Boutique Los Balcones really captured the charm of colonial architecture. The breakfast served on the terrace each morning was a delightful treat with fresh smoothies and tasty cheese empanadas. My room had a comfortable bed and a well-appointed bathroom. I appreciated the multiple sets of doors that blocked out street noise, allowing for peaceful sleep despite being in a busy area. The staff were welcoming and provided helpful tips for exploring the city. The location made it easy to walk around old town. However, some areas could use a bit of updating. The room I booked wasn't as charming as the ones featured in photos, and I wish there were more options at breakfast for those with dietary restrictions. Also, the nights were a bit noisy due to creaky floorboards from the wooden structure. Despite these small drawbacks, I felt secure and settled during my stay, making it worthwhile.

During my stay, I was delighted by the lovely rooftop terrace where I enjoyed a generous breakfast with a wide array of options. The staff went above and beyond, helping with local tips and arranging tours. My room was spacious, bright, and wonderfully comfortable.

Some aspects require updating.

stylish hotel with a few drawbacks

The hotel offered a charming ambiance with beautiful old European furniture, making my stay feel quite unique. Breakfast on the terrace was a delightful experience with a great selection of dishes. The multiple layers of security made me feel safe in my room, which had a lovely view of the bustling street below, though I opted not to use the balcony due to the noise.

The street noise made it difficult to fully enjoy the balcony.

the large roll top desk in the room was such a unique touch. floors creaked a lot.
