Very charming little hotel located 2 blocks from the beach and a block from the main drag (Ave. San Martin). Great Italian restaurant 1st floor and other great restaurants and shops in the surrounding area. $35-$38/night ($66 high season). Great service, colonial architecture, and nicely decorated, almost a “homey” feeling. Small drawback is that the rooms are a bit small, even their double room could be bigger. Also, no pools, but they do have a nice courtyard area.

Next to the Lobby is a very good Italian restuarant, the pizza is cooked in a brick oven and is especially good.

They have several jacuzzis on the fourth floor and the 3rd floor rooms are bigger and newer. They do not hassle the chicas as much as other hotels I stayed at, but the gils do need to have I.D.s.
