Pros:

Quarto de excelente tamanho, boa qualidade da roupa de cama, toalhas e produtos. O café da manhã é excepcional, a qualidade do café mesmo é ótima! Pessoal muito educado, prestativo e solicito, localização extremamente central. Tem realmente uma escada pra subir no lobby, mas é bem tranquilo com mala de mão.

Cons:

O chuveiro demora bastante a esquentar, principalmente de manhã. E isso não é culpa do hotel, mas a plaza de armas é extremamente barulhenta, o dia inteiro e madrugada a dentro. Esteja preparado pra isso.

Perfecte locatie voor verblijf in Arequipa. Op centrale plein, vlakbij alles.
Pros:

Waren met 5 personen.
1 kamer was fantastisch met balkon en uitzicht op plein.
2e kamer was achterkant, met 2 heel kleine raampjes zonder enig zicht. Beetje donker en ingesloten maar wel heel ruim.
Maar verschil tussen de 2 kamers was wel groot.

Cons:

Kamer aan de achterzijde

Pros:

Location Great!

Cons:

No windows or aircon in the rooms. The room we stayed in was weirdly structured. There we 2 windows missing. Stairs to get there was hectic with bags, was a nightmare with no help from the staff to actually take them up. The door to the room didn't lock.
