We stayed with Irina and her husband for two days during our visit to Sevilla. Although we stayed at other Airbnb places thereafter, our stay with Irina was the best!

What struck us both was how personable, thoughtful and kind she and Misha are. When we arrived, Misha accompanied us to our car (parked four blocks away) to help us with our luggage. He insisted on carrying our suitcases up the stairs and then down again at the end of our trip. And Irina welcomed us with tea and cake and was full of useful information about the city and what was truly worth seeing in the short time we had.

That evening, after a long day of sightseeing, my knee was very sore and Irina did everything she could to help me: a warm compress, a scarf to tie around my knee, and kindness. We enjoyed our breakfast sessions with her, where we had a chance to chat and to learn more about the city and the culture. She gave us excellent advice regarding the best place to go to a flamenco show and was kind enough to call the Flamenco museum to book tickets for us.

The apartment is very bright, clean and comfortable and located such that it is easy to get to the main sights either by bus or on foot. Just a couple of hundred meters away there are all sorts of restaurants and cafes. In our experience, however, it is the hosts who make an Airbnb stay truly memorable. Irina and her husband are people who make you feel very welcome without being intrusive. You’ll be in good hands at their place!!
