"Overlooks the grand Plaza de Armas from the sixth story of a late 19th-century apartment building, with spectacular city views."
Rough Guide
"This gem, on the sixth floor of a building hidden within an alleyway filled with fast-food joints, has a prime location on the Plaza de Armas."

If you are noise sensitive, be sure to request a room overlooking the tranquil courtyard.
Insight Guides
"Great value for money; located on a quiet street and with excellent service from owner-managers. Rooms at the back overlooking the palm-shaded courtyard are best."
Lonely Planet
"Don’t be put off by the worn reception and squeaky-floored corridors – rooms are cozy and bright, with simple wooden furniture and springy white-covered beds."
