This hotel is quiet, clean and safe. The parking lot had plenty of space. The staff is friendly and professional. They put out a very nice coffee bar in the am with multiple choices of teas, hot chocolate and coffee. The courtyard outside has plenty of chairs, heaters and mood lighting.

As two young girls traveling solo, staying somewhere safe and comfortable is a top priority. El Primero Hotel had the perfect balance of a warm, welcoming staff with comfortable rooms, along with a vintage, but updated, atmosphere. The family running the hotel was so kind! Anything we needed was met in five minutes or less. Thank you for a wonderful stay! <3
