Ricardo and his mother are excellent hosts. We booked this place trusting other reviewers and were not disappointed. We were offered fantastic coffee every morning as well as a full breakfast (and Ricardo’s mother sent snacks along if we didn’t have time to sit down). The room was clean and Ricardo gave us lots of tips on where to go and eat in the area that did not let us down. The only things to be mindful of is the distance from the main city. Transit is supposed to take half an hour but can take an hour or more waiting for buses. There is also no AC in the room, which got a bit hot in July. But even those things considered, it was definitely worth it to stay here. Ricardo even drove us to the train station early in the morning to make sure we could catch our flight! I would definitely recommend this place.
