The property made communicating with them quick and easy. We had a red-eye flight and wanted to make sure we had a room to relax in when we got in; they made the whole process easy. Room was very spacious for two people and we got a room with 2 balconies overlooking the plaza. Room was clean and the AC was perfect for the warmer days we were there. The safety of the hotel was great as well; we came back late at night after 2 AM and security let us in promptly which made two female travelers feel safe. All of the staff were very welcoming and attentive. Highly recommend Hotel Morales not only for the hospitality but the architecture and rich history is an added bonus!

Highly recommend the breakfast buffet. Very large variety of quality, freshly made food items and the sweetest gal cooking up made to order omelettes, chilaquiles and quesadillas. Also, the best fresh green juice. Concierge can help you book tours, rental car, etc. Beautiful churches and shopping a couple blocks down.
