The hotel is small and intimate. As the house is a renovated historic one it can be noisy as doors have automatic locks and the sound insulation is poor. Staff are helpful and the hotel’s position in the old time is a good one.

Awesome location in the historic part of the city. Shops and dinning options all around. Close to the water. The hotel is an old colonial house that has been completely modernized. It’s beautiful. I had the single room that though small, was well appointed and cozy. The price was phenomenal for the value.

Had a great stay here! Absolutely loved the hotel. There’s a rooftop patio where you can sit and relax. Everything in the town is walkable from the hotel. The rooms were really nicely decorated and very comfortable. The breakfast had an assortment of fruit, breads/pastries, and meats and cheeses. Most of the tourists only do day trips, so it’s nice to spend an evening strolling around town when it’s less busy. All in all a great stay and would definitely return!

The house is an historic mansion that has been modernized but kept all the charm of the past. The ceilings in the lobby are at least 15 feet high! Our room was big and had huge windows on both sides, which was beautiful. A suggestion to the management: put blackout shades on the window side that gets the morning sun. It gets light early in summer.
The location is very convenient being in the historic area. There are loads of good restaurants within a 10 minute walk.
Some tips: the streets are paved with cobblestone and the sidewalks rough, so pulling luggage from the bus station or ferry terminal can be challenging. It can also be noisy at night with music and shows located nearby.
They provide a free shuttle to a sister property that has a pool, winery, and restaurant. We spent a hot afternoon there lounging by the pool.
Shoutout to Paulo, who speaks excellent English, for arranging our taxi and visit to Finca del Sacramento.

Very noisy...clean and good design...but no rest.
We paid full price for a standard room. Checkin was fast, lobby looked great. We were taken to our room, #4, which was literally right next to the lobby front desk.
Our room had vintage double pane door with glass. Room looked great and very clean.
The problem is that door is the only window/door and it is looks straight into the lobby. In the morning we were woken up by the noise of the lobby.

Well located, really nice hôtel. I would probably still book the same hotel, the only 2 downsides of my stay were the weak internet/wifi connection, and the soundproofing of the room, while being aware soundproofing an heritage building can be challenging if not impossible without altering the charm.

Charged twice for stay
Prepaid for our one night stay when booking. Arrived at property and was asked for a credit card hold (fine, usual practice) but realised after checking out the next day that we were charged again for a second time even though we had already paid. Contacted hotel who said they will investigate but then never replied after even after many follow ups. Very poor service and untrustworthy.

O quarto é limpo, confortável e o prédio do hotel é muito bonito. Senti falta de um frigobar no quarto
Alem disso, se ouve muito os barulhos externos, p. ex. pessoas caminhando no corredor.
De modo geral, gostamos e recomendamos.
