The proximity to the plaza ayuntamiento was great, and from there you're only a few minutes walk to the Carmen. The architecture of the building is awesome, as is the friendliness of the staff! ¡Gracias por todo!

Pension Universal was very centrally located, within an easy ten minute walk to the train station. The facilities were clean and welcoming. Especially nice was the well-appointed kitchen with its own dining area. The room was quiet and had a small Juliet balcony overlooking a side street.

“One-night stay in the centre of Valencia”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 1 night
- • Submitted from a mobile device
The bathroom is small but clean. The room is noisy but this is to be expected in the centre. The room is dark and doesn't have much direct sunlight which is actually a good thing in summer. There was no air-con (not important for us).
The hotel is very conveniently located, we could reach everything in the old town on foot. The bed was comfortable. Overall it's a good value for money.

The noise was outsiders. But if you bring ear plugs not problem.
The pension was amazing close to everything... you don’t need to take the bus only walking to see the culture of València. You can walk also ( if you like to walk ) to Malvarrosa beach ( 45mint. More or less). For the price you pay is worth. Only one inconvenient if you stay in double bedroom you have your private shower but you need to share the toilet with bathing.
