My stay at this boutique hotel was an enriching experience. The hotel is housed in what feels like an ancient convent, giving it a unique charm. I loved that my suite had a jacuzzi, perfect for unwinding after exploring the beautiful streets of Antigua. However, we had a rough start with confusion over our reservation, which took some time to sort out. Despite this, the overall ambiance, excellent food, and attention to detail made the experience memorable.
