This si a great place to stay. Just on the edge of Centro close to enough to walk (5 minutes) but very quiet and less busy. Tha place is incredibly clean and well kept. This is a great choice for San Cristobal.

This was the worst hotel experience in my decade years of travel. My first night was absolutely horrid because the bed and sheets had bed bugs. I didn't realize until the middle of the night when I woke up full of bites--my entire body itching nonstop. The next day, my friend and I were moved to a different room. I asked if I would be compensated and then front desk attendant said we would definitely be given a credit towards the breakfast or transportation to the airport. Well, at checkout, a new attendant said the owner would not be given me any type of compensation or credit. When I asked to speak to her, the older lady was very rude and kept giving me excuses that she was losing money because she had to throw away the bed and sheets. I was like that's not my fault, I had a terrible night. But she did not care. I told her I never leave negative reviews, but that she was forcing me have to do it, and she said she didn't care. Very unpleasant customer service.

It’s a lovely little hotel with extremely nice owners and staff. It was raining so I couldn’t try the pool but it looks great. They can arrange transportation to and from the airport, which was great because no Uber was responding. Did definitely return

Lovely hotel with great Mexican style architecture, furnishings, plants etc. Very clean. The owner was very helpful and talked a lot with my wife and myself. Small heated pool is a bonus especially in winter. This hotel is on a quiet street that is about 5 minutes walk from the main square and cathedral. 5 minutes walk to pedestrianised streets with a good variety of shops and restaurants. I would stay here again.

High Points: Beautiful Courtyard, Nicely Appointed Rooms, Heated Pool, Great Restaurant with Awesome Coffee & Cocktails! Close to Town Center but far enough away when wanting to rest. Transportation readily available. But MOST the Kindness and Accommodation of the Owners and Staff. My US Bank restricted my Debit Card after a Single Transaction during a Layover in Mexico City. When I attempted to pay the bill when checking in, it was declined, I hadn't created enough payment options on other cards or secured enough Pesos to pay the bill, MY BAD! I ASSURED them I had the funds but it was late and I'd have to call my bank the next morning. They allowed me to check in without paying, NEVER HAPPEN IN THE OLE USA, so FIRST THING the next morning, I sorted it out and was at the office when they opened to fully pay for my stay!!! THIS PROPERTY WILL BE MY GO TO FOR ME AND MY ASSOCIATES EVERY TIME WE ARE IN San Cristobal de Las Casas! Mucho Gusto!
