Maria Jose is a charming, energetic woman who has opened her huge family home to guests. The accommodations that I requested were not available, but she offered us two other rooms. The house is in a residential neighborhood, and we arrived early and were greeted by her young son. She gave him permission to let us in. We were fortunate to find easy parking on the street nearby.

My partner and I had a bedroom and bathroom apart from the main house on the second floor off a small patio. My son had a bedroom in the house and shared a bath with other guests. We had air conditioning which was nice, but my son did not. Our room was small, but charming, and all we needed for siestas and sleeping at night. It was very quiet.

There was an array of short and longer term guests staying with Maria Jose. She makes everyone feel at home. She is very kind. She offered some good suggestions for local dining and we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go along the river and into the historic sections of town. There are parks to cut through wherever you go and the shade was welcome. We walked a lot in Spain, for hours every day, and Sevilla is nice and flat!

Thank you for opening your home and heart to us, Maria Jose!
