The hotel is right in the heart of central Leon, within a historic basilica, offering tons of character and charm. The rooms are compact but quiet, clean, and sufficient, although the bed and pillows could be more comfortable. The dining experience varies from generous to ordinary, with good choices but subpar coffee. The location immerses you in history with churches, cobblestone streets, and various piazzas, although limited to pedestrian traffic mostly. The facilities are solid with a notable mix of positives and negatives.
