Frommer's Review
This character-filled place is directly across from the train station. Built in 1907, it's a little funky but oddly cool for the right kind of traveler -- one who values uniqueness over strict adherence to hotel standards. The lobby has two welcoming bars; one is chilly with air-conditioning, while funky Bar Pergola has high ceilings, glowing green light from skylights, and slow-moving ceiling fans. The main restaurant, El Dorado, is, surprisingly, almost elegant. Each of the 67 large rooms is different, with sizes and shapes determined by the structure of the building. Most are newly refurbished, with new furniture, tile floors, and new but tiny TVs. Try to get a room with a private balcony on the north- or west-facing side of the building, although rooms on the interior, with views of the patio, are quieter than those facing the street.
