Calle Flora Hotel by Jalo
It’s a lovely hotel with great views right in the middle of all the action. Did not have a bar. I borrowed an umbrella and left it in an Uber and the front desk was very upset with me. I’d still go back again the rooms are nice.

The safe was locked. I was unable to open it. I went to the frond desk to report the issue. I was told that the maintenance technician would come over to fix it. He never came.
