The staff here were so friendly and welcoming. The design of the hotel is very cool - bright and modern. We were able to walk everywhere and visited several cafés and restaurants in the area. We felt it was great value for the price and we would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful hotel with mix of modern styles. Quiet room had a calming aesthetic. Location was great on a quiet street close to lots of restaurants, shops and bisunesses. They assisted with arranging an airport taxi as well as transportation to another location. I would stay here again.
Would have like a more comprehensive overview of options available at the hotel when I checked in.

Location is perfect for a Centro stay, the rooms were clean, and a large king-sized bed was within a cozy unit with a separate shower and toilet. The room felt new within a well-maintained older complex that gave the right mix of comfort and history.
Nothing I could pick at

The staff was wonderful. Very thoughtful and considerate.
The room was a little bit small with little or no closet space. Was not able to put luggage away or all the clothes.

The hotel was in an excellent location within walking distance of all of the main attractions of the city. The staff were super friendly, and the jacuzzi in the room was a nice touch. We enjoyed the pool and the on-site library. The shower had great water pressure and plenty of hot water.
The pillows were a bit lumpy and the bed a bit firm, but other than that it was a comfortable stay.

Such great design, modern yet quaint. Had a Japanese feel. So clean and quiet. The three level library was gorgeous and peaceful. Service was great. Staff very kind. The patio and common areas cozy even in the rain. Shower and bathrooms very modern. Beds comfortable, crisp sheets, lots of pillows and very clean. Coming back soon since I'm a town away!
Nothing. Loved it all!

Very aesthetic interior design, perfect location, friendly and attentive staff, amazing amenities.
No windows in the room except for shower ventilation, we couldn’t turn of a light (but it didn’t bothered during the night).

The entire staff was very helpful and accommodating from the beginning of our stay. I am a quadriplegic, and traveling is not easy, but this hotel was wheelchair accessible and easy for me to get around. In front of the hotel, there are two steps with the push of a button, the first step goes down to the ground level, so that I could get on the platform and be elevated to the second step. I was also upgraded to a bigger room so that I could have more space to move around. The breakfast area is beautiful and the food was delicious. The location of the hotel is perfect because you are within walking distance of everything.
The only thing I would like is to have access to the pool area. There are multiple steps and no ramp to reach the pool, so I was not able to go up to the pool.

Location is great and the staff is exceptional
The bed and pillows could have been more welcoming and specially for tall people

The rooms are very small. It’s like a small box. The restaurant only serves breakfast and there is absolutely no alcohol served. The architecture is lovely. The facilities are lovely. The place is very clean and the staff are very helpful.

The location is perfect, very central and easily walkable. The hotel design is upscale and modern, the library and pool area are great, our room had a patio and jacuzzi which was a highlight.
Wish we had better instructions on how to use/heat our patio jacuzzi.
Not ADA friendly as there is no elevator to get to top floor rooms.

I think they could provide better toiletries. The quality of the shampoo and conditioner was just not that good.

I liked the architecture, decor, cleanliness, ease of check in, quiet location that is central to the historic city center, and good air conditioning.
No coffee maker or coffee in the room. No closet or suitcase stand in the room, no ice maker in the hotel accessible to guests, no mini fridge in room, restaurant open only limited hours, no extra pool towels by the pool, bees on the floor under the jacaranda tree.

The room had a large patio.
The room was very small and the bathroom was even smaller. No closet, but had a few shelves. While the the patio was large, the drapes needed to be closed for the afternoon and the patio was too hot to use, since it was directly exposed to the sun and had no shade.

I did not have breakfast as I left before it was available.
The hotel is small but nice and in a great location, however the room was tiny but had everything one would need and a very comfortable bed, the pool is much smaller than the photo shows in the add.

Very friendly and welcoming staff. The onsite restaurant is great too - really nice breakfasts. Location is perfect - very short walk into the centre. Whole hotel is very clean - didn't get chance to go into the pool but it looked inviting.

The staff was really nice and helpful at all times. Whenever you needed something they would be there. They were very friendly as well!
Couldn't use the pool at all. There were construction workers working everywhere and next to the pool so it was not nice to swim there. The beautiful library had books laid out all over the ground as well.

The hotel looks great. It has modern well designed rooms around a central patio with a small swimming pool at the back under a large tree for shade. It looks great.
The problem I had with this hotel was the noise. there were two main points to this and why I would not stay in this hotel again.
Firstly - Temporary issue - The hotel was having construction work completed at the time I was sold my room. Before and during check in, not once was this mentioned to me. They happily took my money knowing that the hotel was not up to standard. redecoration of rooms and common areas was under way with noise during the day. the room or the common areas could not be relaxed in with the construction noise. I complained to management who tried to play down the construction saying it was maintenance. Yet the noise of drilling / hammering was clearly heard during our discussion and the manager admitted it was unacceptable. The manager kindly offered me to stay in another hotel in town, which I accepted. This could have been avoided by informing me upon check in, rather than being dishonest.
Secondly - permanent issue - Most rooms face the central courtyard. Every conversation, laugh, luggage wheeled, laundry cart pushed- everything echos around the courtyard and is clearly heard in the room. this is bad design. It looks great, but it sounds terrible. at 7am when the staff start for the day talking and setting up tables and chairs for breakfast, this noise makes sleeping in late not an option. For this reason I would never stay here again. I can forgive the construction work, but the lack of sound proofing for each room is unacceptable.
