Location. Clean. Great balcony

Fantastic place. Clean. Quiet. Amazing views. Great location. A few quirks to work out with the shower. The church next store entertained the neighborhood with music and pageantry. Javi was such a gentleman, gracious and responsive to requests.

Sunny Attic

Alexandra is a good host and Javi very helpful. Location is great. A broken elevator and several flights of stairs made it a difficult climb to reach the apartment. The hot water situation was not dependable - sometimes yes - sometimes no.

Seville delight

The location was very good, and it was easy to find everything nearby you needed for your stay. You get accustomed easily to the surroundings and find nothing is that far away. The church bells do ring on the hour from 10AM until 9PM, but inside the apartment it is surprisingly not that loud.

Seville break

The location of this property was excellent to see eveything we wanted. Unfortunately we had problems with the hot water and had cold showers for most of the time. Although Javi tried to fix it, it still wasn't working. Not a great experience. The dishwasher also did not work so after 3 days of putting stuff in to wash we had to wash by hand. Again not a great experience. You expect things to work. There was also a nasty smell in the communal area of the apartments - sewerage I think. We had a lovely time in Seville but these few things made it slightly less easy and enjoyable. Thanks to Javi though for his effort and friendliness. 5 stars there for sure working properlywasher also did not work

The climb up 3 flights got easier each day!

This was a good base for us as we explored Sevilla and surrounding areas. Only suggestion would be to brighten up the wall decor. Some bright posters would go a long way.

Wonderful Spot

We are 70+ year old couple from USA and appreciated all the help and support we received from "Javi" and Alexandra (bags up the stairs, scheduled taxi to airport, small repairs, restaurant and flamenco recommendations, etc.) Beds were good. Very well equipped kitchen for cooking. Rooftop patio is delightful (as long as you remember that the church next door rings bell on the hour during daytime). It was perfect for our 4 days in Seville. Great location for walking to the scenic parts of the city.

Very Convenient Location

El Como is in a good position to visit all parts of Seville and has most things required for a relaxed holiday. We were greeted on arrival by Javi and given all info needed for our stay. The terrace is a lovely addition and it was great to have breakfast out there, before the heat of the day struck. Flat is up 3 flights of stairs with no lift, so be aware of this. It was also very hot while we were there and air conditioners struggled a bit to keep the flat cool. Some of the decor/furniture could do with an update, but I would recommend El Colmo for a short stay in the city.

Just perfect!

We had a fantastic 4 night stay at this property. The apartment was so clean and well equipped - we were very impressed. Javi, who dealt with our check in was fantastic. Very helpful. The location is great - everywhere is walkable. 5 mins to a supermarket; 20 mins to the cathedral / Alcazar area; 10 mins to Alameda de Hércules (a great street with so many bars and restaurants) and best of all only a 10 min walk from the bus stop to and from the airport. We loved staying here and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this apartment - we'd stay there again in a heartbeat. In fact we hope to one day.

Great choice!

This was an excellent location for five nights in Seville. The apartment is in a typical Spanish neighborhood and has everything you need to make you comfortable. It was an abnormally cold January but the heat pumps kept us warm. Beds were very comfortable and we had tons of space to ourselves. We didn't mind climbing the stairs to the top floor because that gave us a great view and no neighbours above us! Very good value.

Champion!

Very cosy and quirky flat. Near the river and in a “Spanish” neighbourhood but within walking distance of tourist central. Close to shops, supermarkets, bars and restaurants. Aircon throughout - which was essential during our stay. Wi-Fi fine. Communication with Alexandra and (locally) with Javi via WhatsApp was easy. Great attraction was the terrace where you can just chill out looking out over the rooftops. I’d happily stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Alexandra Whitaker

I am Spanish, I was raised by English-speaking parents, and I now live in Portugal.

Why they chose this property

This apartment used to be my home. I looked at more than thirty apartments in Seville before buying this one. I loved it on first sight because of the light, the views, the location, the quiet. It's a peaceful and romantic place.

What makes this property unique

This attic apartment is light, airy, romantic, and it has great views. It's full of windows, yet there are no neighbors overlooking. The orientation is east-west, so it's sunny all day, and most of the windows placed across from each other, creating a good through-breeze. There are ceiling fans, a/c, plants, nice engravings on the walls. The terrace is private, sunny all day long, perfect for drinks and meals eating outside.
