HomeySeville- Bright Apartment at Santa Cruz 6 pax, Parking Optional

Hotel Description

Honestly, I wasn’t sure what to expect from an apartment rental in Barrio Santa Cruz – you know how these old quarter places can be hit or miss. But HomeySeville really surprised me. The minute you step inside this bright little gem on Calle Santa María la Blanca, you get why it’s booked solid most of the year. The space actually feels bigger than you’d think (those high ceilings don’t hurt), and whoever set this place up clearly knows what travelers need. I mean, there’s proper counter space in the kitchen – not some afterthought kitchenette – and the living area has that comfortable, lived-in vibe without feeling like someone’s grandma’s house.

What really sold me was the location, though. You’re literally in the heart of the old Jewish quarter, which sounds touristy until you realize what that actually means. Step outside and you’re thirty seconds from those impossibly narrow streets with the orange trees and hidden plazas that make Seville feel like a movie set. The cathedral bells will wake you up if you’re a light sleeper (fair warning), but honestly, it becomes part of the charm after a day or two. Plus, you can walk to pretty much everything – Alcázar, the cathedral, those little tapas bars tucked away in corners that locals actually go to. I spent half my mornings just wandering the maze of streets with my coffee, getting pleasantly lost before circling back for lunch.

The parking situation is worth mentioning because, well, driving in Santa Cruz is basically a nightmare. If you’re renting a car, definitely spring for their parking option – trust me on this one. I watched too many people circle the narrow streets for ages looking for a spot that doesn’t exist. The apartment itself sleeps six comfortably, which is perfect for families or groups who want to avoid those sterile hotel vibes. The beds are actually decent (not always a given with rentals), and there’s enough hot water for everyone to shower without planning a military operation. Small thing, but the WiFi is solid too – I worked from the little table by the window a few mornings and never had issues. The 8.3 rating feels about right; it’s not luxury by any means, but it’s exactly what you want from a base camp in one of Spain’s most beautiful neighborhoods. You’ll spend most of your time exploring anyway, but it’s nice to come back somewhere that feels like home rather than just another place to crash.

• Mohammed from United States – 3 June 2023 (8/10)

  Location was great! There were many restaurants nearby and it was a short walk to Alcazar and other points of interests. We were there when Seville won the Europa League and the view from the windows allowed us to see people celebrating in the streets. The Wi-Fi was very great! We appreciate the amenities that the host provided such as tea and marmalade.
  
  What could be improved: The apartment needed a little bit of attention to fix minor things. The apartment seems a little bit old but overall there was a definite Spanish feel to it. There was a light fixture that needed repair on the stairs leading to the apartment.

• Anna from United Kingdom – 29 August 2022 (9/10)

  Perfect location! 10-15 minutes walk to the main attractions of stunning Seville 🤩 Nice apartment with enough space for a family of 4 with 2 teenage boys.
  Public underground parking 2 minutes away from the apartment (25 euros per day). We really enjoyed staying here and the noise was not a problem at all.
  
  What could be improved: A little refurbishment would be great as place looks worn-down. Cleanliness could be improved too.

• Natalia from Brazil – 26 January 2025 (8/10)

  Great location. Santa Cruz neighborhood is great, with lots of restaurants, cafes and shops. Very close to the main attractions of Seville. The apartment was nice, good beds, kitchen very well equipped. The host was very attentive and resolved some issues we had on the first night.
  
  What could be improved: The bathroom needs a renovation. It’s small and we had a problem with the toilet flush (it was not working properly) on the first night. I contacted the host who promptly responded and had it fixed the other day while we were out sightseeing. When we arrived back, everything was in perfect order, so in the end, it was a positive experience! The parking offered by the host is not close to the apartment and the streets in Sevilha are very narrow, so if you’re traveling with lots of bags and children, I would suggest parking at the parking lot around the corner from the apartment – it will be more expensive, but less hassle.

• John from United States – 5 January 2025 (7/10)

  What could be improved: Beds not comfortable; shower smelled of mold and water not hot enough

• Veronika from Czech Republic – 26 April 2024 (8/10)

  Superb location, very close to the main sights and parks. 5 cute little balconies with spanish vibe.
  
  What could be improved: the drain in the shower, the kitchen equipment, the comfort of the bed
