The was a unique place. It is quaint. The beds are hard. There are little to no adventures and the WiFi is spotty. This is in a comfortable neighborhood.
The hotel is fine, our room was on a second floor walk up, there's a Japanese restaurant in the hotel. Our room overlooked the park, which was nice, but there was a fair bit of Street noise.
From the outside we weren't sure we would like this hotel, but it was a very good experience. Our room on the top floor was clean and, although we had a problem with hot water for the shower, the staff promptly fixed it. It was a cool-funky room right across the Street for Sabana Park. Breakfast was very good and the price was also. We booked for 2 nights, but took a taxi to the airport at 10:00pm so didn't stay over for both, but because of the price we elected to pay for 2 nights and enjoy a hot shower and relaxation before the long fligt home. The staff were helpful and very nice.

When we arrived at the hotel from the airport it was apparently closed. We could not get in and they would not answer the phone. Our taxi driver had to call around to different hotels to get up into one last minute.

Bon rapport qualité prix avec petit déjeuner copieux mais chambre qui donne a proximité de la route. Boule quies oblige..
Hôtel basique mais suffisant pour un passage dans la capitale.
Une étagère dans la salle de bain est indispensable pour poser ses affaires.
Le petit déjeuner est correct.

This hotel has seen better days, still nice and clean, except the windows, shower is interesting good luck finding hot. Staff have good enough English. Restaurant is Korean/ Japanese fusion, that was ok, sushi looked better .
Es el mejor hotel en el que me he quedado en mucho tiempo. Los dueños y el personal son muy amables y el lugar cumple de más con lo esperado, tiene encanto propio y es en verdad una joya. Muy recomendable, excelente calidad, limpieza, precio, trato. Espero volver a hospedarme en este hotel.
staff was very nice and helpfull, though not very fluent in English. It would've been nice to have a longer string to control the lights and fan. now you have to stand on the bed to pull it. Also it would've been nice to have a trash can in lobby and outside (for smokers).
