See my photo of the floor diagram." - "Excellent service from front desk staff, they provided a whole list of accommodations of places to eat and drink in the neighborhood. Beautifully decorated hotel. The room was immaculate and so spacious. The bathroom was gorgeous too. Loved the little thoughtful details of items you could use during your stay (sandals, flasks, ear plugs, etc). Happy that filtered water was available, so I easily refilled my water bottle. Loved having the balcony to drink my morning espresso from. The bed was so comfortable, it was hard to get up in the morning. Such a relaxing place to stay."

- "One of the best things for us was the location, Las Clementinas is located right where you want to be, right in Casco Viejo where you've got many nice restaurants, roof top bars, and Instagram worthy streets worth discovering. But then it gets even better once you enter the room. Calling it a room is an understatement, since it's actually a fully furnished and equipped apartment. If you book Las Clementinas you don't just get a place to stay, you get a place where you could live. All in the style of the old town, with hardwood floors and fitting furniture. You won't find a place that makes you feel more like you're living in an old central American city. Apart from the location and the style, we liked the following: - the bed was very comfortable - centralised aircon makes sure not only the bedroom, but the entire apartment stays clean - even if we didn't cook, the kitchen seemed well equipped with things you don't usually find (microwave oven, blender, toaster, large fridge, etc.) - room service can be ordered from the restaurant next door, which is very convenient."

- "This place has a character all its own. Murals in the first floor restaurant. Murals in the room. In the large suite there were three separate balconies. The restaurant was great for a morning coffee. The location is two blocks from Independence Square, which is a great central meetup spot if you know people staying elsewhere in the neighborhood." - "Really cool modern hotel, inside a beautiful old building. Much larger room than expected, with a nice private balcony, extra sink, sofa, king size bed. Excellent, higher-end restaurant and bar on the ground level for a date night. Afterwards, take the elevator to an amazing rooftop bar for dancing and city views (and cheaper cocktails). Great way to spend a 16 hour layover while flying through."
