VLC HOST- FRAY PEDRO, Valencia

The apartment is situated on a quiet street in an authentic neighbourhood, 2 km from L'Oceanografic and 2 km from Turia Gardens. Norte Train Station is 2 km away and Valencia Airport is 11 km away. The area is well served by public transport: the metro station Amado Granell-Montolivet (green line) is less than 200 metres away, and several bus stops are nearby, providing direct routes to the city centre, the beach and the airport. Supermarkets, a local bakery, cafés, bars and restaurants are all within a few minutes' walk. The neighbourhood is lively but can be noisy at night, especially from bars on both ends of the street.

The accommodation is a well-equipped studio (described as spacious by some) that sleeps up to four: a double bed and a sofa bed. The private bathroom features a shower with grab rails, a foldable shower chair, and a hairdryer - suitable for guests with limited mobility. The kitchenette includes a stovetop, microwave, refrigerator, coffee machine, electric kettle, and all necessary cookware. The living area has a seating area with a flat-screen TV, a dining table, and a washing machine. The apartment is ground-floor and street-facing, so can be dark and noisy; road-facing rooms pick up street noise and bar sounds until late. Some bathrooms have had issues with sewer smell, poor ventilation and shower drainage. The air conditioning unit has been reported to not cool effectively, acting more like a fan. Luggage storage cannot be guaranteed, but early bag drop has been accommodated on request.

The apartment does not offer a restaurant, bar or breakfast service. The kitchenette is equipped with a stovetop, microwave, refrigerator, coffee machine and all necessary cookware, making self-catering straightforward. The surrounding area has a variety of dining options: Bar Los Gallegos (0.5 km), Murillo, Patitas Coloras, Bar la Pau, Citadella and El Rey Chico are all within 0.5 km. A local bakery for fresh bread and a Mercadona supermarket are also within a few minutes' walk.

The apartment does not include a pool, spa, gym or garden. However, Turia Gardens is a 20-minute walk away, and the City of Arts and Sciences (including L'Oceanografic) is a 10-minute walk. The neighbourhood is close to parks, and the beach is accessible by bike (about 15 minutes) or by public transport. The apartment has a small private terrace.

The apartment offers free high-speed Wi-Fi throughout. Check-in and check-out are fully automated via a code system; detailed instructions are provided in advance. Emergency contact is available but response times can be slow (up to an hour). The property is on the ground floor with a private entrance, and has grab rails and a foldable chair in the bathroom for accessibility. A welcome pack includes a few water bottles, wine, and a cleaning kit. Extra cleaning during longer stays is offered. The apartment does not have on-site staff during the night but the hosts are responsive by message. No parking is available; street parking is very difficult. The nearest metro and bus stops are within 200 metres, providing easy connections to the centre, beach and airport.
