    rooftop breakfast
    clean rooms

    The staff was super cute and helpful. Breakfast with fine rooftop views was a highlight. The cozy cleanup crew kept everything super clean. Loved being able to keep my bags at the desk during my mini trips. I enjoyed my stay!

    The breakfast is delicious and marvellous, offered with views of the volcanoes and amazing view, as example. The room is a decent size and amazing with hot showers. The property has a perfect location, next to the central area as well as the plaza.

    As we remember, there was no restaurant.

    Consider asking for a room away from the courtyard to minimize noise from other guests.

    perfect spot for city strolls and nearby landmarks

    The charming atmosphere and helpful staff made my stay nice, and being just a 15-minute walk from iconic sites like the Catedral de San Jose and La Merced Church provided me with ample opportunities for exploration throughout the city.

    spacious room
    delicious breakfast
    friendly staff
    septic smell
    noisy courtyard

    The spacious room allowed our family of four to settle in comfortably. Having hot and cold water in the bathroom is a big plus. Breakfast included a delicious variety, served with nice views from the terrace. We spotted the Fuego volcano erupting while enjoying our meal! A refreshing welcome drink set the tone for a pleasant stay. The staff were attentive and offered to provide fans for comfort in the warm room. The foul smell from the septic system occasionally lingered, especially when returning to the room after a day out. We also noticed some noise from the courtyard, likely from other guests. Great accommodations with some minor issues.

    delicious breakfast
    central location
    noisy environment

    The hotel is friendly and cute, especially for families and our dogs. The breakfast each morning was delicious, with a wide variety of options, and we enjoyed the lovely courtyard for some family time. This was a great central spot to explore Antigua!

    My kids wished for more soundproofing so we could enjoy our time more without interruptions.

    distant location
    noise disturbance
    parking inconvenience

    The staff provided really good service, accommodating odd-hour check-ins and offering quick laundry service. The breakfast featured a wide variety, including delicious options like soup, served on a rooftop patio with fine views. The location was a bit further from the city center than expected, requiring a 15-minute walk, and the rooms could use better soundproofing for a more peaceful experience. Some amenities, like the parking situation, weren't as convenient as hoped.

    Families find it decent

    The staff were friendly and always helped us, even with our kids running around. The breakfast was a highlight, loved having a variety of options while enjoying beautiful views.

    It was a bit on the pricier side , but for what we got, it was still acceptable.
