My husband and I stayed at this apartment in December/January and have already decided we’ll return - we loved the city, and this perfectly located, well-designed rooftop apartment near the edge of the old town so much.
The location is perfect: plenty of bars and restaurants, yet relatively quiet, with a decent selection of shops and small supermarkets in the surrounding streets - and the Central Market and its astonishing array of fresh produce is only a 10 minute stroll away. The main city square is only a 15 minute walk through the beautiful old town. We only used a bus once, to go to the City of Art and Sciences.
On arrival, we received a warm welcome from Francisco’s assistant Empar, who made sure we were settled in and provided us with an information sheet on what to see, where to eat, how to get there etc… When we had a teething problem with our WiFi connection, Francisco came to sort it out immediately - excellent support.
The apartment is very well-appointed. Everything was clean, and heating, air-conditioning and appliances were easy to figure out. There were teas, coffees, spices, plenty of cooking equipment, coffee machine, guide books, tourism leaflets, TV, BluRay player, stereo etc… we felt very well catered for. There was everything we needed, and more than we’d anticipated.
Three windows look out onto a sizeable balcony (with sun beds, wooden table/chairs, plants and flowers - even power sockets) with a fantastic view. Listening to the old church bells in the early evening was so relaxing.
The climb up to the 5th floor is maybe worth a mention - but we’re in our late 50s and it wasn’t a problem.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this apartment, and in the city of Valencia. Many thanks to Francisco and Empar for helping us to make our holiday in your wonderful city very special!
