Wonderful

We had a wonderful stay. The owner Gonzalo was so incredibly friendly and helpful. The day we arrived was a ‘festivo’, and when we popped to the local supermarket to look for snacks for my daughter it was already closed. We popped back to ask Gonzalo where the next closest one was, and he personally drove us there in his car and waited for us! The room was clean and comfortable, and there is a lovely little kitchen so you can make your own meals and snacks; great when travelling with kids! Ours was only a short stay on the way to Providencia, but we would definitely go back and stay for longer!
Despite not being a fan of my actual room itself and the presence of lizards and annoyance of mosquitoes, the bathroom and pool were a great plus as well as the available kitchen. The service and acoommodations of the hosts well exceeded my expectations despite them often having to repeat themselves in spanish and English (my companion didn’t speak English)
We stayed there for two periods of 3 nights, separated by a trip to Providencia, during April.
The owner Gonzalo is a really friendly, helpful guy who will help out with local arrangements, e.g. buggy hire, tours, etc.
No problem leaving some baggage there when we went to Providencia, there is even a balance for checking bags for the flight check-in allowance of 10 kg!
There is a very well equipped communal kitchen and dining area, and also a drying area for clothing.
Location is in a nice secure residential area very close to the coast road from El Centro to San Luis, with nearby grocery shops.
It's a bit far from El Centro, 15 - 20 minutes walk, but that's not really a problem since there's a bus stop on the coast road just 200 m away (or stop a taxi).
Highly recommended!
We had a very nice stay in the posada. It's farther away from the beach and the centre than we expected but the people running it are lovely. They can help with arranging all the local trips and rent motorbikes.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Room comfort
No air conditioning/only 1 room with private bath
our room had a shared bathroom, which is not clear in the hotel description available on Expedia. I must say that this it may be an issue with this web site....among the available booking options you can only choose the number of beds but not whether or not you want a private bathroom (they do have ONE room with private bath).
There is no hot water in the shower, although it seems that it is a standard for the island (al least for small hotels - "posadas").
There is no air conditioning (neither in the room nor private areas), which I beleive is necessary for the rooms considering the wheather in the island. We stayed there only for one night and would not recommend it for a longer stay if you don´t like hot and humid wheather and need a private bathroom.

No hacen limpieza diaria
A la llegada no estaba limpia la habitación (cama, piso).
Una excelente experiencia, la atención de don Gonzalo es muy buena, está atento a las necesidades de quienes se hospedan en su posada y a las actividades que estos quieran realizar.
A limpeza dos quartos era boa. No entanto, as toalhas só eram trocadas, se pedíssemos e mesmo que colocasse no chão, não trocavam. Explicaram que o fato ocorria devido ao racionamento de água na ilha. O ar-condicionado não podia ser utilizado entre 9 e 17h. De acordo com o proprietário, a pousada se comprometeu com a companhia de energia elétrica em racionar nesse período. No entanto, só soubemos do fato ao chegar na pousada. Nosso quarto dava de fundo para a lavanderia, o que tirava um pouco da privacidade. Do centro, são cerca de 15 minutos de caminhada. Como ficamos 7 dias hospedados, ficou meio cansativo. O bom atendimento do proprietário é o ponto mais positivo da pousada.
Nos fue muy bien la persona que administra la posada es el dueño por lo que siempre esta atento a los detalles, se esmeran en prestar el mejor servicio incluso ir mas alla para tener la satisfaccion del huesped, volveria todas las veces es muy limpia se puede cocinar si se quiere o alla le indicaran diferentes sitios para las comidas
A pousada eh pequena, administrada de perto pelo proprietário, então o clima eh de estar se hospedando na casa de um parente. Sr. Gonzales é muito prestativo. A pousada está localizada em um lugar tranquilo. Fica um pouco distante do centro, mas é possível ir caminhando pela orla. O táxi para o centro é barato, então não chega a ser um problema. Em resumo, nossa experiência foi boa e consideramos um bom custo benefício. A beleza do mar de San Andres é sem igual.
Un lugar muy bueno para alojarse a un precio justo, con detalles de atención excelentes y con un aseo impecable.
La atención del propietario fue excepcional, preocupado por el arribo de sus huéspedes, y bastante flexible con horarios. quedo muy agradecido por la atención especial que tuvo con mi familia.
mil veces mejor que un hotel.
Hotel muito agradável, o dono faz toda a diferenç.
Foi uma experiência espetacular, o Gonzalo faz toda a diferença durante a hospedagem, ele te ajuda com tudo que tu precisar e sempre dá boas dicas! Recomendo muito essa pousada! Ela é realmente diferenciada.
This is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. We stayed here for 6 nights and had a clean room with comfortable beds. The big plus is the owner Gonzalo who where very nice to us and gave us ride into town and the airport without charging us anything. He helped us when we had troubles after we had lost our bag and he made us feel very welcomed! I really recommend this small cute hotel!
Pousada bem simples, porem muito aconchegante. O dono da pousada, Gonzales, muito prestativo, conhece tudo na ilha, tem os contatos mais baratos dos passeios turísticos, deixa muito a vontade. Unico problema é que não tem agua quente no chuveiro, mas isso parece ser um problema de toda a ilha. Mas de resto, a pousada tem um excelente custo-beneficio.
Pousada situada a 10 minutos do centro da cidade andando (2 minutos de mototaxi/taxi). Possui o suficiente para uma estadia se voce tem interesse em explorar a ilha. O dono é extremamente amigavel e resolveu todos os passeios que fiz. Ficaria novamente
La ubicación no te permite disfrutar en la noche de la calidad ciudad, a sus alrededores no tiene donde comer. su dueña normal en la atención pero esperaba mas, me retire al otro día del hotel y busque un hotel mas central, teniendo que pagar la totalidad del alojamiento sin utilizarlo. es un hotel para personas que poco deseen disfrutar de la vida nocturna.
realmente disfrute mucho la estadía, los señores GARCIA PETERSON, son excelentes anfitriones nos dieron información valiosa para recorrer toda la isla con comodidad y economía, a resaltar la excelente atención de su propietario, para mejorar: no se debería cobrar la comisión para el pago con tarjeta de crédito, por lo demás excelente.
Excelente lugar para hospedarse, si bien queda a 15 minutos a pie del centro y de las playas, el lugar es muy grato. Es limpio, cambiaban sábanas cada 2 o 3 días. Los dueños, Clara y Gonzalo, son muy atentos y muy serviciales, nada que decir, todo muy bueno.
Nos sentimos como en casa, ambiente acogedor, fina atención de sus propietarios, ambiente muy limpio, nos brindaron una asesoría completa sobre las diferentes actividades turísticas y de recreación que se pueden realizar en la isla con sus costos, horarios, etc, esta ubicado en un sector estratégica de la isla cerca al centro, al comercio, la zona turística y las principales playas, las tarifas son las mejores que pudimos observar en los 15 días de estancia, Todo estuvo excelente.
