Hotel Contessa
Breakfast was good. The hotel is lovely, and the server staff at the restaurant, particularly Francisco, was amazing. Bed not the comfiest. Toilet always took at least 2 flushes. Shower did not drain well and had more than a bit of mold. Elevator intermittently went to my floor. Hot tub was nice ...
