Staying at Maria's place is just like staying at your cool friend's place while she is out of town. From the get go, Maria was especially communicative. She answered all our questions almost immediately and gave us all the details we needed on the various questions we had. And we had a fair few, as this was our first airbnb experience.
Let's just say that Maria has everything at her studio apartment. Things you might forget/need like a hairdryer or an iron and there was supplies of shower gel etc. She provides towels etc and there is excellent wifi so you dont need to use up your roaming data. The pictures are an accurate reflection of the flat. We didnt spend much time there as Seville is just excellent and we would only come back late. So didn't use the TV or the kitchen at all but it's all there if you wanted to cook and stay in.
We didn't meet Maria during the trip but it didnt matter as we were met by Isca her friend who showed us how everything worked from the washing machine, to the heating to the projector etc. She also gave us some tips on where to go.
During the trip we had questions and Maria gave great recommendations on Flamenco and things to do that weren't as touristy, giving a real flavour of Seville - just like an insider's guide to Seville. Astonishingly she also provides this as well. There is a small bespoke guide that she has put together and Isca also gave us a map to help us on our way at the outset - which was very helpful for first timers prone to getting lost!
I'd echo everything positive that all the other reviewers have said - great shower, food and supplies at the ready, towels etc etc. I'd also so that it's a great location. You're close enough to the centre without being right in it which gives an authentic feel to Seville. 5 minutes walk and you are at the shopping district. And 15 minutes your are at Real Alcazar and the Cathedral. And that's what Seville is like. You will want to walk everywhere - and that's the only way. For someone working from Seville for a period of time, this is a great spot, and for a couple wanting to see the city, it's an excellent base. If we came back just the two of us again, we'd stay here again and I'd recommend anyone looking for a clean, trendy, home away from home, close to the scene to stay here.
Maria - thanks for making our first airbnb experience an amazing one. I don't think I'll stay in a hotel again!
