Ricardo and his wife are very welcoming and make you feel right at home. Ricardo was especially considerate about walking us to the airport at 5:00 AM. The area is safe and residential.

A small mixup upon arrival doing to Expedia not having their new address. I walked to the old one. It took a bit but Ricardo and Mari were very gracious and kind. They are excellent hosts and their staff for breakfast was very kind and polite. It is a simple room but for the price it was very good. I would recommend. Walking distance from the airport! Thank you for a short but very nice stay.

Primero el cuarto que me dieron muy mal condiciones, empezando que el televisor estaba a la cabezera de la cama un cuarto tan pequeño para una sola persona no cabia con mi esposo y la puerta muy insegura no cerraba bien, cuando fuimos hablar a la front desk. Hubo una señora muy grocera enojada por los reclamos que hicimos, fue muy mal educada no sabe lidiar con customer , creo que era la esposa del dueño.. menos mal llego el dueño y fue muy amable y nos atendio, nos toco pagar extra para que nos cambiaran de cuarto..

Hote très gentil. L'endroit est parfait pour un depart tôt le matin car très proche de l'aéroport 4-5 minutes à pied. En revanche, nous n'avons pas pu prendre le petit-déjeuner car servi à 7h alors qu'on partait à 6h15.
