Our reception at the Larana Apartment 1 was initially a bit shaky as the apartment was not ready when my husband and I arrived, but we were able to leave our luggage while the apartment was cleaned and came back in 1 hour. Carlos welcomed us at the apartment and was very helpful in giving us directions and tips for our stay in Seville. He also arranged for a taxi to pick us up at the end of our stay.

The apartment was as described online: clean, modern and functional. The beds were comfortable. There were plenty of linens. The two terraces were really nice, one with a spectacular view looking south towards the cathedral and tower. Coffee was provided for the morning espresso. We arrived at the start of a heat wave and must say that the air conditioning worked very well and silently. The apartment is on Calle Larana, a rather busy street with bus lines and noisy traffic, but at night the shutters helped to muffle the street noise and was not a problem. A few things in the apartment could use some attention such as the showerhead holder and the awning mechanism on the terrace. The apartment is on the 6th floor. The building has an elevator.

This a very well-located apartment, close to the “Mushroom”, most all the sights and great shopping. We walked everywhere and only took the bus to get to the train station. The apartment is a good value, especially for a family. We were quite happy with our stay at this apartment.
