Appreciation on 15/02/2007 by Mrs monica M. her stay 09 to 12 February 2007
beautiful big apartment, clean, calm, nice equipped kitchen, not in the old city but in a location from which it is easy to reach the old city, the ciudad de las sciencias and the port.
Will you advise to a friend ? Oui
Appreciation Cl. Geldof, Netherlands "The apartment is easy to find, clean, large, bright, quiet, nicely decorated and very convenient. It is in a lively neighbourhood of Ruzaffa. The kitchen is perfectly equipped!!! In the neighbourhood is a large, well equipped supermarket and there is the Mercado Rusaffa with fresh fish and vegatables. The location of the apartment is situated very well. You can do everything by feet (to the Oceanografic as well to the Museum Belle Artes). And to go out in the evening there are several very cosy restaurants and bars (just a few steps away)!!! When you are 4 persons, two have to sleep in room on a couch, which might be a little inconvenient. On the background the sound of the elevator and sewerpipes (but you get used to it)."
