Carmen's apartment is our recomendation for a base from which to see Sevilla. It is located on a car-restricted lane, making it a tranquil site, and it is well within walking distance of the alcazar and cathedral. The kitchen and bathrooms are quintissentially modern, the living room is spacious and bright, the bedrooms are of good size, and all is exquisitely clean. The apartment is augmented with a very agreeable, private rooftop patio, where we twice enjoyed wine and a light dinner under soft lights and dark sky. Carmen is very solicitous of her renters to see they have a good experience in her apartment and in Sevilla. We used the apartment to take a day trip to Cordoba, which was just the amount of time we needed there. We also recommend the nearby restaurant "Las Piletas " , if at a loss for where to dine, for the quality of its food and reasonableness of price. In addition, do not overlook lunch at the culinary school at Zaragoza 20: three tasty art-piece plates for 14 euros.
