almost anywhere you might want to go in Sevilla. (Be sure to go up on the roof for a nice view of Sevilla.) And it is quiet--if you've stayed in other places in Spain you will realize how important this is. We are light sleepers, and our sleep suffered in several places in Spain, but not at Carmen's.
Carmen is charming, informative, and responded immediately to every communication or request we made. She has great recommendations for restaurants (Baco cooked one of the best meals we had during our two weeks in Spain). Carmen is friendly and helpful, but not intrusive. We highly recommend Carmen and her apartment.
Tip: Be sure to try the ice cream at Bolas, just 30 meters from the apartment's front door. We believe it is the best ice cream we have ever eaten, and we have put a lot of effort into finding the world's best ice creams. It is even better than our favorite gelato in Italia.
