I will continue to stay there when I can it's a charming old world hotel built around a courtyard in traditional colonial style. a Grand old lady that may have seen better days but is better with age for the nostalgia lover. very nice location not so noisy and next to a the river Cuale. a gem
It was our first time staying here and we enjoyed the property. It’s centrial to everthing. Great area for walking to stores and restaurants. The Bahia is steps away. We mostly will stay here again with our friends
I generally enjoyed my stay, but the wifi situation is simply untenable, if you need to spend time working while on vacation.
It doesn't extend beyond the door to your room. It works great in the common areas, but that's it. That's not a workable situation if you need privacy or quiet to get work done
To me the property is not worth it what I pay it's in downtown but the hotel is very dirty it needs to repairs too many things are not correct enough please tell me it's unsafe
The property is very old, has a definite smell. I ended up with a weird rash all over my neck so im thinking bed bugs on the pillow, beds are hard as a rock. Very loud. The bathroom has been renovated so that was nice. They're was coffee in the foyer until 930 am was suppose to be there until 11 so lucky we got some. Nice pool and outdoor area

It was ok. Pool area great. Friendly staff.Air conditioning not working.
Great settings in the old city.
One of the worst hotel stays ever. Definitely not a 3 star as advertised. Check in was tedious. The door to our room was wide open when we arrived. There were empty beer cans laying around on the patio. Washroom was tiny but had three floor levels which made for great tripping hazards in the night. When we ran the shower water poured out from under the shower stall into the bathroom. We had no blankets on our bed, just sheets. At first I thought that the one good thing was the view. We were a stones throw from the Malecon and looked out at The Bridge going into The romantique zone. Unfortunately the traffic and people noise was horrendously loud. To make matters worse they gave us ‘The Expedia Suite’ right below the night club/ bar and listened to pounding techno music and chairs and people stomping around above our heads. Shutting the windows didn’t help much but we did anyway and turned on the A/C which began dripping water in our heads as it was situated right above our bed. It was a night from hell. We checked out the next day despite having paid for two nights in advance via Expedia.
for an inexpensive hotel, it was fine. Provided drinking water and the pool and patio upstairs was nice. This was our second stay. Love the area and felt safe. Wifi in the lobby. Rooms were clean.

The hotel is in a great location, close to transportation and lots to see in walking distance. The staff was excellent, very helpful and friendly. The wifi is not great, and pretty much non existant in the rooms, but good in common areas. Kept very clean.
