“This hotel sits in the historic Ciudad Vieja near the port, a location I find appealing for its proximity to Mercado del Puerto and convenient bus lines. The functional-chic interior offers a contrast to the colonial architecture. I think the reliable WiFi and friendly staff contribute to a solid stay, and the breakfast gets high marks.”
