Very unique and beautiful property! Had a wonderful stay and would happily return. Location is also great - restaurants are steps away and the market is a very short walk.
We loved the location, close to everything, short walk to central market. Host is very helpful and available for any issues.. quiet on the top floor with some nice outdoor space Apartment is trendy and beautiful.

Juan is an exceptional host and the apartment is clean and in a marvelous area of Valencia. Step out the doors into 500 years of history. Juan gave us a map with key sites to see at check in, and the apartment is fully furnished with all necessities and many other thoughtful amenities! Note that there are steep steps in this historic building to get to the apartment and no lift so those with small children or large bags should be aware. The balcony overlooking the church is amazing, and we enjoyed having the Central Market within a 5 minute walk. We truly felt like we experienced the beating heart of Valencia and cannot wait to return!
Our host was very helpful. Great location. Quiet and cosy apartment

Enjoyed our stay here very much. Comfortable apartment with everything you need. Very walkable. Our host assisted with a map and recommendations to get us started. A wonderful choice in a wonderful city.
Juan was very helpful and the apartment is lovely. Easy walking distance to many sightseeing locations. Nice vibe in the neighborhood. It is on the 4th floor, with no elevator, so won’t work if you are mobility impaired. We would definitely rent again if our travels bring us back to Valencia.
A fantastic place to stay and explore Valencia, lovely bars and restaurants just a stones throw, along with the cathedral and other major tourist attractions. Juan was brilliant with his communication before we arrived and whilst we stayed there and couldn’t do enough to help us.
Lovely quirky flat really close to everything. We didn’t need to cook but all the basics are there. Comfortable to sit in the evening. Juan recommended local places to eat which were very good.
We had a great stay at Juan’s apartment. The location is fantastic and it is very well maintained and comfortable.
There are a lot of stairs but as it’s a penthouse this should be expected.
Thanks Juan for your local advice and being a welcoming host.
This apartment is in a prime location and was incredibly well equipped. Our host was wonderful and always available to answer questions. Keep in mind there is no lift/elevator so there are a lot of stairs to the 4th floor but I didn't mind at all. I would stay in this great location and comfortable apartment again.
We had such a lovely holiday in this beautiful quirky apartment. It is tastefully furnished with a mix of traditional pieces and more modern items. It could not be better located as most places of interest are nearby. We ate out a lot but cooked a few meals in the kitchen which is small but well equipped. I have a fear of heights but managed the sloping terrace, albeit cautiously, and although well past retirement age the 67 steps up to the 4th floor did not bother us. As there were just two of us, we used the upstairs larger bedroom but kept our clothes in the downstairs bedroom wardrobe to avoid taking our case up the spiral staircase. Thank you Juan for this lovely apartment. Highly recommended.

Best thing about this place is the location! The place was nice but air conditioning was a major issue. The main bedroom upstairs in the loft felt like an oven. We contacted the host for help and he said he came to change filters or something but it didn’t help at all. The air was set to 23c but never reached lower than 27c downstairs or upstairs. Not a place for summer heat. Most times it was cooler outside than inside. Basic things like trash bags weren’t provided or laundry soap. Lastly, If you don’t like stairs this isn’t the place to stay, very narrow stairs to reach the 4th floor, not so much an issue for us but if you’re carrying stuff up there or have little ones it gets tough.
This was our first time in Valencia and the location of this apartment was outstanding - right in the middle of the old city. Being on the top floor, the view from the windows and especially the deck were fantastic and we loved it. The whole place was great for our needs. It was clean and comfortable. The kitchen is really small but we didn't cook there, so it met our needs.
The 'main' bedroom is up a flight of spiral stairs which might be an issue for some. We didn't use the downstairs bedroom (which has separate smaller beds), but the upstairs bed was very comfortable. The deck is rather sloped (it is technically a roof top) so might make some a bit nervous but has a wall at the edge (so safe!) and two very nice chairs. We really enjoyed sitting out there at night.
It should be noted that the apartment is at the top of several steep flights of stairs and there is no elevator. We were prepared for that (although it was quite the climb) and it was fine for us.
The owner was great and very responsive... everything was smooth with check-in/out. We'd gladly stay there again!
We really enjoyed our stay here! Juan was so kind to let us check in much earlier and mark off things to do on a map for us. The location is amazing with Mercado Central right down the street and all the beautiful sights and restaurants within walking distance. The stairs up are very narrow with tight turns so if you have large bags just give yourself extra time. We would definitely recommend a stay here! Thanks Juan!
This was a great place for our family of 4. Juan is a great host. The property was just as expected from the photos and is in a great location to explore the old city.
The only criticism is that the apartment is very difficult to access because of no elevator. The stairwell is steep and narrow and very difficult to navigate with oversized luggage. Great place for a couple of friends or a family with two small children and lightweight luggage.
Absolutely wonderful apartment just what we had hoped for, location was perfect nearby everything you could wish for, supermarket a 2 minute walk for food and drink, restaurants on your doorstep, 2 minutes walk to the cathedral. Very quirky apartment with an absolutely fabulous rooftop terrace which we sat on with a drink most evenings when kids had gone to bed. Should definitely recommend and will be thinking of visiting again

Fabulous apartment in Valencia
This is a wonderful, charming and very comfortable apartment right in the historic district. Very nicely decorated and equipped with everything we needed. Lots of space! Rooftop terrace is lovely. The host Juan was there to meet us and provided great suggestions for touring. Highly recommend this property!
I highly recommend this property : very convenient location in the heart of the city, very cosy, rooftop with a beautiful view !
The only thing to know is that this is on the 4th floor without elevator, even if it was not a problem for us.
Juan was also very reactive when communicating with us and shared a lot of good advice for our stay.
We had a fantastic stay at this apartment located right in the historic center of Valencia! The location couldn’t be better—you're just a short walk away from all the must-see sites, including the Central Market, beautiful plazas, and iconic landmarks. Everything is right at your doorstep, which made sightseeing a breeze!The apartment itself was clean, cozy, and comfortable. It’s on the top floor, which gives you a nice view of the surrounding area. However, note that there’s no elevator, so be prepared to carry your suitcases up the stairs. It’s a bit of a workout, but hey, it’s great practice for all the other stairs you’ll climb while exploring Valencia’s historic sites!The host was amazing—super helpful and communicative. They gave great recommendations on what to see and do in Valencia, which really helped make the trip extra special.All in all, this place is perfect for anyone who wants to stay in the heart of the city with easy access to all the attractions. The lack of an elevator is a small challenge, but the location and comfort more than make up for it. Highly recommend it!
