I had a lovely stay at this hotel! The location was just perfect, close to Little Italy and a quick walk from the Santa Fe train station. My wife and I enjoyed a clean, cozy room with a really powerful shower. The service was amazing, especially thanks to Maciel and Vicente who went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. On the downside, the breakfast options were a bit simple, so I would have liked more variety.
