I had an apartment on calle Cadiz in russafa for 16 years. I sold it 2 years ago just before covid hit. Reason? If your bedrooms and balconies overlook the street be prepared for it to be noisy all night once all the covid restrictions have been lifted. Those outside bars and terraces attract stag/hen weekenders, office parties, drunk students etc. Not a party pooper but it can get on top of you, especially in summer when you want to leave the windows open!

that is true. Luckly for me this part of the street is not very busy, the closest bar is 1 street away
