The name of this hotel is somewhat misleading. There are actually 16 rooms, with the five referring to the number of owners. It's a little hard to find -- look for the small metal sign saying FIVE COOL ROOMS, and be mindful of the address. There are no restaurants or bars inside, but breakfast is served on their delightful rooftop terrace and is included in the price. They also have an asado up here and periodically barbecue for hotel patrons. Their lobby -- called the living room -- has modern leather sofas, art on walls, and leads to an outdoor patio garden with tiny patches of bamboo. Overall, for a small hotel, there is a lot of public space. The rooms can be on the small side, but are filled with light, making them feel larger. The design throughout emphasizes bohemian chic. Bathrooms come with basin bowl sinks, and some rooms come with Jacuzzis. Free Wi-Fi is in all the rooms, and there is also an Internet work station in the lobby. The hotel lacks a pool or gym. One room is available for people with disabilities, and they accept small pets on prior arrangement.
