The room was clean and comfortable until we found a cockroach on the nightstand. The staff was friendly and helpful. The common area kitchen could use some sprucing up. The refrigerator was full of half used products and could use a good cleaning.
the hotel itself was really cute. we loved the room itself, but the exterior bathroom had cockroaches. overall, the room (for the external bathroom) was really clean and nice, but the bathroom, with the bugs at night, was not the best. loved the location as well.

Broken Marble steps that the hotel could not repair because of it being a Heritage site. Small rooms. Noisy streets in Caseo Viejo. Rooms don’t have good lighting and the shade was broken. Staff however were good and accommodating.
The room was nice, once we had running water all was good. Lost power in the early evening but it came back on relatively quickly. There was an all night celebration going on down the street so lots of noise but otherwise a very nice hotel!
Didn’t like the location of the room (basement) I could hear everyone walking outside and the music that kept playing nearby. Other than that the room was comfortable
Staff is great and all speak English. No fridges in the room but there is a big community fridge. The floor in the room was not in the next shape. All else was good.

The hotel was clean, safe, and accessible to many things in the area.
I love old buildings that have interesting architecture, arched doorways, stone stairwells, etc. the Inn has a lovely common room area with kitchen facilities.
