The hotel is in zona colonial & is A very nice boutique hotel indeed close to all tourist attractions. The main issue was the wifi as it was completely disastrous given it was disconnecting constantly and for someone like my self who works remote , it was far from ideal. Also very strange that they had a good breakfast included but no water was provided free which needs to be rectified as it seemed very silly. If they rectify these issues mainly with internet and breakfast it can be quite a nice stay indeed . The staff were very friendly but couldn’t assist with the internet issues & u can explicit lot of traffic noise given it’s on a Main Street

I liked the fact that the hotel was near the historic district and the port of the city. I did not like that there was water heating and water pressure issues, there was consistent construction on the floor that I stayed, which impact at the water, and my body was not conditioned to a firm bed, and finally, we were only allotted one towel per guest per day.
