Barceló San Salvador
We enjoyed our stay at Barcelo. The hotel is located in a very nice area close to a lot of shopping centers, restaurants and calm area to jog. Everything you need is walking distance. The staff was truly wonderful and the hotel itself is beautiful a perfect combination of charming and modern.

Very clean. Polite staff. Beds were comfortable. The only thing I found a little annoying is the alarm light that blinks in the room.
