5/5 Marc V. 7 years ago on Google
I
spent
four
nights
here.
This
is
a
gorgeous
old
(huge)
home,
with
a
more
modern
wing,
converted
into
a
hotel.
The
location
is
excellent,
just
about
1-1/2
blocks
away
from
the
main
square,
and
just
past
the
plaza
is
the
cathedral
and
a
long
street
lined
with
restaurants,
bars,
hotels,
massage
spas,
gift
shops,
etc.
The
hotel
itself
is
fronted
by
a
fairly
small
bar
and
a
reception
area
in
a
garden-like
courtyard
with
a
pretty
fountain.
There
is
plenty
of
comfortable
seating
around
this
courtyard,
which
connects
to
a
much
larger
inner
courtyard
where
the
swimming
pool
and
the
restaurant
are
located,
along
with
more
seating.
Around
this
courtyard
are
guest
rooms,
on
the
ground
level
and
a
second
level.
My
room,
right
next
to
the
pool,
was
enormous,
with
two
full
beds
in
a
huge
space
in
which
I
could
have
held
a
party
for
all
the
other
guests.
It
contained
nice
old
furniture,
including
a
small
armoire
with
a
large,
secure
metal
safe
and
coat
hangers.
The
bathroom
contained
two
areas,
each
the
full
length
of
the
room,
with
a
toilet
and
sink
area
(good
amount
of
counter
space)
in
the
first
area
and
a
shower
you
must
see
to
believe
in
the
second
area.
This
shower,
with
a
cobblestone
floor,
was
so
huge
that
it
essentially
had
a
dressing
area,
with
a
small
wooden
table.
I
had
lots
of
nice
hot
water
and
plenty
of
room
in
which
to
dry
off,
put
lotions
on,
and
dress!
To
top
it
off,
the
wall
of
this
shower
area
was
decorated
floor
to
(high)
ceiling
with
a
beautiful
painted
mural
of
jungle
foliage
and
macaws.
This
wall,
however,
does
not
extend
all
the
way
up
to
the
high
roof.
It
is
open
to
the
adjoining
room,
so
I
heard
lots
of
water
running
(my
friend
showering).
This
did
not
bother
me,
but
what
did
was
the
sound
of
festive
firecrackers
(ubiquitous
in
Central
America)
at
night.
In
my
room
I
did
not
hear
any
noise
from
people
outside,
but
the
guests
were
pretty
mellow.
The
pool
is
big,
more
than
enough
to
do
some
swimming,
and
the
best
end
of
the
day
to
cool
down
after
long
day
walks.
There
are
three
lounge
chairs
with
padding
and
two
other
padded
chairs.
The
dinner
we
had
there
was
excellent,
but,
looking
at
the
menu
for
possibly
eating
on
my
own
dime,
it
seemed
a
bit
pricey.
Not
out
of
line
for
a
touristy
area,
but
more
than
I
would
expect
in
a
developing
country.
Breakfast
is
chosen
off
the
menu
and
is
served,
rather
than
a
buffet.
My
only
issue
was
that
there
was
only
one
towel,
but
asked
at
the
reception
desk
and
was
quickly
and
graciously
given
what
I
needed.
I
very
highly
recommend
this
lodging.
