Virtud Terrace. 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, terrace

We loved this place. It had room for our whole party (5 adults and two kids) to spread out a nice change from the typical smallish apartments. The rooftop patio is especially awesome. It feels a bit like you are staying in a typical Moorish house with the woodwork and decorations. Very cool. The only negatives are parts of the house are showing their age and it is a bit outside of the center (cute part of) the Triana neighborhood it claims to be in. Very quick metro ride into the Centro and all the sites so it is easy to get around. It was also a bit hard to coordinate getting into the house and when I trip got near I tried to reach out to the contact I had (owner?) and got no response. I called the number when we got into town and the property manager answered right away and set up a time to meet, however he was a half hour late and when he did arrive he didn't seem to know much about the property or the neighborhood. Luckly the cleaning crew was still there and they let us in and gave us some beers so that was nice :)

Not enough hand towels in the bathrooms, no paper towels in the kitchen, the cleaning seems that it was done in a hurry, we found luggage labels and toothbrush packaging in the drawers,, the dishwasher was full, there was hair on the sheets, the agent was late and did not apologize, the so called aquarium waterfall was noisy and annoying, unclear why is the aquarium pump should still working while there was no fish or living creature inside except for some plants, the other two aquariums were empty, so the pictures of the advertised property are misleading. No toilet bins in the bathrooms. Some chairs were dirty and spotted with unknown substances, that was really gross and disgusting as well as the sewage odours in the toilets, especially in the main floor toilet, I guess the sewage system is really badly designed, not an easy fix. Locks on some furniture needs small repairs. One door handle in one of the bedrooms needs to be fixed too. We used two toothpicks to keep the parts of the handle together :)

Really nice house, we loved its design and local touch but unfortunately it's not maintained too well, and what's even more sad is that it doesn't require a great effort to fix what needs to be fixed and clean it properly.. We enjoyed the top terrace even if the canopy roof cloth was all ripped off, the plants were almost dried and there were not enough lights. The agent was kind to reserve the parking spot for us at the Triana Market at 15 minutes walking distance, as it's hard to find a suitable parking space nearby for a 9 seater van.

This four bedroom, 3 1/2 bath house was just what we were looking for. A 10 minute walk to the river and all the restaurants and stores. The kitchen was well equipped, the bedrooms were ample. We had no problems with hot water even with 8 people staying in the house. And we enjoyed the rooftop patio.

We did have one very unpleasant experience. There are two very large saltwater fish tanks. They sprung a major leak in the middle of the night. We called the emergency number and was that the owner would call. He did and sent some friends over to try to temporarily take care of the issue. But that required us to be up for several hours in the middle of the night. The next day a company came to clean up the mess. However there was a very strong odor for the remainder of our trip. No one followed up with us about the issue which was disappointing.

A minor issue was that the coffee maker didn't work, (we requested a new one and never received one) and the furniture, especially in the living room was showing its wear.

Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt in Sevilla. Die Unterkunft liegt recht zentral und ist gut mit öffentichen Verkehrsmitteln zu erreichen, fußläufig ist die Innenstadt auch gut erreichbar. Für den täglichen Bedarf ist alles in unmittelbarer Nähe im Angebot / Supermarkt/Bäcker/Metzger. Was zu verbessern wäre, ist die Anzahl des Geschirrs, wir hatten 6 Tassen für 8 Personen, das war etwas spartanisch. Wir haben dann zwei Tassen dazu gekauft. Leider waren nur die Kopfkissen überzogen und das Bett hatte ein Laken, es fehlte die Bettwäsche für die Einziehdecken. In der Übersicht stand, dass Bettwäsche zur Verfügung steht, dem war leider nur teilweise so.

Our group of six enjoyed our stay at Virtud Terrace (would give it a 3 1/2 if that rating was possible). Great location close to grocery stores, restaurants, subway system, and easy 10 minutes walk to the river and the beginning of the marvellous sites is Seville. The accommodation was clean, spacious and well equipped. The decor was unique and we thoroughly enjoyed the rooftop terrace. Only a couple of concerns were the toilet in second floor bathroom leaked and overall the apartment was musty.

Many thanks to the apartment managers for assisting us with arranging a taxi for our departure.
