Hotel Casa Miranda
La atencion es excelente, no asi las instalaciones. El salir de la habitacion para el baño y que este tapado no es muy buena experiencia. Le falta identificacion en la parte de afuera, son aspectos a mejorar

Truly a hidden gem. We had never stayed at an hacienda and this was worth it! From the front desk staff to the restaurant cooks, everything and everyone was great! Will definitely be back!
