This was a fantastic place to stay. The casa is very close to all the must-see sights, and spotlessly clean. Carmen and Carlos were friendly and incredibly helpful. The room was lovely, as was the room where the superb breakfast was served up daily. I would definitely recommend this casa to anyone.

A very nice casa. De rooms are really nice with a balcony and they have a nice Colonial style. Good bedroom with a nice and hot shower. Also the breakfast is really Good and Lovely. The rooms are cleaned daily that is really Nice. We flew Home in the evening and even the room was reserved for that night we could get a late check out so we could have a shower before going to the AirPort.
