Where to stay in Alfafar
Alfafar is a small town just south of Valencia city, so your best base is likely the wider Valencia area rather than Alfafar itself. Staying in City Centre or Ruzafa puts you close to good transport links and makes the short trip to Alfafar easy.
If you'd prefer to stay closer to the market, look for options in Alfafar town centre, where you'll find a quieter, more local feel without straying too far from the action.
