Overall, a pleasant stay. The hotel was centric and walkable to the city's center. The amenities and rooms were adequately stocked and the staff was friendly and helpful. Uber is an economic and accessible option to explore the rest of the city.

First, my check-in with desk clerk Fabiola was first rate. She was gracious and totally professional. She even carried my two bags up a flight of stairs and refused my tip. It's located just a few blocks from Plaza 24th de Septiembre, a favorite place for locals and tourists. Very clean and quiet place. And, hot water is almost instant. Very nice place at great prices.

This hotel has been closed. It is a scam. You should remove them from Expedia so that they can't solicit further travellers.

Good budget hotel. Ticks every box for basics: good front of house and cleaning staff; free toiletries; excellent WiFi; basic but tasty breakfast; reliable airport pickup. A 5-10 minute stroll to the city centre depending on pace.

Well after travelling in remote Andes, my own bath was a highlight. Having wifi and TV were nice. Place clean, they catered to my disabilities. Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Asked about a box and packing tape as suitcase getting overweight. Since use a cane they had a boy did the running around for me. Given excellent directions to post office and night market. This was a day of rest after 6 days in road tour and a new tour on the road the next day. I rebooked for two nights after my tour.

Comfortable & Worth the Stay

The apartment was massive and very comfortable. There was more than enough to be able to cook all your own meals. There was slight damage to the fridge and in the floor of the shower - but still everything worked well and was extremely well presented. It was near a supermarket and close to many other amenities.
