This was a great stay. Super clean, staff was outstanding and the day started with a top notch breakfast. Best coffee of our trip! The location was ideal for hiking and enjoying pubs and restaurants. Rooms are a bit tired and lounge furniture pretty lumpy… Would have been lovely to have a bit of outdoor seating to enjoy the views. But the upsides are of great value. Would stay again! Wonderful staff!!

Great stay!

We had a great stay. The hotel itself looks very nice and the room is very clean. The bed was comfortable. There was a mini fridge, safe, and a kettle with cups and teabags to make tea. Breakfast was plentiful and with good choices. Both Karina and Oriana were very helpful. And the rest of the staff are friendly. Location is amazing. Near restaurants, a supermarket, and close to the start of several hikes like Laguna De Los Tres. Would not hesitate to recommend.
