"We enjoyed staying at the Parador in Avila. Excellent room. Helpful ataff. Outstanding breakfast, and delicious dinner, though the service was too slow for us, toward the end of a 3.5 wk trip in Spain. The Parador location makes it very easy to get outside Avila's famous city walls and walk around the entire old ciry for different views of the ancient walls. If we return to Avila, we would definitely stay at the Parador.. Highly recommended."
