Property was very noisy especially since my bed was situated directly underneath the staircase. I would suggest putting a mat on the staircase to avoid the noise. Jot everything was explained upon arrival however the costumer service was impeccable when asking questions. There were a few instances when I asked a worker for assistance and he had no mnowledge of what to do.

I would have loved to give this a higher rating but the mattress and pillows were almost unbearable. I was exhausted most of our trip. With that being said, this is a wonderful little urban boutique hotel. The staff was wonderful. Very helpful and friendly. The property never felt crowded. There is a small pool to relax by and a minimal restaurant and bar on site. We rented one of the small apartments. Didnt get the cute one pictured but realize that was just the luck of the draw. Also, you should realize that this is located in a neighborhood and does get quite noisy at times. We had young children screaming/playing right outside our window til midnight one night plus construction and other city noises on a regular bases. We were ok with this but if you are looking for peace and quiet you may want to look elsewhere.

This is the real local experience and the property is really one of a kind. Colourful and vibrant, incredible staff who were so accommodating. Walking distance to shops, art, nightlife and dining in a charming neighbourhood. The food at the hotel restaurant was fantastic! Safe for solo female travellers. I will be back with friends!

A GOOD NEIGHBOURHOOD PLACE TO STAY
If you are looking for accomodation that makes you feel apart of the neighbourhood and not necessarily a hotel, this is the place to be. Colonional buildings renovated to apatment and room styles with all the amenities you need. The Location is perfect to get around the city center. The food is reasonable and tasty, with courtyard perfect for just hanging out with friends.

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We are sorry to hear you had cockroaches in the bathroom. Unfortunately, as we are located in an old building and we are on a tropical island this can happen. However, we have taken measures, by fogging to prevent this.Despite this, we are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay and would stay again with us.We hope to welcome you again in the future!Warm regards

This property is in a great location but is also mixed with residential around their buildings. The neighbors near our building were annoying. They would play music loudly at the same time Bario would have their live music going on. They also allowed their dogs to bark throughout the day and night. We could have complained sooner and been offered to move rooms but that is also very annoying and something we don't want the hassle of doing while trying to enjoy our vacation. It was clean but the maid only put a sheet on the bed both times and I had to hunt someone down twice to ask for an actual blanket. There was not 24/7 reception and you had to find someone available in their restaurant to get anything you needed. The maid also didn't supply us with coffee and again it was annoying to find someone yet again to give us coffee. The location was the best part of this hotel. It was easy walking distance to several restaurants, bars and shopping.

Hi Dawn, we are grateful that you left us a review. Indeed that is the case we have rooms far from the restaurant, bigger or smaller apartments with more amenities.But is indeed important to state that we are a city hotel that is a part of a beautiful, artsy, lively neighborhood. Not too noisy, but if you are looking for total tranquility, we are not the hotel for you. Thanks for the feedback about our personnel. That is for sure something we take to heart. Based on multiple feedback in that area, we have made some changes in that regard, Thanks again, and we hope to see you again!

La propiedad es parte de una casa antigua, empezaré por lo malo la cama es incómoda, hace demasiado ruido, no solo de música y sus restaurantes, también de perros y gatos durante la noche, no hay limpieza de habitacion. Solo te cambian la toalla y sábana cada dos dias no hay duvet o sabanas gruesas, lo utensilios de cocina son básicos y hacían falta ejemplo cuchillo y una sarten. Las ventanas no tienen vidrio son de madera por lo que los moscos entran y pican. El personal de recepción es de 8-6pm pero nunca están ahí, no considero que esto sea un hotel, nadie está para ayudarte o atenderte jamás, ahora lo bueno, la ubicación y el aire acondicionado, agua caliente y las cápsulas de café que te dan. Te recomiendo hospedarte entre semana y solo dos o tres dias maximo en una habitación de arriba. Las de abajo no podrás dormir nunca,

Hola María, te agradecemos que nos hayas dejado una reseña. De hecho, nuestro hotel es un hotel urbano que no cuenta con todas las comodidades que quizás desee. Dependiendo de la preferencia de los huéspedes siempre podemos tener esto en cuenta, ya que tenemos habitaciones alejadas del restaurante, apartamentos más grandes o más pequeños con más comodidades, dependiendo de su presupuesto.Pero es importante afirmar que somos un hotel urbano que forma parte de un barrio hermoso, artístico y animado. No es demasiado ruidoso, pero si buscas tranquilidad total, no somos el hotel para ti.Por supuesto, siempre bienvenido a Bario. Nos encantaría hospedarte.

Zentrumsnahe Lage mit vielen Sehenswürdigkeiten
Die Anlage besteht aus zwei Teilen: dem Hotel und einem vorgelagerten Restaurant. Wenn man den Hoteleingang erreichen will, muss man durch das bei Einheimischen sehr beliebte Restaurant gehen, das gerade am Wochenende so stark besucht wird, dass eine Reservierung hilfreich ist. Das Hotel besteht aus zwei Teilen, zwischen denen sich ein schöner Swimmingpool befindet. Das Hotel ist das Ergebnis einer gelungenen Sanierung eines Altbaus. Die Zimmer sind geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Das Hotel befindet sich in unmittelbarer Nahe zur Wasserstraße, über die der berühmte Königin Emma Ponton führt. Für die Fahrt vom/zum Flughafen ist ein Taxi am bequemsten, wenn es auch einen Flughafenbus gibt. Der Preis ist ein Festpreis, er wird ausschließlich in bar in einheimischer Währung ANG oder auch in US Dollar (35) bezahlt.
