It was a beautiful place- comfortable beds- great views!! Thank goodness our airport uber stopped at the main office to get the key and waited for us- cause it was a bit of drive to then get to the La Vela. But definitely worth it!! Would definitely stay there again!

For breakfast: the kitchenware is just fine. For dinner: the kitchenware is insufficient; only one pan and a fryingpan. The shower is great and the view from 3B is excellent. The bed is comfy. Last night we had a lot of wind and the window was blown open twice.

Once you work out how the radiators work, comfortable room/studio, well equiped, good breakfast with a fantastic view in the nearby hotel. It is a bit of a struggle with the suitcases and the check-in in a nearby hotel, but not a deal breaker. Special thanks to Angie at the front desk for all the help.

Modern and very clean - without any fragrances like many of the other hotels. Room is like a small apartment w/ lots of area to relax. Small kitchenette for cooking if needed. Overall very good value. I was alone and felt safe. Very cute coffee shop next door that serves eggs, sandwiches and pastries. The only real down side is the check-in is on another street, so is the breakfast... Not convenient if your carrying lots of luggage. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Apartment was spacious, good bed and shower, adequate kitchen facilities. View of the harbor and Beagle Channel was very nice. Breakfast in the associated hotel (about 1 block away) was good, though scrambled eggs were a bit runny and lukewarm. Only major complaint is that the apartment is almost directly above a dance academy, which was pretty loud during 2 of the 3 nights we were there, even with the windows closed.
