Not really. It's the Hotel Casas de Santa Cruz and it's delightfully charming and wonderfully quiet following the noise and hoopla of Valencia. It's in the historic district, a two-minute walk from the Cathedral where I'll explore this morning before trying to get in some shopping without getting lost. Gene left early to join in the fight to save the world from cars at Velocity 2011, a conference devoted to biking around the world.
But I wanted to share photos of this little charmer, very old on the outside, free wifi on the inside. What's not to love? (and thank you, Google Chrome, for uploading my photos when Windows wouldn't. Could the 30 other Windows Gene has open on his computer be the culprit?)

| Gene enters the small and cozy "lobby". Can't really be more than 20x20, if that. |

| The view looking directly up from the center of the lobby |

| The view of our entire floor looking from just outside the door on the left. |
 |
| The view from our little balcony to the left |

And the right.
We'll have to lug our suitcases a few short blocks in order to meet our taxi tomorrow morning for our final train ride back to Madrid. But the lugging is worth it. This was a sweet little place to hole up in for our final days in Spain. |
Did Gene have a chance to get a haircut from the Barber of Sevilla? Ouch.
