One of the town's newer budget-cum-midrange options located about a 10-minute walk from the plaza. The owner, a carpenter, has outfitted the compact rooms in a minimalistic, industrial chic way. You can forgive any small glitches given the fair price that you pay. A small cafe is attached that serves good breakfasts. Staff are super helpful.
