Pio XII Apartments Valencia

Ich habe diese Unterkunft gefunden, um den Valencia MotoGP zu verfolgen. Belebte Gegend, aber alles in allem in der Nähe des historischen Zentrums (ca. 9 Minuten von Ciudad Vella) und des Autobahnkreuzes (20 Minuten von der Rennstrecke und 15 Minuten vom Flughafen entfernt). Das einzig Negative ist, dass ich dachte, es gäbe rund um die Uhr eine physische Rezeption, stattdessen ist die Rezeption nur tagsüber von 10 bis 19 Uhr geöffnet. Als wir gegen 21 Uhr ankamen und feststellten, dass die Rezeption geschlossen war, versuchten wir, die Hilfenummer anzurufen, und Freundlich und geduldig halfen sie uns mit Fernzugriffscodes (die Tür und die Wohnung verfügen über elektronische Schlösser). Schade, dass sie uns die Codes nicht früher geschickt haben. Für das Auto gibt es mehrere Parkplätze unter dem Haus und mehrere in der Umgebung. Sehr bequeme Matratzen und Kissen. Die Zimmer sind mit einer Küchenzeile mit Geräten und einem Willkommenspaket ausgestattet! Ich schätze auch das kostenlose Wasser im Kühlschrank (oft tun dies nicht einmal 4-Sterne-Hotels).

It was a lovely apartment. The washing machine was very usefull. We enjoyed cooking our own food which we bought across the street at the Corte Inglese, They supplied us with basic necessities to cook and clean. Staff was very helpful.

Good apartment

Lovely clean apartment with a very comfy bed. A good location. Only a 15/20 minute walk into the centre. A fabulous shopping centre directly across from the apartments with a supermarket and hundreds of other shops. A lovely balcony. A washing pod was provided too which was very handy to do at least one wash. The airport is only 15 minutes away. It was located in a busy area so it was a bit noisy with all the traffic at night but that didn’t bother us too much. There was good cooking facilities ( microwave , full fridge , freezer , over , hob).

The apartment smelled very strongly of smoking so, as we had to go out, we left the windows open and bought air freshener, which took a day to work. There are no smoke alarms so nothing to stop people smoking. The apartment was dated, which a pity. The layout was fine apart from paper thin walls and noisy neighbours at night :-( Finally, the location was good as it was near a metro but I didn’t feel 100% comfortable walking around outside the apartments. A group or couple are probably fine.

Upon making a last minute booking in Valencia at Pio XII Apartments in October 2023, I immediately realised I had booked for the dates one year in advance from my intended date. Upon realising this, I immediately requested cancellation with a refund. After no response by email and messaged, I finally reached the reception, who informed me the manager was not willing to give me a refund, even though I cancelled immediately. I see this as money hungry behaviour that is morally unacceptable. I run my own rental property online, and would not have the horrible intention to do such a thing to someone who has made a simple error and has immediately tried to amend it. Disgraceful behaviour by these money grabbers. Very disappointing
