Nomada Republic Hotel El Valle — Hotel in El Valle

Wow, Wow, Wow. This was certainly a unique hotel experience. Perched off the ridge of a mountain, with shipping containers for rooms, this setting and views were spectacular. Small hotel, easy check-in, friendly staff, small but very well appointed rooms with small kitchenette area, two walls of windows for the amazing views, nice balcony area, and mountain views all around.

Unfortunately, the overall maintenance leaves a lot to be desired. The bathroom had a strong, unpleasant sewage smell that made it hard to relax. In the bedroom, there were a few small surfaces to put things down, but no hooks, shelves, or wardrobe space to hang clothes or towels, which made things a bit inconvenient.

With a bit more attention to upkeep and practical details, this place could be genuinely...
