Casa Jose Maria

The staff was always nice and helpful. This hotel has parking right around the corner and it's a quick and easy walk to downtown. There's a free water refill in the lobby. The room was definitely a bit run down. Sheets and pillow cases were really rough and pilled. My biggest issue was the bathroom. The trashcan next to the toilet was dirty from previous occupants, the plastic liner wasn't changed, as a result the bathroom spelt very bad as soon as we got in the room. The lighting in the bathroom is really bad so it's hard to see in the shower but I could still see the mold. We were here 2 nights and decided to wait until our next hotel to shower because didn't want to use it again. There is no ventilation in the bathroom just a hole that goes into the room. The lighting in the room is very harsh if that bothers you. The air conditioner started leaking but thankfully we noticed it before it did more than get my bag a little wet. We did find a dead cockroach but that's probably an issue across the city and not just them.

The property is well maintained and managed, but it is still a long way away from the boutique hotel it wants to be. The whites are very old as well as the beds and mattresses. The isolation is not good enough, and it is priced above its category.

I have stayed at this hotel multiple times and i always have a great stay.

This hotel is set in an old building but its quaint and well maintained. 24 hour front desk. Secure, included parking less than a block away. Within easy walking distance of the cathedral and all the restaurants and shops in Centro. The room was basic but clean and the bed was comfortable. Lots of choices on the TV, except CNN which would be nice for English speaking guests. It's available but not subscribed to. Overall, we enjoyed the hotel for its convenience and besides some road traffic which died down by 10:00pm, its quietness. Would stay here again.
