Great location

Fabulous location in the historic centro. Unfortunately, very noisy with street noise late into the night. Our room smelled a bit, though it was very clean. Staff very helpful and good service. The bed was comfortable. The breakfast in the rooftop restaurant very good, though it was pretty mych the same every day. Overall a good stay in a superb location.

This is a beautiful boutique hotel with a rooftop restaurant that has AMAZING views of the city. The staff is super courteous and helpful in both the hotel and the restaurant. The location is central with tons of restaurants, cafes, shops, markets, parks within walking distance. The hotel is across the street from one of the city's National Cathedrals, so expect to hear the church bells from time to time. It was a beautiful experience.

Nice, clean, look like newer beds. Nice linen on beds. Small spaces. We are senior citizens there is a nice view on 7th floor where elevator stops. If you want to go up from there a set of stairs
