This is a nice apartment with easy access to much of Valencia on foot. Only 10-15 minutes walk from Valencia old town with great restaurants, shops etc. Good local supermarkets , bakeries, small bars etc a couple of minutes walk from the apartment. However, the apartment is in a residential block and the noise from the upstairs neighbours is unacceptable. They seem to drag their furniture across the hard flooring continuously and at the weekends undertake DIY with the prolonged use of power tools. On the Saturday early evening when we returned to the apartment to shower and change they were having saxophone practice with the woman of the house singing to introduce the rhythm for the budding musician. There are at least 2 dogs living in the building, one on the same floor as the apartment which barks only occasionally but there is another one on the ground floor which howls, hounds of the Baskerville style, for prolonged periods of time. the dogs are healthy and well cared for and the owners are extremely nice. On weekday mornings the sounds of people preparing for work and school begin around 7am with shutters and doors being banged , locks being double locked etc. This continues until around 9.30 and then the furniture dragging upstairs begins for the day. I don’t see a resolution to this as it is a residential building. We were only in Valencia for 5 days and were out for a lot of the time but I feel that for people who are there for a longer time that it would very quickly become a real issue. re the continuing saga of the lack of a toaster, the owners thinks that he has a combined microwave and grill but it is only a microwave , no grilling ability and the oven is a very old fashioned conventional oven which takes forever to heat. I understand that the owner is concerned that the apartment only has 5kw of electricity. I have a house in Spain with 4.6kw of electricity and a note to guests saying , please don’t use the toaster, kettle and aircon at the same time will prevent power trip outs. the arrival procedure is poor and seems to depend on the guests having smart phones with 4G capability. Despite having told the owner that we would arrive at 7pm, we were left in the street for 35 mins. When he arrived he was beyond rude.The other problem with the check in is that the owner did not complete the forms required by the police regarding our presence in his apartment but we resolved this ourselves by taking our passports etc into the police.
