This property is very charming and the staff where great especially Ricardo! What I did not like about this property is the safety of the room. The one lock on the inside was a rusty old chain that was screwed into the wood trim of the wall. I could have ripped it off myself. I saw the neighboring room and the lock was the same. I think Kavia hotels should step it up a notch or two in that regard! This hotel was also very noisy. I think all inner courtyard hotels in the area are noisy as any noise echoes through the halls. It adds to the charm but bring ear plugs or expect a number of wake ups.

The hotel is right in the heart of the city. Just a few blocks in any direction will keep you busy day and night. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly. They go out of their way to provide good service. The hotel is obviously old, but that is part of its’ charm. It is historic and culturally grand, and they keep it in decent condition. But if you are looking for modern perfection, then go stay at the Hilton. I prefer to be where the people treat you like you are part of the family.

Todo fue genial. El único problema menor fue que el WIFI no llegaba a la habitación, así que tuve que ir al pasillo para usar el wifi y hacía mucho calor afuera, pero me quedaría allí de nuevo.
