My stay at this hotel was quite pleasant thanks to its great location in the Historical Quarter of Campeche. The rooms were spacious and equipped with a kitchen, although they could use more natural light. The staff was friendly and helpful, but I did have a small issue with the billing. The breakfast wasn't impressive, and I'd expect more variety from a hotel of this level. Overall, it's a good option if you're exploring the area, but just don't set your expectations too high for dining.

The hotel has a great location in the walled city, making it easy to explore local landmarks. The rooms were quite comfortable, although some furniture was old and needed attention. The service was helpful but could have given better restaurant recommendations. Overall, it's decent value for the price, but expect some quirks with the room amenities.

I enjoyed my stay at the hotel, especially because of its great location near historic landmarks and the peaceful surroundings. The rooms had a nice layout, but they did feel a bit dated and could use some upgrades, especially with the air conditioning. The service was mixed; while some staff were super helpful, there were some billing issues that left a sour taste. Dining options were quite basic and not what I expected for a four-star hotel. Overall, it's a decent place with both strong points and areas for improvement.
