The apartment was clean and modern with everything you need. It is in the Macarena district with the church just in front and the chiming bells from time to time. It was in easy walking distance to all the areas you want to visit in Seville. We didn't meet Rafa but the staff at the Hotel near by were very helpful and answered any questions we had queries about and booked any shows we wanted to see. Their was no milk or tea or anything like that so arrive with those. Parking is 16 euros per night and free parking is very difficult to find. Overall great though and we enjoyed our stay.
