"Stayed here for a night. Orlando, the owner, welcomed us and showed us the room. He was very nice and hospitable. The room was clean, I liked the interior design of the suite we got. We met two kittens who were friendly. If you like cats, they will gladly enter your room. If you don’t, you might want to consider. They are very sneaky going inside, but they are cute.

"I was in the area solely to assess whether a suitable region to potentially retire to, and to see what was available for land purchase: thus I just needed basic accomodations...quiet for sleeping...comfortable bed...and clean. Las Cabinas Suenos met those needs. The owner Ledys replied promptly to all my queries and the check-in went smoothly."
