It’s a overrated “hotel”
Pros:

Quiet

Cons:

I think is overrated, it’s a complex for weddings or celebrations where the family could stay, they don’t have pool or nice restaurants, they send you to porta hotel to use pool restaurants and it’s cheaper and it has all in the same place, I recommend use this hotel instead

Dunkles Zimmer ohne Ausblick in schönem Hotel
Pros:

Tolle Dachterrasse, gutes Essen , freundliches Personal, stilvolle Einrichtung

Cons:

Viele Zimmer haben keinen Blick aus dem Fenster, sondern direkt gegen eine Wand. Für so ein dunkles Zimmer sind 300 Dollar pro Nacht völlig überzogen - das ganze nennt sich dann Courtyard-View..

Pros:

Our family had a fantastic stay at this Pensativo House Hotel. From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming, professional, and attentive. The check-in process was smooth and quick, and I was pleasantly surprised by how clean and comfortable the room was. The bed was cozy, the amenities were well thought out, and everything was spotless.

One of the highlights was the breakfast – fresh, delicious, and with plenty of options for everyone. The location was also perfect, close to great restaurants and local attractions, but still quiet enough to relax.

We definitely will be back to Pensativo House and recommend this hotel
