I recently stayed at El Dorado Vatican Hotel and, overall, my experience was mixed. The property feels more like a guest house rather than a hotel, which was not quite what I was expecting. Personally, I would have preferred a traditional hotel setting for several reasons, including the enhanced safety and convenience typically associated with hotels.
One major drawback was the elevator situation. The elevator is very small, which is manageable, but it is turned off late at night and only reactivated at a certain time in the morning. This posed an inconvenience, especially on the day of our checkout, when we had to carry our luggage down from the fourth floor.
On a positive note, the owner was very kind and welcoming, which added a nice personal touch to our stay. However, despite the owner's hospitality, I would likely choose a hotel for my next visit for the added convenience and amenities.
Overall, if you're looking for a more home-like atmosphere and don't mind the limitations, this place could be a good fit. However, if you prefer the typical conveniences of a hotel, you might want to consider other options.
