L'Arbre

I found the odor coming from the shower room to be difficult at times. I know it’s a problem in Valencia in different parts of the city and in different seasons, to have a harsh odor coming from the shower rooms, but it was quite strong at times. I found that using the bleaching cleaning liquid that was at the apartment very useful with this, putting some of it in the different drainages in the shower room and letting it sit.

1. The air conditioner was not working properly while it was +40°C outside. But the host got it fixed after two days, so after that everything was fine. 2. In the bedroom, there are no air conditioner, just a ventilator, so if you go there while there is +40°C outside, you probably want an air conditioner in your bedroom. 😁 3. Overall, the apartment was clean, but the walls were dirty. a fresh coat of paint wouldn't hurt. 4. The balcony floors were dirty. 5. The stairs are narrow. If you have big bags, or you are a bigger person, and it would be challenging to get to your apartment 😁 6. Te smell, but I suppose it's an old house problem. At first it was uncomfortable, but after some while you get used to it and don't feel it anymore.

The furniture was quite old (in the living room) and unpractical (a wardrobe in the bedroom blocking access to one side of the bed). Some of the appliances were dangerously “old”: a broken socket in the wall, a defective tap in the kitchen. Also, the kitchen lacked some basic stuff, like pans/pots. Also not the easiest to get in touch with the apartment management, prior to our stay: I had to call Booking to ask that one of my messages be replied to. Really not the best value for money.

There were 53 stairs up to the property which may cause issues for those with limited mobility

A missed a couple of things in the appartment like something to hang washed clothes, but I managed. Nothing really important.

Positioned just above two pubs. Quite noisy Friday and Saturday nights. Stairs very very narrow and steep. Furniture cheap and not very comfortable. Other facilities were ok.
