A small mixup upon arrival doing to Expedia not having their new address. I walked to the old one. It took a bit but Ricardo and Mari were very gracious and kind. They are excellent hosts and their staff for breakfast was very kind and polite. It is a simple room but for the price it was very good. I would recommend. Walking distance from the airport! Thank you for a short but very nice stay.
