Convenient Location
The hotel is located in an excellent location, within easy reach of most major tourist attractions, including Microcentro, a short stroll away. Canal 13 is only a block away and Obelisk is about 12 blocks. Guests found the hotel’s proximity to public transportation very convenient, with the subway station very close by. There are also plenty of restaurants, and convenience shops nearby. In addition, Jorge Newberry Airport is only six miles away.

Wake Up Call
Don’t miss out on the amazing coffee. Even guests that were less than satisfied with their stay said the coffee was very delicious.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Boring Breakfast
While the coffee was great, guests weren’t too pleased with the complimentary breakfast. The selection is basic, very limited, and consists mainly of bakery items. In addition, guests say the spread is pretty much the same every day.
negative:
Small Spaces
The rooms are quite small, with the bed taking up almost half the room in most cases. Walls surround the bed on three sides, with very little room to move around – most guests say it’s impossible to walk between the bed and the walls. In addition, the shower is also reported to be very tight.
negative:
Noise Issues
Some of the rooms are quite noisy, especially those located next to the breakfast area, and soundproofing between rooms is not the best. In addition, the hotel is located on a busy street, so traffic noise can be problematic too.
