    Friendly family run hotel, clean rooms, it was relatively quiet compared to other hotels we stayed in, but maybe it was not fully booked ;) staff was helpful even though they didn’t really speak English! Bonus: There was a cute cat!

    Ruca Nel is a very cozy accomodation with a beautiful view from the breakfast room. The hosts are the most kind and helpful people and we felt very welcomed and would definitely stay there again.

    The family of Jorge welcomed us warmly and took good care of us. The room is simple, clean and cosy. The house is a 5 minutes drive to town and there are also good restaurants nearby. We enjoyed our stay. Good exchange rate available and that was...
