Loved our stay here! The staff was so nice and accommodating (letting us check in much earlier than check out). The room was clean, beautiful, and air conditioned. Not being used to the humidity we are most thankful for that! The only thing I’d say is that the shower doors were not able to close all the way so water got out and made the floor super wet so we felt bad leaving it like that. Other than that, the breakfast was delicious and we will definitely be using them again when and if we come back!

Great stay, great front desk! Overall, I loved the place, but it's about 20-30 minutes' walk to the city center. On the plus side, it's nice being outside the chaos of the city center. The staff are amazing and the breakfast area is so cozy and feels local. 10/10
