This was our second time staying at Quijote. The staff are very helpful and friendly. Especially helpful in arranging confirmations of cab service to the airport when our travel plans changed. The location is a minute or so from the main street and easy to get to. Will not hesitate to stay there again.

The hotel is great, it all depends on the room you select. I had stayed here several times, and I had great rooms and basic rooms. The location is great, and the staff is super friendly. My only complain is (stupid complain) that they need to upgrade those toaster machines in the breakfast room - they do not work and they do not toast the bread...hahaha, honestly! Other than that, it is a great place to stay.

Quite an established hotel with many wings and a lovely ambience located 1 block back from the main street. We rented a car at the airport and were able to park it almost at the front door for our one night there. The room and bed were lovely and comfortable. Bathroom was cozy but well appointed. Breakfast was adequate. Best part is its location - so walkable, and restaurants everywhere in easy reach up and down the main street.

A very nice property. The breakfast room can get crowded and the staff has trouble refilling empty platters. The less expensive rooms are smaller, but have been upgraded to have outlets by the bed which the more expensive, larger rooms didn't have.

The hotel is in a great location, but it seems like it is next to a bbq/parrilla restaurant and the smell of bbq at night is too much, at least from my room. The breakfast needs improvement, everything is cold, toaster do not heat the bread, they need new equipment. It is nice that breakfast is at 6am, so you get to eat something before going in a tour.

This hotel has a very convenient location, 1 block from shops and restaurants. Rooms are quiet and clean. The lobby is attractive. Breakfast is fine. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Our rooms were a bit stuffy and too warm. We could not regulate the temperate and had to open a window to bring the temperature down to a comfortable level. It would have also been helpful to have electric plugs next to the nightstands to recharge our phones.

El hotel muy basico para como lo pintan.... ventana a un pasillo.... regadera ridiculamente chica... pedimos cama queen y nos dieron individuales.... pero lo peor... Llegamos noche de un recorrido... y el hotel "cerrado"... estuvimos 10 minutos tocando y timbrando... con un frio de la chingada... hasta que un trabajador se desperto y dijo que cerraban a las 12
