I had a fantastic stay at El Porton De San Joaquin. The hotel's location in a quiet residential area made it easy to explore local restaurants and nightlife, which I really enjoyed. The spacious room provided me with a great night's sleep, thanks to the efficient air conditioning. However, there was no English-speaking staff available, which made communication a bit challenging at times.
