Micro Hotel is a bit pricey for the neighborhood that is in, in my opinion. But if you are looking to stay real close to the consulate that is the hotel stay in.

I myself stayed at the Jardines and the owner is the best and makes you feel at home.

Yoli. Booking.com has Jardines at $60 per night. Is that correct?
