Great 1 Night Stay - We Will Return
Pros:

Breakfast was simple but fine for anyone who wanted to stay and eat at the hotel. I like that the hotel is attached to a coffee shop. We ordered coffees to go there. The lobby area is nice with all the plants. Very comfortable and cozy area to hangout.

Cons:

I didnt realize the hotel needed more notice to order larger taxis for the airport. Being asked this question during check in could have avoided some stress on the day we were traveling to the airport.

Pros:

He estado en varios hoteles en el centro y ninguno superará la ubicación, es muy acogedor salir del hotel y ver la vividez de la plaza principal.

Cons:

El hotel tiene ligeros detalles en cuanto a funcionalidad, el foco del baño tarda en encender y parpadea, el extractor parece que se irá volando y ya no dejan cafeteras en el cuarto. Los primeros 2 puntos me ha tocado en las 3 distintas habitaciones en las que he estado.

Pros:

Localidad, está en el centro historico de la ciudad.

Cons:

El cuarto que se nos asignó es muy chiquito, no proporsionan vasos ni agua ni cafetera como en otros hoteles donde me he hospedado a un precio mucho mas bajo.
Mi esposa creció en esa ciudad y siempre le llamó la atension el edificio y ahora que pudo entrar se llevó una gran desilucion.

Location good, amenities bad. Stay elsewhere.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Booking included deceptive photos that indicated an exterior balcony that the room didn’t have. The hotel was noisy due to the cafe downstairs until 11:30 pm. The towels were the worst I’ve ever seen in a hotel. The bathroom fan was so loud you’re better off doing your business in the dark.

Overall you’re paying good money for a bad hotel.

Yes the staff you interact with are friendly and the building nice but the downsides are such that I can’t recommend this hotel to my worst enemy.

Pros:

We love the location, especially close to Teatro Ricardo Castro. Cool and interesting old building. Is that city really over 450 years old?

Cons:

Would have preferred King bed. Want more info about the decorations with the little cups.
