Maria was extremely welcoming even going so far as to help me find the residence once I was in Sevilla and there was a bottle of bubbly and some fruit waiting for me in case I wanted a nightcap. She stayed up and chatted and was generally a pure delight! All throughout the trip she included me in as much of the house life as I wanted and also just let me be in the delightful third floor with balcony.
The portion of the house I rented was the third floor: a single and a double occupancy bedroom, a full bathroom and a delightful balcony. (perfect for sunning and yoga )
The neighborhood was delightful for walking, running, bike riding, going to bars, getting taxis, or public transport. A section of the bike trail was one narrow street over and a great way to see the city.
