This isn't one of those sad purchased-to-AirBnB-it places with one thin white towel, exactly one blanket, and a coffee maker but no coffee or filters.
Pablo's place is throwback to AirBnB's glory days when *homes* were rented that had all the trappings of a human residence. Umbrella? It's in the closet. Salt and oil? Sure, there's also some eggs and milk. Shampoo and conditioner? Here's a fresh tube of toothpaste too . Extra towels, blankets, and all the cozy things that we buy for our own homes. I was beyond thrilled to find some cute desserts, fruit, oatmeal(!), real coffee, and other lovely little extras.
It was immaculately clean and wonderfully comfortable. The wifi was great for working remotely, and the neighborhood, building, and apartment all felt super safe for a woman traveling alone. Pablo went above and beyond in offering recommendations and ensuring my trip was going well.
The location is great in that it's a bit away from the touristy downtown in the direction of the airport. That's also a disadvantage-- the main attractions of Sevilla are 30-50 minutes' walk one way. Pablo recommended Sevici to me, and that's how I moved around all week. Unlimited bike rides for 1 week = 14 euros, and there's literally hundreds of stations around town (2 right besides the apartment). Great investment for saving 50% of the cost of lodging downtown. It cuts your travel time in half, and it's fun because the city is covered happy green bike lanes. [hint: leave the ID field blank when you sign up in the app]
Like just about any building in hot climate regions, this one is lightly insulated, and you can hear the neighbors' presence. Everyone seems to be aware of this and is respectful, particularly at night. Wherever you stay in Sevilla, it might be a good idea to have a pair of earplugs just in case.
