Staff were extremely helpful and friendly.Ideal location. Although we did not expect large, the room was smaller than expected with just enough room for the double bed. Everything was spotlessly clean though and we could not recommened the staff enough.

The property was amazing is right in front of the old court there is everything going on right there but you close the windows cause he has a window if you choose to stay enough in front of a room with the front view is amazing. You don’t hear nothing once the windows are closed no matter how loud it’s outside. It’s beautiful. Everything was so nice. People was very nice. Guillermo was an amazing person. Amazing and Nadia an amazing person too. We really appreciate the help. Thank you so much. Will come back soon.

The location was perfect. We thought it might be noisy but the glazing on the windows meant we slept really well. The breakfast was delicious and really set us up for the day. The staff were very helpful and the room was spotless and comfortable. The only thing that would have improved the stay would be tea and coffee facilities in the bedroom.

Nice room and building located well in the old port, but the lack of a lift up to the reception floor was tough with heavy suitcases after a long travel. The room was spacious enough and had an amazing view, however there was no fridge and no kettle. The air conditioning didn’t work. Staff were pleasant at check in and check out and the common area looked nice and clean also. Housekeeping cleaned our room / changed towels and bedding despite us only staying one night which was good to know the hotel room was clean.
Sunset view from the room window.
A nice touch on the bed at arrival.
