The spacious,
good-looking rooms here make up for the slightly out-of-the-way location. There's no wi-
fi, but you can hook your computer up via network cables in your room. Pay an extra Q80
for wooden floorboards and a balcony.

chen area and a great rooftop terrace. The location's handy for the Zona Viva eating and
nightlife scene. Call for free pickup from the airport or bus terminal.

The spot-
