I had a delightful stay at Hotel Galvez, enjoying its stunning architecture and historical charm. The ocean views from my room were mesmerizing, and I appreciated the convenience of the pool area and nearby attractions. However, I did find the room a bit on the small side, and parking was somewhat steep compared to other options.
