For the price this is a very good option to be in the center of Xalapa. Our room was small but we only needed to crash for a night. The coffee in the room was excellent the shower was very good and walking out there were many excellent options for breakfast.

We are very pleased with the staff. They have a good helpful attitude. The rooms are unique, vintage. If you get a suite, specify which one you would like as each one is different. The food in the restaurant owned by the same property is excellent!! Thank you for your hospitality

Es una construcción del siglo XIX, bonita y bien conservada. Esta situada a una calle del centro, lo cual a veces la hace un poco ruidosa, al menos en la primera habitación que fue la que me tocó. La comida en el restaurante es muy buena y el personal muy amable

Todo muy bien y agradecemos su amabilidad y atenciones las 24hrs! Lo único que podemos sugerir es que revisen o cambien las puertas ya que tiene pequeñas aberturas y se escucha mucho ruido en los pasillos.
