Our rating is 4.5 stars. Beautiful boutique hotel. Authentic Mexican decor and charm. Very clean and pretty quiet. Wonderful staff. Great location. The only reason we didn’t rate a 5 star is the WiFi and cell signal were spotty but still decent. Everything else was wonderful and we would recommend staying. The sister hotel is just as beautiful and the roof top pool is a must with breathtaking views!

Check in was amazing, and the room was everything I had hoped for. A nice view from the balcony into a quiet garden. The bed was super comfortable . All the staff were friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend spending time here.
