    cozy atmosphere
    limited breakfast options

    The hotel offers a cozy atmosphere that

    makes it feel like a home away from home. The location is ideal for exploring the city, but I found the breakfast options limited and lacking variety.

    charming building
    helpful staff
    limited breakfast options
    noise from outside

    Excellent location and cozy atmosphere

    My stay was wonderful! The location is perfect, just a short walk to the main plaza, and I loved the charming character of the old building. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the staff went out of their way to accommodate our needs, including a delicious breakfast that catered to food allergies. One minor downside was the limited options for breakfast, but overall, I would definitely return.

    Charming Stay with Helpful Staff

    We stayed for 3 nights in a cozy Twin Room and loved the central location. The staff went above and beyond to help us with local attractions, and the breakfast provided a lovely start to our mornings. Remember to secure any valuables during your stay!

    exceptional service
    historic charm
    landmark view
    lack of elevator

    lovely stay with minor setbacks

    The staff offered exceptional service, with Viviana providing assistance with my luggage and sharing valuable local insights. My room was spacious and comfortable, with a good closet for my belongings. The historic charm of the building was delightful, making it a pleasant place to relax. I appreciated the view of the surrounding landmarks that enhanced my experience.

    The absence of an elevator made navigating between floors slightly challenging.

    lovely lobby
    spacious suite
    worn furniture
    limited breakfast options
    amenities need upgrades

    Charming old-world atmosphere with a lovely lobby. The suite was spacious, featuring two bedrooms and a kitchen, perfect for our short stay. The location was ideal, right in the heart of the historic area, and the price was unbeatable at $45. However, the furniture was a bit worn, and the amenities could use some upgrades. Breakfast options were limited, but the overall cleanliness and comfort made up for it.

    charming atmosphere

    Definitely for the solo traveler

    The place has a charm that's hard to ignore! Viviana at the front desk was super helpful as she kindly carried my heavy suitcase upstairs and shared great tips about where to go around the city.

    It wasn't exactly a bargain but still worth the experience.

    comfortable atmosphere
    lack of elevator
    limited breakfast options

    I enjoyed the charming colonial architecture and spacious common areas that were easy to navigate. The staff were incredibly welcoming, and Viviana's assistance with my luggage made my stay even more comfortable.

    An elevator would greatly improve accessibility for seniors.
