What a fantastic host Maria is and what a fantastic apartment she has.
Maria met us at the apartment and spent lots of time showing us how everything worked and telling us about the area.
The apartment is superb - spacious, clean, with two balconies, a lovely, modern kitchen and an amazingly comfortable bed. It is on the second floor and there is a lift which is a big help when you've lots of luggage.
The building is part of a gated complex which has a lovely, safe community feel, with small bars, shops and two small supermarkets just a couple of minutes' walk from the apartment.
There is a huge Carrefour just ten minutes walk away.
The train station which takes you into the city centre is also just ten minutes walk away and there are plenty of buses nearby, too.
We drove to Seville and were able to find a free parking space right outside the apartment which is a real bonus.
We loved staying at Maria's apartment and would absolutely recommend it for a stay in Seville.
