ROBERTA'S GUEST HOUSE, Seville

The guest house is less than 1 km from Isla Mágica and a 13-minute walk from Palacio de las Dueñas. The historic centre, including the cathedral and Plaza de España, is about 2-3 km away - a 20-30 minute walk or a short bus/metro ride. Bus and metro stops are within 10 minutes on foot, and Seville Airport is 9 km away. The immediate neighbourhood is packed with bars and restaurants such as Zero Tapas Bar, El Cocinero Feliz, and Bar Antojo (all within 0.5 km). The property sits in a secure, gated courtyard, keeping the apartment quiet despite being in a bustling area. For cyclists, a bicycle station is nearby.

The double room has 2 beds, a desk, wardrobe, and a small balcony with garden views. The single room offers a single bed, desk, seating area, and wardrobe. Both room types include air conditioning (hot/cold) and soundproof walls. The shared bathrooms are a practical limitation: one has a curtain instead of a door, the other does not close fully. The apartment benefits from daily housekeeping and is kept clean. Some rooms face an internal courtyard and are quiet, while others share a wall with the main door or kitchen, where noise from other guests can be audible. The property is a self-contained flat within a residential building, so there is no dedicated reception.

Guests have access to a spotless, well-equipped shared kitchen with an oven, hob, fridge (with labelled shelves per room), and basic supplies such as oil, sugar, and tea. Some guests have found the kitchen ideal for preparing simple meals or breakfast. The surrounding area is dense with dining options: Zero Tapas Bar, El Cocinero Feliz, and Bar Antojo are all within a 0.3-0.5 km walk, and the host provides personal recommendations for local restaurants and Flamenco shows. For a wider selection, the historic centre is a 15-20 minute walk or a short bus ride away.

The property has a small terrace and a patio with outdoor seating, offering a quiet spot to relax within the gated courtyard. Board games and puzzles are provided for indoor leisure. The surrounding area offers kayaking and canoeing on the river, and Isla Mágica theme park is less than 1 km away. The lively Alameda de Hércules square (with many bars and restaurants) is within a short walk.

Wi-Fi is free throughout the apartment. Daily housekeeping is included for common areas. Check-in is strictly after 12:30 and requires prior notice of arrival time; late arrivals after 22:00 incur a €12 fee. Check-out is at 10:30 - keys are left inside the apartment as there is no 24-hour reception. Luggage storage is not guaranteed but can be arranged with the host. The property has a shared kitchen and complimentary tea/coffee. Safety features include key access, CCTV in common areas, smoke alarms, and fire extinguishers. There is no lift; the apartment is on a lower floor.
