We had a very pleasant stay at this small hotel fashioned from an historic building. It is nicely appointed. The rooms are elegantly furnished and very comfortable. The pools at the center of the courtyard form an oasis from the outside world.

The hotel was so close to great restaurants and all the areas you should go see. All the downtown attractions were a 10-15 min pleasurable walk. The snacks and water and coffee/ tea always available was amazing too! Definitely one of the nicest places I’ve stayed…. The room was so romantic!

Pros and cons

Gorgeous small hotel about 1 mile from Centro. Nothing nearby, a long walk to restaurants, shops , etc. excellent staff, great breakfast included, pool too cold to swim in, showers terrible (low water pressure and shower head way too high. I’m 5’4, was about 2 ft above my head so I never could get hair rinsed).

El hotel está muy bonito, no me gustó que el agua de la alberca estaba helada! No tenían caldera por lo cual no la pudimos utilizar. El menú del desayuno (venía incluido) era lo mismo todos los días y no tenías más opciones. No había Televisión en la habitación. La lámpara de la habitación con polvo, el agua de la habitación sabía raro y no la cambiaban todos los días. Nos cobraron comisión por el pago con Tarjeta de crédito de consumos, no nos informaron con anticipación. No regresaría a este hotel.

Charming hotel but not the best location

Lovely hotel with excellent staff. Delicious breakfast. Location was a little out of the way. More than a half mile to the major squares, restaurants and shopping. Pretty much nothing in the immediate area. That said Ubers are very inexpensive if you don’t want to walk.
