Nice 🏊♀️ swimming pool, don't miss the sun rise from this place.
Special large towels for the pool. Bathrobe, I didn't ask if it can be used outside at the beach
Very nice hospitality from the British gentleman who own and runs the place.
It is a good boutique hotel, it is very obvious that the owner puts his hart and soul in his hotel.

Guest review
The location is in the heart of Casco Viejo. The room we had 101 I think in the Spanish building, was small but the bathroom was very comfortable. We had a room facing towards the gardens, which was lovely w an outdoor terrace shared by 3 rooms. From there we watched a bride taking pictures in the garden. The rooms facing the Avenue are louder with traffic and people walking by.

This one is a jewel. The rooms are beautiful and so is the garden around it.
Breakfast was delicious, and from where they serve it, you can see a lot of birds.
Staff was very friendly and helpful.
