    Everything great except for the food. Skip the breakfast. Also, the kitchen in the apartment could use some basics like salt, pepper, and oil.

    See above. The hotel was very accommodating to allow an early checkin which more than made up for this. The food was excellent and the staff very friendly. They have their own taxis so I felt very safe.

    The site says the hotel is one minute walk from the US embassy and that was the reason I booked this hotel. However, I discovered the US embassy moved over a year ago and we had to get up early and take a taxi.

    One customer of the hotel. Always talking so loudly all the time at the phone. Contrasting with such peaceful place. Was not hotel's fault and I didn't complain.

    Beautiful garden with swimming pool. Silent except for airplanes but didn't bother me and instead, enjoyable

    I wish they would have turned the air conditioner on before my arrival. The maid service left some cleaning products in my room. The bed wasn't made perfectly. They threw away some things. Thinking it was trash. Might not be relevant because, manager told me that she was might be making a cleaning staff change anyway.

    The ambience and relaxed friendliness of the staff. A delightful welcome drink will be waiting. A lovely escort service to your room. I only spent a few nights but I could easily spend a few weeks. It is not one of those converted small boutique hotels where you're on top of each other. This one is Top notch and professional. Very respectful of your privacy yet is more than happy to get his involved as you need them to. The hotel is a converted mansion totally done right. Restaurant was a fantastic surprise. The staff doesn't push towards their restaurant but I recommend it highly. Remember service will be casual otherwise delicious. Absolutely fun place to take pictures and relax. Has a lovely bar by the pool and common areas. Plenty of tables and chairs in common areas, sitting room and dining room. A wonderful area for a conference room.

    The breakfasts were fine but the dinner menu could be improved.

    The hotel Carlos is a little gem. The pool with statues (!) nestles in a beautiful little garden and the rooms around the garden have very comfortable beds and and great showers. The restaurant and bar areas are decorated in an eclectic contemporary style while the historic parts of the hotel have the original porcelain and prints on display. (Note that the trip to and from the airport will take around 30 minutes.)
