    The building is older but charming, the furniture in the bedroom was a bit eclectic and older.

    Great breakfast, beautiful inside garden, I felt like we woke up in the jungle with the birds singing in the garden. We got in late 9:30 pm, were able to grab some food at a little Mercado close by and came back to dine in their outdoor bar area, lovely.

    There was quite a noise in our room. Also breakfast was really basic and you need to pay for extra eggs, pancakes, ...

    The garden was amazing, especially for the kids.

    The bed was a bit short for me (6'5"/197cm), and you could hear when a nearby room's water heater turned on. This hotel was in a pleasant neighborhood, but is not significantly close to the international airport. You'll still need a cab to get there, but it'll cost less than from downtown hotels (around $35).

    The hotel employee who greeted us at the desk was wonderful. He helped get us to our room and arranged for a 5 AM taxi to get us to the airport the next morning. I'm sorry we missed the breakfast, but the hotel put on a pleasant show during our brief stay. The central courtyard was pleasant and the hotel was generally quiet and peaceful.

    Room, furniture , bathroom outdated. There is hot water but low pressure. There is no private verandah/balcony although photo makes it seem like balcony is adjoining or part of to room. Maybe it;s my room but the AC was not working well, feels like fan only, even though it says cool mode.

    Good, safe location. CLose to the US Embassy. Some shops, restaurants within walking distance. Helpful staff. Good price. Nice garden/pond area.

    The air conditioning does not work very well, and you also have to open the window curtain for the air to flow. The mattress of the main bed is old and worn, it should be changed.

    The location, the price and the friendliness of the staff. The shower and TV were also good. They upgraded my room for free.

    There were a couple things that I didn't care for. I didn't like having to climb the steep stairs with four kids under 5 and carry our luggage up. Although there was plenty of space and beds, the beds were not very comfortable. Also, there were no fans, which would've helped A lot cause the AC doesn't really cool the front room.

    Comfortable little place. The lobby/ restaurant was clean and gave you a welcoming feeling. The owners were great and there if we needed anything. Our young kiddos loved to watch the fish and the birds in the garden area. It was about 20 min from the airport and within walking distance to restaurants and a Super.
