Carlos was very communicative, met us and showed us around the apartment. The neighborhood is fantastic -- safe, lively, full of history if you take the time to visit the Ceramic Museum, Castillo San Jorge, and the ceramic shops in the area. But we also just enjoyed walking the streets, noticing the beautiful tilework everywhere, and trying out nearby restaurants. We especially liked the restaurant Las Golondrillas. It's an easy walk across the bridge to downtown and the cathedral -- we even walked to the Plaza de Espanol. It's great that there's a drying rack and a warm towel rack -- for getting things dry!
