    I loved the location, which was very convenient for exploring the city. The breakfast was fantastic, and the café area was really cozy, especially at night. Javier was the best and helped us out so much! It was also great that we could book tours...

    Very lovely place owned by a German couple. The place has everything you need. Lovely rooms with good shower. A Kantina with good food and very fair prices. It felt very safe.
