  : Location is fantastic, on quiet little plaza, next to a beautiful plaza with a couple of bar/cafes, on the edge of historic Santa Cruz. We arrived at night and had a late meal by the fires of the heat lamps of one of the cafes, a lovely introduction to Seville. Churrera, bars, cafes, restaurants, taxi stand are all just steps away, and yet it wasn't noisy. We could walk pretty everywhere we wanted to go (about 5 minutes to the Cathedral and Alczar, 20 minutes across the bridge to the wonderful market in Triana). Quick and inexpensive taxi ride to train station. The room was pretty comfortable and we could control our own heat, though not perfectly. We made an error in the booking and the hosts were expecting a baby instead of a teen and put up a crib, with no sheets for the sofa bed. They got it sorted when we advised them the next day and they were apologetic even though it was probably my fault. Hosts could be reached by email and phone and we met the delightful cleaner, and cleaned and made our beds when she took out the crib. We didn't use the kitchen but it would be useful for anyone staying longer (though in that case the suite would probably be better for a couple or a single person than a family, as there wasn't much room in the front living/kitchen room once the sofa bed was out). There was also a nice communal roof deck that we unfortunately didn't have time to use.
  : I would have liked to meet the hosts on site, but maybe that is just my own personal preference. We were definitely on our own. The sofa bed mattress wasn't as good as the mattresses in the bedroom. A couple more pillows would be awesome. Do be aware that (in that particular suite) anyone sleeping on the sofa bed has to go through the bedroom to get to the bathroom. Using the codes required a few tries to get them right and figure out how to open the doors. These are all minor quibbles. We were very happy with our accommodations!
