Apartment was an excellent base to reach all parts of Alicante, most of which we covered on foot. The tram station is close by too, for going further afield.
Bedrooms were a little small and while the balcony could just about accommodate two people and offered a lovely view (particularly for a sunny breakfast) and good opportunities for people-watching, it is too small for more occupants to enjoy simultaneously.
All the equipment provided was fairly new and working, and the apartment was clean and welcoming. More glasses for wine/cava would have been lovely but this is a small oversight ☺
There was a bit of confusion with the agent about paying the refundable deposit, as their card payment machine was not working (or perhaps not operated correctly!), but all the other arrangements worked perfectly. Thank you to Juan for all of that, as well as for arranging for some refreshments to be in place for our arrival. There was also some flexibility for our checkout time as the apartment had not been booked for the following night.
However, I would not book via HomeAway again. It cost an extra €30 or so for the privilege, for no visible benefit to us and for only a three night stay.
Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our little break here and would recommend this apartment for a couple wishing to enjoy the ambience of Alicante.
