“Great spot with a nice private room, roomy bathroom, AC, pool, and breakfast.”

8.7Verified guest

“We stayed in a fantastic place in a quiet, local area. The private room was spacious, and the big bathroom was a plus. Staff, especially Hector, made our stay memorable—friendly and accommodating, like a hotel or resort. The free hot breakfast with fresh fruit and juice was a bonus. Location was handy with a supermarket across the street and a 15-minute walk to the main tourist area. Only downside? Nothing—all good.”
