Magical place to stay that is an easy walk down to Zona Romantica. There is a challenging walk back up the stairs, but it’s close by.
Effie was lovely and did not speak a ton of English, but communicated well with my very basic Spanish. She offered to wash our clothes toward the fourth day of our trip and did a great job cleaning.
There is an envelope for tips for her and the gardener/pool person.
There is some construction at the condo nearby, but only during the day. I never noticed it in my room. The fourth bedroom under the stairs does not have air conditioning, but does have a very powerful fan. I was tired enough after each adventure day to not notice, but if you have trouble sleeping without ac, keep that in mind.
The pool was clean and well cared for, with plenty of towels for everyone. There were cooking supplies, but we didn’t use them. A large jug of processed water is always full, so we didn’t have to worry about buying water bottles.
Overall a great place to stay and I plan to come back!
