The name of this aparthotel is, as we understood it, taken from the local name of the street where it is located, Larga, and the house number, 70. Is seems to be one of the main streets in the centre of El Puerto de Santa María, but since our apartment did not give onto the main street it was no problem with the traffic noise during the day (anyway at night there is almost no traffic at all). Even if one cannot park the car right outside the aparthotel (except for unloading), there was no need for us to use the parking houses since we perfectly could find a free parking place within walking distance on the streets in the small town. About the apartement: ours was on the top floor, which seems construced some time after the original one, so inside there was nothing antique in style; it rather resembled the ordinary cheap apartments one can hire in Greece. The view from the terrass and the kitchen was on house roofs and closely to one of the kitchen windows there were ruins of an abandoned house. There was air condition in the dining room and the bedrooms, but I guess the kitchen is too small to have "the air" installed there. Since the kitchen did not have a window, it soon became very hot, and difficult to stay in for a longer time. The kitchen is not really suitable for any big cooking or washing up, having only 2 stovetops, not so many good utensils and very little space. I should say that that was the main minus in the flat. It was enough for being able to make a breakfast but we restrained from making other meals. Even if the standard was not what I expected for the price paid (more than 1000 euros for a week in August for 2 bedrooms - compared with half of the sum at Canary Islands just before Easter), I very much appreciated the central location and the quite spacious bedrooms and the dining room. Also the reception personnel was very friendly and helpful. On arrival we received free tickets for a drink of a "fino" wine at the contigous bar. There is a laundry with 2 washing mashines one can book for 5 euro (the detergent included) between appr. 12-14 or 17-20 hrs. I guess that if You choose some other time than the peak month August, for visiting Larga, You could get it for a better price, and then I can recommend it for some days unpretentious stay in the centre of El Puerto.
