Adriana, our host was so kind and thoughtful. She met us at the apartment to explain how everything worked and gave us excellent recommendations for museums and restaurants (and helped us to phone one). There were lovely treats including fresh coffee, tea, spreads and fruit. The apartment felt special because we could imagine the people who would have lived and worked there from the 18th century (fortunately, thoughtfully modernised for us in this century- including a/c in the bedroom). The apartment is narrow and on 3 floors, with a spiral staircase joining the rooms on each floor. It’s best if you have carry-on bags or backpacks rather than big bags or you will struggle with the stairs.
Adriana’s home was very cleaned and organized. She welcomed us with open arms. Provided us with instructions and lots of recommendations of places to visit and dine. She even helped us make a reservation to Salinas Tabernas. She sent text messages checking in on us, which was sweet. Couldn’t not have asked for a better hostess.
Fabulous stay at this beautifully restored apartment. Gorgeous host you looked after us very well. Very unique place to stay and super comfortable as well as walking distance to all the main sites
Highly recommend
We were warmly greeted by Adriana our friendly and helpful host, who imparted really useful information with tips to get the most of our stay. The property is wonderfully quaint and quirky, steeped in history, excellently situated and easy walking distance to the main tourist attractions.
The owner is very thoughtful and thorough. She made great local recommendations, and the accommodations were pleasant, clean, and comfortable. There are also places very nearby for groceries. We truly enjoyed our stay here.
We stayed two nights. Adriana was great at communicating with us on our way there. She greeted us when we arrived and let us know everything about the apartment. She had lovely tips on places to see and where to eat. We’d definitely stay again if we’re back in the area!
The property is full of antiques and old world charm. Ariana our host was excellent and explained everything and gave us some wonderful recommendations for eating out. Great location in the beautiful old town. Highly recommend.
This is a small, historic and slightly quirky house very centrally located for visiting the main tourist areas in Cordoba. Adriana was an attentive host, liaising with us in advance and meeting us there to show us where everything was. The spiral staircase might be difficult for anyone less mobile, but otherwise would recommend this as a base to explore Cordoba's sights and wide choice of good restaurants.

Beautiful and comfortable old townhome in the middle of Cordoba, with walking distance to all Cordoba has to offer. Like stepping back in time. Highly recommend.
Gorgeous little apartment oozing history, character and charm with everything you need. Adriana was the perfect host, allowing us to leave our luggage as we arrived early. She gave us lots of recommendations for restaurants and offered to book for us as well. She provided us with a big bowl of fruit and other goodies. On leaving she also booked us a taxi.
This apartment is very unique as the building is very old. There is a very steep, winding staircase up to the bedrooms on two different levels. Not recommended for anyone with mobility issues, or small children.
The rooms are quite big and very comfortable. Adriana was a very attentive host and provided us with a lot of information and recommendations. One thing to note, which is not in the VRBO description, there is an extra charge if you use more than one bed. We loved our stay in Cordoba….thanks Adriana.
Fabulous host and apartment - Spotless and beautiful
In the day and age of anonymous check in what a delight to meet our wonderful host Adriana. She greeted us right at the property and spent time to review all the features of the apartment. Such a gentle and generous woman. Apartment is very well equipped and has everything you need. A beautiful fruit basket and all the kitchen basics. The apartment and decorations are stunning and you feel like you are sitting in a Spanish high end store. Adriana also took the time to give us recommendations of where to eat and you can trust her completely. The restaurant was a 5 star all the way. Location is amazing, right near all the main attractions but tucked away so you have a quiet nights sleep. We wished we had booked more nights, as we loved Cordoba and our lovely apartment. Thank you Adriana for everything. Besos y abrazos
Adriana was very hospitable and welcoming. She provided lots of brochures and made recommendations for restaurants, etc. She even called a cab for us on departure and provided fresh fruit, sweets, and coffee. The accommodations are charming and comfortable and (important to us) has great water pressure and plenty of hot water.
On the downside, the street outside was noisy with people passing by and talking until well after midnight on a Tuesday night. We did not understand from the listing that if we used both bedrooms, there would be an up charge, so we recommend that you read the listing very carefully and ask the host any questions you have in advance.
If we are ever in Cordoba again, we will definitely consider Adriana’s property. She couldn’t have been nicer.
This little home is very quaint and quirky. Great location and host was very helpful with providing information on recommendations and sites you may want to visit. It was spotlessly clean.
For anyone renting in future, it was unclear based on the listing so this information may be helpful. This is a small accommodation with 3 levels. First level is a small kitchen area with table and 2 built in benches for seating. There is no other living room etc. There is AC on this level and it was lovely and cool. There is a narrow spiral stair case to 2nd level which has the washroom with bidet, sink, toilet and tub/shower combination. Water is hot and pressure is great. This level also has a bedroom with queen bed, good sized room, ceiling fan, but no AC. We had initially indicated we would stay in this room, not being aware there was no AC and it was quite warm up there in Sept. The spiral staircase continues to a 3rd level which has 2 single beds and an AC unit. This room is also a good size. The host graciously made this room up for us so we would have AC for sleeping. This rental is not for anyone with mobility issues due to the narrow spiral staircase. It was tricky managing this in the night to use the washroom on level below. The host asked in advance which room we would occupy so this info may be helpful to future guests dependent on time of year travelling. Lovely host and stay in Cordoba.
The house is beautiful and the location is perfect. Very good value for a 2-bedroom place! Adriana is the perfect host, very easy to deal with, and if your Spanish is limited like mine she can help out with booking restaurants, taxis etc. I really enjoyed my time here, highly recommended!
Adriana is extremely helpful, responsive and keen to share her knowledge and love of Cordoba! We had a fabulous two days in the charming Spanish house located within the heart of the old town and a short walk from many of the places of interest.
Charming and well located. Safe and comfortable. Easy walk to everything. Quiet at night with wonderfully dark bedroom. Lively touches inside Adriana could not have been more helpful and charming, helped us with dinner/ flamenco and taxi reservations. Stay here!
Lovely Little Place in the Heart of Historical Area of Cordoba
Adriana was very welcoming and helpful and made us feel right at home. The apartment is lovely, and has so much character! We enjoyed our stay in Cordoba at Casa La Carmen!
