"One of the best hotels I've stayed in my life. The customer service is outstanding. The hotel is beautiful, with a balance of colonial style and modern design in the rooms. The best of two worlds. The location is perfect, exactly between the main avenue and the old city. And finally, the breakfast is amazing."
"Limpio comodo u recepción muy amable , un hotel para pasar la noche tranquilo , lo agarramos para solo dormir y cumplió su objetivo muy tranquilo y cómodo"
"Great hotel and staff. Fantastic breakfast. The wifi connection was fast and I was able to work at high speed internet during my stay. The only downside is that you have to pay for parking separately, still affordable. "
"The corner suite was wonderful. Getting to lie in bed and watch the waves, the early morning joggers, and watch the sun set in the evening was super! Breakfast provided plenty of choice. Location is very convenient to everything. Staff was warm and welcoming. We look forward to returning in the future."
