We really enjoyed our stay in Miguel's apartment. Miguel's communication before we arrived was excellent. Unfortunately, we had a problem with the entry system on arrival. Miguel responded to our phone call within minutes, and was there quickly to put everything right and get us back on track - brilliant!

The apartment is in a superb location, only yards from the bullring, in an area with some great bars and restaurants, and a good atmosphere on the streets. It was easy to walk up to the cathedral area; the shopping centre, or down to the river. We took a bus to Macarena and Triana, but even those places are walkable, if you like a walk. The apartment itself is in a quiet back street in an oasis of calm. As many have already said in reviews, the duplex layout is 'interesting'. The spiral staircase is fine, but you have to be good on your feet and at ease with your luggage! The apartment was clean and well-presented. The basic crockery and cutlery was sufficient for our very simple needs (a quick breakfast at the start of the day and a light supper - we liked having lunch out as our main meal of the day). We never used the hob, the microwave, the washer or the dryer - but these were all there should you need. The bed/settee in the living room is more amusing than comfortable: we managed to perch there for a few minutes TV each evening! The security was very good - we felt very safe. The aircon was essential and brilliant in a May heatwave. Plentiful hot water for showering. Good to have a small toilet downstairs, too. The beds were welcome and comfortable.

If you are looking for a simple base while you explore Seville, this might be the apartment for you. We really enjoyed our stay.

Miguel was an excellent host who made our stay a great success.
