7.5Verified guest“I spent two wonderful weeks here. The neighbourhood is lively with great food and entertainment. Staff spoke English well and were incredibly helpful – one spent an hour on the phone with LATAM to help me change a flight. The bed was extremely comfortable, and my private room with a sunny balcony was always clean. The design was nice, everything looked new, and the Wi-Fi was reliable. Coffee, tea, and water were available 24/7, and the homemade cake was a treat. The terrace was a nice spot to relax, and having a fridge in the room was handy.”
