The communication with Pilar and her daughter Rocio was excellent. When we arrived at the location, Rocio was there to let us in. She also provided useful information about such things as good bars and restaurants to go to.
The apartment was nicely appointed and just what we need for 4 people (4 bedrooms!) There was a little supermarket 15 mins walk away – and also a little café for breakfast and other restaurants for tapas etc.
We caught the bus into town everyday (we bought a 3 day bus card) which took around 30-40 mins. However, it would be easy to hire a bike or scooter too, as there are many bike/scooter routes around the city, where users can be safe from the traffic. Some nights we caught an Uber home, which was really cheap..around 10 Euros.
The city is a joy....with something for everything. My kids disappeared most days on Scooters..whilst myself and my Dad mooched around the city, visting museums and having lots of coffee breaks! The only place I didnt visit was the Spa....so will be back!
