Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
We were in a small "comfort" room. Barely enough space to walk around the double bed. Space poorly planned. Bathroom cramped. No windows. (Other, larger, rooms may have been more pleasant.) We moved across the street to the EXCELLENT Hotel Histórico Centro. Twice the room rate, but worth it, for pleasant surroundings and unbelievable staff service.
