Review by hotel critic
My stay at Hostal El Punto exceeded my expectations, with a beautiful terrace perfect for enjoying a welcome drink while basking in the sun. The helpful staff swiftly arranged the tours I desired, making exploration effortless. Surrounded by cozy courtyards, the colonial house offered a peaceful retreat, and the spacious room ensured a comfortable stay. The convenient location between the bus terminal and the city center allowed for easy access to nearby attractions, while the warm and accommodating team, especially Pia, added a personal touch to my experience, making me feel right at home. The inclusion of amenities like free continental breakfast and a shared lounge further enhanced my stay, complemented by the option of bike hire and car rental for added convenience. From the informative staff to the inviting atmosphere, Hostal El Punto provided a memorable and welcoming retreat, leaving me wishing I could have extended my visit.
