Beautiful hotel tucked away from the touristic downtown but still close enough to walk to. The room was clean, comfortable and had a great courtyard view. The restaurant/bar on site was convenient with a descent spread for breakfast. There was parking on site, but you may want to call ahead and reserve a spot if possible.

The hotel was very nice and comfortable. As well convenient for walking in and around the town. The only thing that would make it a awesome place would be air conditioning in your room. The fan works but nice to have air conditioning.

There weren't many American tourists at the hotel, probably because the hotel doesn't have air conditioning but the room was clean and large. The buffet breakfast (at least on Sunday morning) was fantastic and included with my booking.
