Room was a schosh small, the bathroom was amazing and spacious. The rooftop terrace for breakfast was truly spectacular with a great view of Fuego Volcano. The courtyard was quaint. Bring your own water to brush your teeth with. Very close to the square, but away enough the noise isn’t bothersome. Breakfast is included

AC was making a loud popping sound the whole time it was on. The noise from the street was excessive and I could not sleep at all. The bathroom is very small and cramped. Overall the service was great but unfortunately I was unhappy with the noise level.

I loved this hotel! It has AC! The locals think 65-75 degrees is chilly but I sure enjoyed sleeping with my AC on. You wont find many properties with this amenity. My friends were staying in 4 star hotels in the area and had to leave their windows open to get fresh air. 😂. The hotel was in a central location with many restaurants around. The breakfast included was yummy. Sheets were soft and the water was american standard hot (after 5 min). I would stay here again.

While I found the service from the staff to be exceptionally friendly and accommodating, the bathroom setup was a bit inconvenient with limited space. I also wished for more mirrors in the rooms. On the bright side, the breakfast was truly spectacular, and the overall service was top-notch. Despite the minor inconveniences, I would consider returning to the hotel for the warm hospitality and memorable breakfast experience.
