Overall, it’s an excellent place for tourism purposes.
Pros:

Very convenient location for those interested in the historic city center. The property is very clean, the rooms are clean and recently renovated, and the shower and toilet facilities make a very good impression. I especially appreciated the friendliness and attentiveness of the staff.

Cons:

On the downside, the sound insulation is weak. Loud noises inside the building and from the street can disturb your sleep at night. Light sleepers may want to bring earplugs 🙂

Bien
Pros:

Le personnel d'accueil a été super gentil. La chambre très propre et proche du centre historique à pied. On nous as donné une couverture en plus car nous avions froid.

Cons:

Chambre pas bien grande compliqué pour 2 grosse valises. Il n'y a pas de clim, ni de chauffage. Nous n'avons pas voulu nous aventurer le soir dans les rues adjacentes car pas très accueillante.

Gran ubicación
Pros:

Me gusto la ubicación, esta cerca de todo en el centro histórico de la cuidad

Cons:

El hotel es muy bello, tipo colonial, con acabados muy clasicos de la epoca pero pareciera que no le interesa mucho invertir en mantenimiento, toallas, sabanas y almohadas. Me tocaron toallas amarillas y rotas de lo vieja que estaban, sabanas manchadas y colchas suber viejas. Si invirtieran un poco en detalles la experiencia seria mas gradable.
