Very close to the main plaza (10-15 mins walk) with shops and restaurants. Breakfast was included (scrumbled eggs with beans or pasta or rice). Room smallish with 2 beds and smallish bathroom. Clean room, no fridge or coffee/tea maker, TV with plenty of channels, safe. No noise, nice sleep. Liked our 3 night stay.

Good for short stay

Well located hotel close to the big market. Good secure parking. Nice pool but need to be repainted. Nice big bedroom overlooking the pool. Mattress are AWFUL. Towels too...no hand towel, no pool towel. We've been to this hotel before. We used to have a small breakfast buffet now they serve you kind of omelet one day with rice the other day with frijoles...very basic but included in the price of the room. Wifi could also be improved but funcional.

I used the accommodation to sleep and shower. I choose this place because it was close to the plaza and the fruit and food market and most places to walk around and shop and eat.

The location is close to downtown attractions, but the immediate blocks are run down. The bathroom door was warped at the bottom. Not the cleanest.

Nice place to stay. The paintings in the lobby gave it a lovely charm. Simple rooms for the budget conscious. Located near the cathedral which was nice. The beds were VERY hard which was the only downside. Breakfast is uninspired but edible (scrambled eggs and pasta or rice). The pool was nice and they let us bring our own beverages and food which was great. If they can fix the beds, it’d be a good stay!

Low cost, basic with breakfast included. Old place close to everything. More expensive places with trendier, upscale atmospheres are everywhere. Cleaning staff is much more efficient than high-end places I've stayed.This place will get you a longer stay at a very reasonable price if your not picky about everything. Ive been here before and I'll definitely return.

Me hubiera gustado tener un poco más de opciones en el desayuno, a lo mejor manejar 2 menús como opción. También que avisen que hay abejas cerca y no hacen nada para que uno esté enterado, y más shampoo y toallas un poco más grandes. También un poco de cuidado en la regadera porque el aguas se sale muy facil
