HOLIDAY LETTING OR TEMPORARY RENTAL APARTMENT IN VALENCIA, RUZAFA DISTRICT

31 Comments

1. The apartments owner, Begoña is welcoming and a warm personality. She is easy to contact if you have any issues. The apartment is pretty, airy and light at the top of the building. With 2 small balconies. There is fast wifi and locally there are many good restaurants and bars. The apartment is within 5-10 minutes walk of the main centre in an interesting district. As the apartment is at the top of the building, street noise is not a problem. The one negative for us was that the air conditioning is not in the bedrooms and it gets very warm at night in the summer – it was too hot for us to sleep.

2. Lovely apartment in the lively neighbourhood of Ruzafa. Begona is a great host who is helpful and friendly. Have stayed here twice now and I’m sure we’ll be back.

3. This stay was an incredible experience. The apartment is in a perfect location in the heart of Ruzafa, near wonderful restaurants and an amazing market. The check-in and check-out process were incredibly smooth. Berangere responded to me about the apartment within minutes of me sending a request and made the stay as easy as possible for my family. The breeze in the living room when all of the windows are open is amazing – it makes it a little hard to explore Ruzafa, because you just want to sit on the couch and enjoy it! I would absolutely stay here again and will recommend without hesitation to anyone I know visiting Valencia.
   Berangere – thank you so much for being so accommodating at the last minute for me and my family! We can’t express how much we appreciate it and your prompt communication. Thank you again!

4. This apartment is in one of the best neighbourhoods in Valencia, Ruzafa is a charming and lively part of Valencia full of shops, restaurants and bars. The apartment is situated right next door to a market that has some of the best bakeries, fresh meats, seafood, fruits and vegetables making it very convenient if you wanted to cook. The apartment is very breezy and has 3 balconies perfect for a morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. The beds and couches are all very comfortable allowing you to recharge and go exploring!

5. The apartment was exactly as Berangere described… light, beautiful, and lovely. Close to restaurants, shops, and the Russafa Market, and grocery stores. I could walk to the Palau de Les Arts Reina Sofia easily for work, and walk into the city center in about 20-25 minutes. Her friends Begonia and Omar were so kind checking me in, and giving me directions to nearby stores, and helping with cabs, buses, bikes, etc. The apartment kitchen was fully equipped and Berangere had provided everything I could need, even laundry detergent. The balconies gave a gorgeous view of the rooftops of Russafa, and provided a refreshing breeze throughout the apartment on hotter days. I had a wonderful time, and would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone traveling to Valencia. I hope to return, and would love to stay there again. Valencia was so beautiful and this apartment just made my stay there perfect. HIGHLY recommended!!! 🙂 MANY thanks, Berangere!!! 🙂

6. Great communication with Berangere and Omar prior to our arrival, with useful information on how to get to the apartment, things to do and restaurants in the area. We were met at the apartment by Begona, who explained that the apartment had belonged to her grandmother. The apartment has been beautifully decorated and furnished and exactly as shown in the photographs. Very well equiped kitchen, with basic provisions (tea, coffee sugar, olive oil etc), and the large Valencia oranges provided made wonderful orange juice! Beds were very comfortable, with a good choice of pillows. We did however find the main bedroom quite noisy and we could hear a neighbours TV in the early hours of the morning, so we moved into the twin room, which was much quieter. Plenty of storage, towels and linen. The balcony catches the morning sun, and perfect for breakfast, while watching the world go by. The internet connection is extremely good and we had no problems connecting to it. Ruzafa is a lovely area, and the apartment is right in the centre of Ruzafa. The daily market is just around the corner, with a fabulous choice of fruit, vegetables, meat, fish, cheese, oluves etc and several supermarkets nearby. Good selection of café’s and bars also nearby. Very easy to get into the centre of Valencia, and the Turia gardens too. Great place to stay to get a true feel for Valencia. We stayed during Las Fallas, so it was quite noisy, with fireworks being set off during the day and night!! Would love to come back, but maybe not during Las Fallas!!

7. Un super appart dans un super quartier! Prise en charge professionnelle, appartement remis à neuf, cuisine bien équipée, salon agréable, chambres spacieuses et confortables… Très bien situé pour explorer Valence, que ce soit la vieille ville ou la cité des sciences (avec le bus). Marché couvert quotidien à un pâté de maison. Placette avec un petit tobbogan au rdc. Plein de restaurants.

8. We had a lovely stay at this apartment. We are a family of 5 and things worked out really well. It is located in Ruzafa where you can find everything; bars, restaurants but also a playground in front of the building and the local market around the corner. The place is clean and cosy. The owner is very nice and relaxed and our communication was perfect. Quick replies, nice pickup was arranged (compliments to Paco, our driver) , just perfect. I highly recommend this place. Kind regards.

9. De verhuurder heeft ons zeer warm welkom geheten. Ze heeft ons alles verteld en uitgelegd. Het zag er zeer schoon en gezellig uit! Het appartement ligt heel centraal in Ruzafa. Einde van de straat de grote dagelijkse markt, waar we vaak sinaasappels haalde (heel goedkoop!) Beneden in de straat een fantastisch restaurant, echt een aanrader : Torre de Utiel. 10 min. lopen van het park, 10 min. lopen van het centrum.

10. Superb location, very clean appartment, spacious bedrooms,….. Everything you need for a perfect citytrip in Valencia! Berangere is the perfect host, it’s clear that she puts a lot of love in this place!
    We loved the fact everything was clean! Perfect location! Nothing to improve 🙂

11. Leuk appartement in het levendige Ruzafa. We werden afgehaald aan het vliegveld en hartelijk verwelkomd door Begoña. Alles was proper en netjes, veel informatie aanwezig en zeer goede WiFi. Proper en netjes zoals op de foto’s Duidelijke afspraken met de verhuurder. Vanop het balkon kun je van de zon genieten en het Spaanse leven bekijken. De slaapkamers hebben rolluiken en dubbel glas (voor lichte slapers raad ik oordopjes aan). Vlakbij vind je een overdekte markt en tientallen koffiehuizen & restaurantjes. Op minder dan een kwartier ben je te voet in het oude centrum. Of je kan vlakbij de bus nemen.

12. Our time in Valencia was amazing! The flat was just as shown in the photos and it was perfect for our family of 5. We enjoyed walking to the market each day, as it was just around the corner. The location is great; a bus stop right outside as well as a short walk to the train station. The owner was there to greet us upon arrival and she gave us great tips about things to do in and around the city. The flat was very clean and stocked with a few cooking essentials and oranges of course!

13. We received a very warm welcome from Berangere who gave us a wealth of information and helpful tips about what to see and do in your beautiful city. The apartment is very clean, comfortable, light and well equipped. We found everything we needed. We enjoyed lovely weather for nearly all of the week and wore T-shirts every day – it just rained a little one morning. Being on a bus route was useful, making it very easy to visit both the city and the coastline.It was great to be in the centre of the city with good access to the sights and the markets and also able to visit the beaches. In Valencia you have several types of holiday in one city. We can thoroughly recommend a holiday in Valencia and in this apartment.

14. Sehr schöne Wohnung, alles Bestens vorgefunden. Jederzeit wieder!!

15. We were met at the apartment and shown around. Apartment was absolutely lovely, really spacious and extremely well equipped. Great neighbourhood, lots of cafes for us and playgrounds for our toddler. The market at the end of the street was amazing and we visited almost daily! Easy to get to the old town and the beach. Thank you very much for making us feel so welcome, we would highly recommend.

16. We were met by Begoña, who owns the apartment. She gave us a lovely welcome and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. The apartment was beautiful and the photos are very accurate, we sat out on the balconies most mornings and evenings soaking up the atmosphere of the streets below. We loved our stay there and will definitely go back the next time we go to Valencia. The local area was perfect for us and there were a lot of great bars and cafes, it was a short walk to the old historic centre, a short bike ride to he beach and the local and brilliant market was moments away.

17. Een geweldig appartement in een levendige buurt, dichtbij centrum en op fietsafstand van het strand. Het appartement is van alle gemakken voorzien en zeer schoon. Berangere heeft er echt werk van gemaakt. Een aanrader.

18. We’ve just returned from a week long stay in Begona’s beautiful apartment in Rusafa. Both Omar and Begona gave us a very warm welcome and were super efficient and helpful in dealing with any queries we had throughout our stay.
    The apartment is really tastefully styled and spotlessly clean. Being on the top floor of the building there was a welcome soft breeze throughout, which was a lovely escape from the heat. We also loved the cute little balcony which overlooked all the local bustle below. Nothing hectic, or noisy, just leisurely people watching!
    Begona and Omar were perfect hosts, thank you both so much.

19. the location of the apartment is great, close to many shops, the local market and just a few minutes away to the old town. It also has a nice view on the square. The place was clean, the living room very confortable and the owner was very sweet and funny! It was the perfect place for us to discover Valencia.

20. Everything was perfect! The apartment is in a nice neighborhood and very central. There are many nice restaurants, bars and boutiques around. Also there is a cute market with fresh fruits, vegetables and spanish food which we can totally recommend. We felt very comfortable from the very beginning and had a warmly welcome! The apartment was super clean and we had everything we needed. We will come back soon! 🙂
    Everything was perfect! We felt very comfortable at the apartment and Valencia in general is a very beautiful city. Thank you for having us!

21. Teníamos un apartamento muy agradable en el animado Ruzafa. El apartamento estaba limpio, bien amueblado, con camas muy bien, cocina bien equipada y cuarto de baño. Desde Valencia Ruzafa se puede explorar muy bien a pie o en autobús. El contacto con nuestro agente Berangere también fue muy agradable. Ella era fácilmente accesible para preguntas, etc. Me dio una paz de la mente. El único inconveniente que encontró el olor en el baño y la cocina. Fumo ocasionalmente su acondicionador de alcantarillado, al igual que en la calle a veces humo (pozos de registro secos). Hemos tenido una gran semana y ser feliz!

22. Le logement est exactement tel qu’il est décrit et tel qu’il peut paraître sur les photos. Cet appartement est très confortable et très propre, situé dans un quartier très agréable. La proximité du marché, des commerces et des transports le rend extrêmement pratique. Bérangère est une personne charmante et très disponible qui nous a très bien reçus. Je reviendrai avec toute ma famille dès que l’occasion se présentera.
    Tout. Le quartier, le confort de l’appartement.
    Le faible débit d’eau a rendu nos douches un peu plus longues que la normale, mais vraiment rien de très gênant, juste pour que vous soyez au courant.

23. The apartment is lovely – really spacious, comfortable, clean, well stocked and nicely decorated. We really liked the neighbourhood – it’s about a 10 minute walk to the old town, surrounded by loads of little bars, restaurants and interesting shops and a great local market (like the one in the old town but quieter!). Lots of locals and no tourists. Berangere gave us a very warm welcome and a ton of information about Valencia which was really helpful in planning our trip – all the wonderful things we did were down to her advice and she really went out her way to help us. Valencia is a wonderfully relaxed city with lots to do and see – enjoy!

24. Bérangère è stata molto carina e gentile. Ci ha dato, al nostro arrivo, le informazioni che le abbiamo richiesto e altre che potevano essere utili per vivere la città. Si è resa disponibile per ogni esigenza. L’appartamento è come da descrizione, molto pulito, ordinato, luminoso, accogliente. Sono presenti tutte le cose di cui si può aver bisogno per il soggiorno. La cucina, il bagno e le camere sono accoglienti e ben forniti. L’appartamento è silenzioso. Il quartiere in cui esso si trova è molto bello e fornito sia di negozi che ristoranti.La fermata dell’autobus è vicina e quindi anche gli spostamenti coi mezzi pubblici sono facili. Con grande semplicità si può raggiungere la stazione nord, il centro storico e i giardini del Turia. E’ stato un piacevole soggiorno e se ne avremo occasione ritorneremo volentieri. Assolutamente da consigliare.

25. Berangere is a good host – easy to communicate, she was quick to answer all questions, provided info about events/places to eat/neighbourhood. Beautiful flat – clean, quiet, light, warm (it was a cold week when we were there); comfortable beds; good location – we walked to the Old Town and City of Science and Art. Market – just around the corner. Favourite gadget in the house – orange juicer 🙂 We bought 5kg of fresh oranges in the market for 3 Euros and enjoyed perfect orange juice every morning. Thank you!

26. Hartelijke verwelkoming, mooi appartement, centraal gelegen. Er was een kleine storing, zeer snel en adequaat opgelost. Super gelegen, 10 min.lopen tot centrum, 10 naar Turia park, mooie Mercada om de hoek, veel eetgelegenheden en barretje in de buurt. Super plek in Valencia.

27. We had a perfect time in Valencia and this lovely apartment. It was just like the photo’s, clean, the equipment in the kitchen was complete, even with coffee, sugar an other things like toiletpaper. It made us feel like home. It’s close to restaurants, shops, supermarket, and in walking distance to Turia Park and the city center. Berangere was very helpful. She emailed and texted some great tips, about the las fallas festival, restaurants, beach and nice places to visit with our daughter of 3. We arrived in the morning and left in the evening, this was no problem. I can really recommend this great place!

28. Mi experiencia con Berangere ha sido muy positiva, ha sido muy amable y ha estado pendiente de nuestra estancia y comodidad.

29. Ondanks 2 uur vertraging met Transavia, werden wij erg hartelijk ontvangen door de ouders van de eigenaar. De volgende dag is Berangere gekomen en heeft ons tips gegeven over de wijk Ruzafa en de stad. Ligging van het appartement is uitstekend, dicht bij Mercat Ruzafa, restaurantjes en openbaar vervoer. De medebewoners van het appartementencomplex zijn evenzo vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Een mooie plek om van de stad Valencia te genieten.

30. Great apartment, very clean with nice location. It looks exactly like in pictures. If you are looking for a place to stay in Valencia, it is definitely great choice. Berangere was very helpful and professional.

31. Bérangère is the best possible host I could have hoped for. She was very intent on making sure we knew our way around and gave us many suggestions of restaurants and things to do. Whenever I had any questions she was super helpful. We spent two weeks here in Valencia. The apartment was lovely and just as it looked in the photos. The position was also very convenient to everything within a close walk to the center and lots of shopping. There was also a local fresh market which was authentically Spanish with no touristy things around. And there were three supermarkets in the vicinity. It also was so well served by a bus just down the street which brought us directly to a very lovely unspoiled beach. There were also buses just in front which took us to the City of Arts and Sciences and to some malls. The neighborhood of Ruzafa had many trendy cafe’s and restaurants and was so nice and well lit at night. I had no problem with letting my two teen girls have a stroll to people watch every evening. We fell in love with the neighborhood of Ruzafa and will miss it very much.
