Pros:

Location is excellent within a minute walk to the busier streets, there was a hostel next door with music playing in the day and evening but stopped at about 10:00. It was nice having music playing:)
The mattresses were a bit firm but we found them very comfortable. The covered rooftop area is fantastic and the pools were great!
Breakfast was good, cereal, yogurt, fruit, juice, coffee/tea, toast and eggs.
Front desk staff were super nice:). We were able to leave our luggage with them for a couple of hours after checking out as we had time before our boat pick-up to Boccachica and didn’t want to haul our suitcases around.
Overall a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend to others!

Cons:

The hot water in our room was not regulated. A couple of times we couldn’t getvthe burning hot water to switch to cold. No matter which way the tap was turned.

Excelente ubicación
Pros:

La ubicación es muy buena , está todo muy cerca y a pesar de lo concurrido que es el sector de Getsemani, se siente poco ruido . Puedes caminar a todos los lugares históricos . Lo recomiendo al 100% . Por otra parte, el personal es muy amable y atentos .

Cons:

Me gustó todo , solo puedo decir como detalle que hay que considerar que la calle está en reparaciones lo cual no permite el ingreso del Uber en la calle pero son detalles menores .
