Centrally located, perfect for walking around. Front desk staff was professional. Unfortunately the room was located above the restaurant. The cooking smells were constant. Needed to run the AC all day and night to help alleviate the smell. However the AC was loud and didn’t work using the auto function. So it ran loudly all night.

Great staff and care--horrible bed!

We had a great trip, and the staff were friendly and helpful--especially when the AC was not working and our room was hotter than outside. The rooms were pleasant and spacious (had the suite with small sitting area) but the mattress was awful. We'd spent 10 days in Ecuador and of the various accommodations, this was by far the worst. Also, frosted glass bathroom doors need to go.
