This charming luminous & spacious efficiently air-conditioned second floor studio apartment is located within a charming Valenciano recently listed historic building.

4 minutes walk to the city's *'most happening' cosmo' El Carmen - *especially during nocturnal hours. Approached via resplendent Torres de Serranos. Albeit studio's location is somewhat quieter. Its seawards orientation enjoys welcoming coastal breezes offering a welcome respite. Especially after exploring the Historic city with its narrow confined & during the warm summer months, invariably quite airless streets.

Fully equipped partially updated American style kitchen. Separate fully enclosed bathroom with modern fitments. Delightful living area with four large fully opening windows (2 floor - ceiling) French style with full shutters.. Two with small balconies, which all have extremely pleasant outlooks, three enjoy outlooks over a charming leafy Convent's garden - allowing sunshine morning to late afternoon. Also access to semi-communal rooftop 16m2 terrace with charming inner city aspects. Sony micro HiFi stereo system for plug-in music streamers - best H.D sound with iPad - & no buffering! Flat screen TV, DVD player etc.

Mega powerful 4.5 Kw reverse cycle air-conditioner replaced 2024 - N.B; many similar apartments invariably offer undersized 2.5 Kw unit's - i.e; they'll take twice as long & necessitate 'maximum' setting to have any desired cooling effect! In particular those with higher ceilings.

All major motorway connections ie; Madrid, Barcelona, Alicante etc easily accessed within 10 mins via A7 & CV 35 - Easy with GPS.

See metrovalencia web-page for route planners/timetables and excellent 'bono' rates.

Outdoor Pool/ Biopark etc. Great outdoor pool set in rather exclusive lush sub-tropical gardens at Club Hipica just 5/6 mins walk in Calla Jaca. Used by Valencianos in 'the know'. Entrance fee 4.50€. Young children €2. Go for the day with a picnic. Excellent silver service standard albeit understated terraced restaurant overlooks it. Tip; Menu del dia - good value.

Valencia's finest gardens and museums which you can access readily in just 4 mins via the 'rio de cultura' City's 9km impressive Turia river gardens.

Europe's largest Bio-park for over 1000 different species in a natural setting. Easily accessed by metro within 20 mins or walk/cycle through the delightful Turia river gardens either 10 mins bike or 40 mins walk.

Beaches: Malvorossa city beach & quirky charming barrio of Cabanyal. Blue Flag bathing and a broad fine sandy beach with an excellent choice of nearby restaurants/bars. Smart terraced cafes/restaurants and cocktail/tapas bars abound the Marinas. Mediterranean city living doesn't get much better with its easy accessibility. Its excellent value and with a myriad of subtle attractions etc

El Saler glorious fine sandy beach continuing onwards as far as the eye can see with duned backdrops, scented Pines and great cycle tracks weaving throughout. Fantastic for skaters/skate borders. 'Bus-it' easily from Plaza Reina for a couple of euros @ just 10 mins walk away.

David could not have made our stay more pleasant. From the booking process to our departure. The apartment was clean and well equipped. Location was the best, literally a few minutes walk from the old town. Great stay, thank you David.

Only stay here if you want to be yelled at by the owner. The owner yelled at us because the Taxi from the train station dropped us off a half block away. He was yelling at me on the phone and kept yelling from the minute we saw him. I have never been treated that way by any owner and we have travelled 47 countries. We did not stay due to feeling threaten by this man.

Excellent location
I stayed here for one week. Everything is as pictured. Walking distance to old town. There is a bus stop right in front of the building. Three blocks from the Sagunt Tram stop. The apartment is well stocked. Very clean. It is a studio apartment, which is great for a solo traveler or couple. There is several restaurants and grocery stores within the area. David the host is excellent with communication via whatsapp. Valencia is a beautiful city with tons to offer. I hated to leave. Thanks David.

This is a lovely, bright apartment, close to everything. You can walk to the old city, bike the nearby park and take one bus to get to the beach. We loved our time in Valencia! David was a great host, easy to communicate with. We would definitely stay here again!
