Both the hosts were wonderful and very helpful. The breakfast was lovely and their restaurant recommendations were spot on. We had a wonderful 2-night stay!"

Posada de la Flor

10/10 Excellent

"I was so pleasantly surprised by this cute little hotel. I booked 2 extra nights in colonia and got this hotel last minute for half the price of anything else in town. The staff were so kind and welcoming, and the rooms were warm, clean, and cozy. The free breakfast, while simple, was another very nice bonus for an affordable stay. The only thing at all I wish the rooms had would be a mini fridge to store beverages and restaurant leftovers etc… I would definitely stay here again."
