The apartment is exactly as shown on the airbnb site. It was clean and well-suited for our needs--I was conducting research at the Archive of the Indies, and my husband and father-in-law had fun sight-seeing. The location is beyond perfect. There is an eatery around the corner from the apartment, and several more are located within walking distance of the flat--the tapas and tinto de verano con lemon (a popular drink in Spain) are to die for! As a dear friend accurately stated, "Life in Seville is lived on the streets." It is not uncommon to see families out and about at 10pm. Be aware that there are several places that close during their siesta (12-2ish), but most of the restaurants and shops remain open. Also, you are within 15 to 20 minutes walking distance of the Cathedral, the Alcazar, the Metropol Parasol, etc. I will caution you to be prepared to get lost a few times during your stay. The streets in Seville are like an intricate labyrinth, but don't worry, within a day or two you will easily find your way around. Take comfortable shoes, because you will do a LOT of walking--the scenery is worth it. Also, the locals dress well--even the vagrants--so you may want to elevate your wardrobe a bit. I wore business casual to the archive each day, and I fit in nicely with the locals. Jeans and shorts are acceptable, but you may want to avoid wearing flip flops with your outfit--it easily identifies you as a tourist. Needless to say, we enjoyed our time in Seville, and we felt safe the entire time we were there. The downside to the apartment, if you want to call it that, was the lack of an elevator--the two story trek up the stairs was hard on my father-in-law (he has bad knees)--but we viewed the stairs as a great form of exercise to work off the food we ate throughout the day, which worked for us. In the master bedroom, we could not flush toilet paper down the toilet; however, the bathroom in the hall worked fabulously. Also, the showers are bit small--I'm a size 8/10 and I had sufficient room to navigate washing my hair and shaving my legs, but my husband and father-in-law felt a little cramped in the shower. YOU MUST REMEMBER that most of the homes in Seville are rather old, so it is reasonable to expect a few minor inconveniences. On the other hand, the upside to the apartment is the dishwasher, the washing machine, and the air-conditioning units, which were a life saver! You will have to dry your clothes on clothes lines located on the roof--it reminded me of my childhood in Argentina, so it really wasn't a big deal for me or my husband. We actually enjoyed hanging clothes together, and we felt safe leaving them up there to dry in the Seville heat. Again, the apartment has air conditioning, which is a MUST during the summer...
