The hotel has an excellent mountain view that’s hard to beat, but the overall condition of the rooms leaves much to be desired. The food was surprisingly good, especially the seafood pasta and chicken soup. However, some aspects like the outdated decor and cleanliness of the carpets did detract from the experience. Additionally, it was disappointing that the corporate rate request wasn’t approved promptly, reflecting the hotel's management responsiveness.

I had a mostly positive experience at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and offered stunning views of the snow-capped Ilimani mountain, making my stay very enjoyable. The staff, especially Lucia at the reception, was incredibly friendly and attentive. However, the location could use some improvement, as the restaurant area feels a bit outdated and run down. Overall, it's a great value for money with comfortable accommodations and decent amenities.
