This was my second time staying at Hotel Spirito, and overall I had another decent experience. The hotel offers good value for the price, especially if your priority is staying close to Centro Comercial Chipichape. The rooms are spacious and functional, but there are some noticeable tradeoffs when it comes to service, amenities, and upkeep.
**Pros:**
* Great location near Centro Comercial Chipichape
* Spacious Superior rooms with comfortable bed, kitchenette, and balcony
* Generally clean rooms
* Ozonated tap water
* Security/police presence at entrance feels reassuring
* Nice pool area, slightly better than Spiwak’s
**Cons:**
* Not greeted by hotel staff on arrival both times
* Breakfast buffet is limited, repetitive, and average at best
* No gym or restaurant onsite (must go across to Spiwak)
* Room service is slow since it comes from Spiwak and has an added charge
* Some room details poorly maintained (missing sink stopper, worn blinds, makeshift fixes)
* Weak soundproofing, can hear neighbors/upstairs noise
* Avoid 2nd floor Superior rooms: too close to street/sidewalk, less privacy and more noise
**Overall:**
Good value for the location and room size, especially if being next to Chipichape is a priority. Amenities are decent, but many of the better facilities are really at Spiwak.
