"Pros: The location was perfect - directly in the pedestrian road in the colonial town centre, so you can walk to all the sights and also walk home at night. Superfriendly staff. They organized a tour to other towns and laundry service for us (you have to pay extra for that, of course.) The rooms were beautiful and spotlessly clean. Breakfast is in a nice restaurant right on the other side of the street (contintental or local food) - sit in the shade, sip your coffee and do people-watching. There are also nice sitting areas inside. It was also nice and cool. Superclean. Cons: The hotel is built in Spanish-Portuguese style - the rooms open to the central room like a courtyard. This makes it very safe, but all sounds in the courtyard carry like street noise. Unfortunately, most flights arrive after midnight, so whenever guests are coming in, there are some sounds for about 15-20 minutes until everyone has settled, and there is nothing the hotel can do about this. There is an easy solution to this, however - simply close the window at night. We are super sensitive to noise and could sleep perfectly." ~Nina
