    It is far away from the center of town if you want to go out to eat or walk around the main street. The room is pretty hot and the fan does not cool it off as much

    The hotel is great and has a beautiful view from the second floor common area. The breakfast is good and we were able to use the fridge in our stay which was very helpful

    Don't think they clean and restock the toilets enough. Our room faced the courtyard so is quite loud and not much space in there.

    Nice relaxed atmosphere, quiet and peaceful. Staff make you a packed breakfast for excursions, facilities are decent too.

    Well located and great place to stay. My room was ready even before check-in time and because ei left early morning they even packed up my breakfast. I don't understand some of the previous comments...everyone was super nice, friendly and helpful, and internet worked very well...3 different connections were available. Its a really great place to stay

    Hard to control the shower temperature, it would sometimes heat the sink as well. The bathroom windows opened to the kitchen, so no deal in opening them (one could not really be opened, it led to the back of a kitchen cabinet). Room also had no private windows so we had to sleep with them closed. Bed was not the best, but not bad. WiFi was very hit and miss since our room was in a separate building from the main hotel.

    The only room I could find in the city that didn't have those awful plastic curtains on the shower. The shower is separated from the bathroom by a brick half wall, which is great. Staff were great. Since everybody leaves early for tours, the staff offers a packed breakfast the night before if you ask. Place is some 10 minutes from center. There were no restaurants nearby at night but it's close enough to go to the center and back.

    For some reason, despite staying four nights, we didn’t get a change of towels during our stay.

    Lovely staff who were very helpful. Room was simple but very adequate. It’s a quieter part of San Pedro, which we enjoyed.

    The decoration style is very simple and cultured.

    Great location. We stayed at there for two nights. Super nice people working there even they don’t speak English, we used Google translate to communicate 😂. We booked a suite with private bathroom and it was clean as shown in the pictures. Breakfast are included. We didn’t have breakfast there on the first day because of our trip but they prepared sandwiches and drinks and snacks for us. The second morning we really enjoyed our breakfast in there hostel. The gave us the garage to use for overnight. I rated every thing to the top, even after hiking in the desert we needed showers and there’s not enough water, it’s understandable and forgivable in the desert. Thanks for allowing us to stay.

    The room could get a bit stuffy, especially after the afternoon sun heated up the courtyard. A fan would have been appreciated.

    Good location an easy walk from the centre of town. Good kitchen facilities, decent breakfast (including a take-away breakfast if you're up and out early for a tour). Room was comfortable, would stay here again.

    They warn you about this after you book the property, but the Wi-Fi didn’t work at all in our room. The location is not the closest one to city center, but totally walkable distance, and it’s near minimarkets and restaurants, so not a big deal. Breakfast ingredients could be a bit better. Having real fruit juice for example.

    The staff is the high point. Raul and the others were beyond kind to us, always available to help with whichever requests we had. Also, very clean, comfortable bed, hot showers and super quiet at night. Breakfast is simple in ingredients and options, but very tasty - the huevitos are prepared individually for each guest, that’s a plus compared to a buffet.
