The location is pretty good - it is a 20 minute or so walk to the city center but it is in a good area in the more modern part of Valencia. Across the street is a Corte Ingles, where you can pick up groceries or go on a shopping spree. There also are a lot of restaurants in the area. As its name implies, it is close to the aquarium and other buildings in the City of Arts and Sciences. That means it also is close to the large park where the river once was around the old city. The service at the front desk also is good, and the front desk can sell discounted tickets to the aquarium.
The rooms are small and not much to look at, but they are very clean. The wifi does not work well and basically cut in and out the whole time we were there, making it impossible to play any movies or shows on our iPads. As a result of the poor wifi, I would not recommend it to someone who is travelling on business.
The location definitely is the best thing about the hotel, which must be getting it the rating it has (along with the cost). Aside from the location and good service, it is a low frills hotel with looks to meet the low cost. So, depending on what you are looking for this hotel may or may not work for you. I would consider staying again if the price was good, although I definitely would also look at the other available options. read more
