This hotel is a gem. It is a renovated and repurposed magical old building with a beautiful fountain in the middle and a courtyard bedroom layout all facing a lovely garden. It’s tranquil, charming and extremely well updated. Great for a price. We regret that we didn’t get the daily breakfast. So if it’s an option, we highly recommend grabbing it. Located in a terrific part of the city surrounding colonial’s most magical features and close to the ocean

This is a beautiful little hotel and it offered a very nice breakfast. Our room, however, was a little worn (the sofá appeared quite dirty) and the room smelled musty. The location was excellent.
