The staff, particularly Javier, Reuben and Ivan were all so friendly and passionate about making the hotel inviting and fun. I love the housecats (Francesca and Elizabeth), the decor, the comfortable bed, the balcony, the infinity pool on the roof! Some of the best cocktails I had in PV were made by Reuben at the pool bar. The breakfast was included with the deluxe room and it was delicious! The hotel is located right by the river so you get an incredible view, nice breeze and a front row seat to wildlife (birds, iguanas, geckos, so many dogs and cats). It's also close to everything - restaurants, shopping, chocolatiers, lavandarias, and it's a 15 min walk to the beach. When I come back again to PV I won't stay anywhere else.

Unique, charming hotel. We had a large comfy room with a balcony, by the river so relatively quiet but within walking distance of The Malecon and the beach. Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good and the bartender at pool bar made a good Margherita. Will be back.

Ugh I had such great hopes for this hotel. First things first, if you are a light sleeper, do not book this hotel. First let's go with the pros •Close to everything • Staff was amazing • Great Pool and Hot Tub • Kitties! 😻 • Each room is beautiful • Bed was extremely comfortable Onto the cons :( • LOUD. In every sense of the word. The doors slam constantly until 3am by visitors. We visited over Christmas Eve and loud music was played next door until 2:30am. There was also fireworks being set off untill 3am. • This boutique hotel is located on a road where people drive by an blast music. • The breakfast was horrible. They cook everything in the microwave. Not worth the $12 at all. •We stayed in the Korvette suite. It is right next to the "kitchen" area. Every morning by 7:15 you can hear them start preparing. This would have been a great stay if everything hadn't been so loud. At least worn people this is not a quiet and peaceful hotel. The place is aesthetically pleasing but not peaceful in the slightest.
