Good Experience

The casita was exactly what I was looking for. Cozy for 1 (or 2) people. Very clean. Located near the National Park and close to the best eateries in town. I would come back again.

Liked: Communication
This is not a one bedroom it’s a tiny studio. It has one full bed, one twin bed (that you pull out from the closet) and one couch. For 4 people we were pretty snug. However, we were glad that this place had a kitchen versus staying at a hotel. The sheets were not clean either.
