Traveler Reviews of La Casa de mi Abuela

Grandma's House

Rating: 100%

Just as the name says, this is grandma's house converted into a hotel, but in the pleasant gardens in the back yard, the family has built
comfortable modern rooms and a rustic restaurant. Service is friendly and
consistent, and this is a favorite hotel of large international tour operators which means you could get hit with a large group occasionally.
Ask for a garden suite, as the rooms in the old house are a bit musty and aged. There is a pool and even playground equipment for kids.
