Reviews
I booked a room and had to leave the next day as the odor in the room was HORRIBLE
The mattress was totally worn out. That’s not the worst part they gave me a receipt for one night for $114 and charge my account $260.41!!!! I could not believe my eyes when I went into my bank account. They said it was a mistake but if I had not check my bank app
I would have been robbed by this people!
I have yet to see the credit on my bank account as I had to fly back home!
DO NOT BOOK HERE Abd if you do PLEASE check your bank account!

Rooms are small but very comfortable. The beds, pillows, and bedding are outstanding—truly hotel-level luxury (I wanted to recreate it at home). Simple, tasteful décor. A/C and an in-room safe are provided.
Note: the building has three stories and no elevator, but porters handled our luggage up the stairs without issue. The walk-in shower tends to splash water everywhere, which was the main downside.
Location is excellent—easy walking to historic sites, shopping, and restaurants. Overall, a great stay if you value comfort, charm, and location over room size
The place is clean, big and a excellent service. ask for a Pisco de Chinola ✨
