I’d love to rate this hotel better. The location is great. It’s a cool old building. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The problem was the room. Our room had no windows to the outside. The window faced the interior courtyard of the hotel. There was no air conditioning and no air circulation so the room was stifling and stuffy. The noise from the lobby reverberated throughout our room. We didn’t sleep at all and sleep is the number one necessary requirement of a hotel. This the 2 star rating.
The primary purpose of a hotel is a place to sleep. It was impossible to sleep at this property. They kept roosters that were very loud all night long.. we returned home tired and ill.
We stayed for a couple nights. The accommodations were great and perfect for our stay in Banos. We didn't use the room much as we were out exploring, but the staff was helpful. The location is convenient for food and other services. The Wifi was helpful.
My only issue was the doors are locked from the inside with a key, so I found myself locked into the hotel at sunrise when I wanted to get out and walk around. I found a back door, into a lot, and then climbed the gate to leave. The doors were finally open when I returned closer to 8am.
Decent hotel! Make sure to ring the door bell if you go out because they lock up early and your key wont get you into the hotel. If you go out early same thing you have to wait for someone to wake up and let you out!
Very accommodating. Didn’t speak English but we used the Google translate app and they worked with us. Helped us order food after curfew/lockdown at 8pm. Def recommend
Amazing service. But this hotel is in great disrepair.
It is extremely loud- you can hear the folks in the kitchen in the morning and evening. The mirrors were faded, the room door didn’t open easily as the handle was broken. The bed was fine, but the bathroom smelled awful and though it was clean, it was in disrepair with tiles kissing in the shower and holes in the walls.

Ubicación cercana al centro. Aunque cuenta con parqueo es complicado para carros grandes debido a como ha sido construido. La habitación que me asignaron no incluía las características de la habitación que se eligió en la aplicación. A pesar de que uno indica el número de personas que se hospedará, no habian suficientes toallas en la habitación, aunque luego de solicitarlas fueron entregadas.
The hotel is located in the center of the city very close to the main church and all of the downtown restaurants. It is also very close to the volcanic baths. The hotel room was spotlessly clean. They also have FREE on-site parking, which was very nice because there is absolutely no free parking in the area where this hotel is located because of its downtown location.
Only thing we did not like is they locked us out at night time....and very noisy...school across the street and busy road no screens on window and no A/C had to keep window open for fresh air....breakfast was ok...

The bathroom is not too clean .. the sink was covered and you have to be careful
The shower is dirty
The pillows cover has some spots
The bed not to soft
In the morning very noisy
Great location, close to "the action" but a couple of blocks from the noise. Easy to walk to the hot springs. Only complaint is that there were two pillows covered with shams that weren't especially clean. There were no pillows with pillowcases that were changed daily with the sheets.
