Beautiful rooms and terrace. Friendly staff and availability to wash your clothes, get some coffee or tea in the shared areas. Everything is super tidy and clean. We finally got some good nights of sleep, the bed was very comfortable. Walking distance to the main square and Doña Vales food spot. At night we preferred to take a taxi through.

This is a lovely modern guest house with a really spacious room, a comfy bed and pillows and the laundry service was a huge bonus. The shared spaces were well maintained - the rooftop was perfect to get some morning sun before heading out and the cupboards and fridge were both well stocked for breakfast and snacking. It was about a 15 min straight walk up to the main central area, with plenty of taxis available if you don't fancy the walk home in the evening. They kindly provided earplugs in the room in case of any noise outside, but we didn't have any issues and had undisturbed sleep!

This is easily one of the best places I’ve every stayed at. The superior double room on the ground floor (room 1) is way bigger than the 20 sqm as described on Booking.com, beautifully decorated and has everything you need and more. There was complimentary water, coffee, tea, snacks, juice, milk etc. Nice detail was the room diffuser (scented sticks) which of course depends on your taste if you like it or not but I loved it (I believe it was a patchouli blend). The bed is super comfortable, the rain shower is very warm and has a lot of pressure. The room has 2 adjacent (private) little patios which you don’t really use but it just looks beautiful and allows for a lot of fresh air to come in. I read some comments about the noise at night but I barely heard anything and I had both patio doors and the bathroom window open all night. Communal roof top and co-working space downstairs have same complimentary snacks as the room (plenty of water). The laundry service is also complimentary (which I have never seen anywhere else) and they even hang dry your shirts if you don’t want them to put them in the dryer. Location is indeed a bit of a walk to the center but I didn’t mind at all, it’s perfectly safe at night as well. Cannot recommend this place enough!

Super hôtel avec des chambres confortables, très bien équipées. On y trouve tout le nécessaire pour le petit déjeuner, et un service de lavage des vêtements inclus dans le séjour. La terrasse est superbe. Il faut compter 10’ de marche jusqu’au centre historique dans une rue passante et animée, donc sans risque de sécurité.
