Terrazas Hotel Boutique
The location of this hotel is excellent and the room was lovely and very big. We had a delux room with a balcony and hot tub. Balcony and view were great, however the hot tub had cold water only, so was cold too sit in it. Housekeeping did not service our room on the second day, we're not sure why ...
