Great pool area and breakfast. In a residential area. Super close to Albrook airport, which is why we chose this place. Would stay here again, but stay longer to enjoy the pool.

This is a great little boutique hotel. Check in was easy and the whole place is meticulously clean from the common area to the room. The bed was comfortable and the water in the shower was nice and hot, with good pressure. We would definitely recommend this accommodation.

This is a great value for the money. Simple, very clean rooms. The sheets smelled so fresh, that I just had to ask what detergent they were using.
