We loved staying in this neighborhood. It was less touristy and felt like there were more locals. It was an easy 10 minute walk or so from the Cathedral and the Alcazar, close shopping and some good restaurants. Also close to the buses.
The place is spacious enough. It was nice to have air-conditioning and it was very quiet. It wasn't as colorful in person. There were things that needed attention in the apartment and not enough linens. Broken drawers, no batteries in the remote for the a/c and the shower head wouldn't stay up.
I was under the impression that we would be met by our host but that did not happen until we called him. He sent someone down to let us in. I was hoping she'd speak some English since it was in the listing but with my sister's bit of Spanish, we got the main points across.
