Property was in the heart of the city. Everything needed as far as food and entertainment was walking distance. Very clean and well kept. Would definitely recommend
Wonderful staff, excellent restaurant and very centric. It's a very comfortable place to stay, clean, nice beds, a little rustic but it's part of the atmosphere of the beautiful town San Cristobal de las Casas is
Excellent service, beautiful hotel. The personnel very polite, and nice. everyone in the restaurant and reception was exceptional, everything very clean.
Este hotel es de los mejores en San Cristóbal, el staff es muy amable y atento nada malo que decir del lugar al contrario es un lugar cómodo tranquilo y se siente un ambiente bastante agradable
Our hotel was full of ants. We left the hostel and still had ants crawling on us. They didn’t clean the room before we used it. The trash was full from the previous person.
