THE AREA SURROUNDING THE ABASTOS APARTMENT.
The Abastos apartment in Valencia takes its name from the restored Abastos Market which now houses a municipal sports centre and which is an impressive building of cultural heritage that lies literally over the road from the door of your apartment. You could take advantage of your location by enjoying use of the facilities offered which include three large pools, a large gymnasium and a spa (please consult the centre for the costs). Please note that there is not a swimming pool, gym or spa located in the building in which the apartment is located.
The neighbourhood in which the Abastos apartment is to be found is known as Juan Llorens, after the street of the same name, in which are to be found a popular concentration of restaurants and cafes, so if you do decide to eat out you will have plentiful options right on your doorstep.
