I really liked how clean this property was. It was beautiful inside. My only complaint was my room was directly across from the lobby, which made me feel like anything could be heard in my room.

The room was basic but fine. On an internal courtyard near to stair so the noise of other guests talking-when coming in during the evening/night was considerable. The rooftop restaurant is beautiful, with a clear view of all the volcanoes today. The “incluido” breakfast was excellent. Staff was helpful with arranging my shuttle to the lake. I will come back.

Great central property. Walkable to so much central. Greated with cold hibiscus tea. Staff very friendly. Nice rooftop patio. Breakfast and drinks on patio so nice with view of volcanos. Our room had no windows looking out so that was different. Walls also very thin so could hear everything in the room next door. But this is typical in Antigua. Beds comfy. Great plush towels.

The location is fantastic—you can easily walk anywhere in the city. The rooftop restaurant offers stunning views while dining, and the complimentary breakfast, including vegetarian options, is a great bonus. Lily at the front desk was incredibly friendly and helped me book the Pacaya Volcano tour and a shuttle to Panajachel. Overall, a wonderful stay, and I would definitely return!

Nice small hotel about two blocks from the town square. Convenient to restaurants and shopping. Being in the centro area it is a bit noisy, especially the rooms that face the inner courtyard. Our friend had a room facing outward, and it didn’t have a window.
