The property is beautiful and very centrally located, the staff is friendly and the areas around the property are safe and walkable distance for visitors who want to explore the city. The rooms need to be updated and the bathroom was below standard. There was mold and fungi growing from the walls and the bathtub was broken. There was also a funky smell coming from the bathroom almost like if there was some type of gas (sulfur) coming from the plumbing.

The staff was friendly. It is a nicely conserved building despite it being more than 400 years old. It comes with the basic amenities. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. There is AC in every room. It is a few meters from the center of the city. There are good restaurants nearby, museums around the corner, shopping all around that area, and the area is walkable. Taxis are always available outside the hotel ready to take you anywhere you want to go.

Needs lots of attention
This is a historic hotel with lots of originality, but old doesn’t mean it should be unkept. There was mold in the bathrooms, a mildew smell in the room, front desk staff seemed like they didn’t care, and the beds may be the original from the 1600s! We asked if they could turn on the chandelier lights in the lobby but it remained dark all night. So disappointed.

They didn't respected my reservation. I paid for that in expedia I gave them the reservation number and they said that Expedia didn't pay to them or make the reservation. I was pretty upset. I was feeling humiliated. They offered another room for more money. I want a reimbursement from Expedia because this was terrible experience. I walked to another at night time until I went to other hotel Hotel Morales.
