Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The building is a beautiful and charming example of colonial Spanish architecture, complete with two enclosed "courtyards". The complimentary breakfast included eggs with choice of veggies and preparation, yogurt with copious fresh fruit and granola, a selection of fresh breads, fresh squeezed fruit juice, and choice of delicious coffee or hot chocolate. The staff members were very friendly and helpful; most spoke English, all spoke Spanish. The location was within several minutes walking distance of the center of the Historic District (restaurants, cathedrals, museums, markets).Our room was small but we managed nicely with creative use of the closet, bedside tables, and bathroom storage.

The hotel is perfect. It is well ubicated, the only thing they can improve is abolut de courtains, they doesn´t close perfectly and it is easy to see other people what is happening inside the room.

Everything is very clean and well maintained. Staff is friendly. Free breakfast is very satisfying. Only drawback is the noisy wood floors make it hard to quietly walk around at night, but not a deal breaker.
