Seville in May
First of all the staff are 5* rated as they were professional, prompt,courteous and helpful at all times. The property is also 5* as it was a 10 minute walk to the Cathedral , a block from the river, grocery store around the corner and an abundance of restaurants to choose from, all in easy walking distance. The apartment was also quite quiet and shady which was a blessing since the temperatures were in the mid to high 30s Celsius during our stay.
What prevents me from a full 5* rating were a couple of things. One there was one neighbor above us who seemed to want to what sounded like moving furniture at 11pm and it happened consistently during our stay and it does speak to the fact that insulation was thin in the apartment as it didnt take much for sound to travel between walls. It would have been nice if the TV had access to things like Netflix, Amazon Prime etc as all the channels were in spanish and during hot evenings when it was just too warm to go walking about a little entertainment diversion would have helped. The water pressure was occasionally inconsistent in terms of temperature and/or pressure.
The apartment would be fine for a family of 4 or perhaps 2 couples but as is typical for rentals that we've seen in Spain they tend to be more compact than what North Americans are used to. The other common thing we've seen is no oven, yes a cooktop and microwave.
