Marina’s apartment was beautiful and even better than the pictures. The location was excellent in terms of being near major attractions. The apartment is louder than I expected both from the pedestrian street below and people in the hallways going to their apartments. It seems to just be a result of how the apartment was built and the great location, but definitely a consideration for any light sleepers. We were greeted at checkin by one of Marina’s friends who gave us a helpful overview of Sevilla including details of the Feria and delicious tapa recommendations (el pinton up the block was DELICIOUS and doesn’t close for siesta). Thanks Marina!
