“From what I explored, this is a charming place to stay with family-friendly facilities. I noticed it's located a short walk from Santa Catalina Arch, placing guests in the heart of Antigua. Based on my research, its shared kitchen and outdoor dining create a communal atmosphere, although I did see a concerning comment about electric shocks from the shower.”
