Great staff, I felt heard
Pros:

The room is tiny, not like the pictures. The hotel is beautiful and feels like new. The staff is great and after the first night (which was very noisy and I couldn’t sleep) did everything to make my stay better. The staff is great, I think they need a bit better management. The restaurant in the top floor is amazing, but closed to the public, half of the week for events

Parking was horrible, they opened at 7:00 AM so prepare yourself if you’re taking a early flight. Staff at Parking wasn’t helpful.

Is not worth staying here ...
For same or less money you get more at other places.
And uber get you to this area for 5 bucks

Pros:

I didn’t like that the parking lot was not in the building you have to park a block away. Is not easy when you have big luggage. We did get help but walking in the street with luggage I didn’t like. Also what I didn’t like was that I ordered a drink at the rooftop bar and when I was paying my drink the bartender said you have to leave tip. I was like what now is mandatory leaving tip.

Pros:

Very clean, perfect location .. walking distance to all the main attractions, coffee shops, downtown attractions. Traditional breakfast was included and quite delicious. Was disappointed.. Web does not state parking is available & we were not informed that it was available until an hour before check in .. we were already on our way in an uber.

Pros:

I had a wonderful stay at Cardedeu in the Historic Center. The hotel has a perfect balance of modern comfort and the charm of the historic district. The rooms were clean, stylish, and very comfortable, and the staff went above and beyond to make the stay welcoming. I especially appreciated the location.

The atmosphere felt safe and relaxing, and the common areas were beautifully designed. Breakfast was fresh and delicious, and the service was consistently attentive.

I would highly recommend Cardedeu Historic Center to anyone visiting San Salvador who wants both convenience and comfort with a touch of boutique elegance.

Pros:

Very nice property with wonderful customer service and ideal location! We enjoyed walking around the evening we stayed there. We felt very safe and found a fun place to eat and toured both the National Palace and Library - highly recommend both! This hotel is literally on the front row to all of the amazing progress El Salvador is making. I found this part of the trip very inspirational.

Pros:

What I didn’t like was that the breakfast wasn’t good at all for the price of the hotel and think they should have more options of breakfast and why not have the hotel guest eat at the restaurant that is in the first floor
