I purchased my stay with breakfast included for my kid and I. The 1st two days no problem on Saturday morning when we go check in for breakfast I was super embarrassed by them. A waitress comes up to the register as I’m giving my room number to the cashier, and the cashier tells me 1 adult, I say no 1 child, 1 adult. The waitress ask me what’s your child’s age, I tell her 17 and she the waitress tells me here at age 11 their considered adults. I look d at the cashier and she shrugged her shoulders as like I can’t do anything about it. I was just hat is going on my reservation is for an adult and 1 child. And the let us sit to eat there talking about us in Spanish. Hello I totally understand everything they said. Totally rude and disrespectful. Unacceptable behavior from them. Really unhappy with them. They totally ruined my experience with the hotel.

Hotel Morales has been my "go to" hotel in Guadalajara for the last two years. The hotel restaurant is good, staff competent and pleasant, and I find the complementary valet parking a valuable convenience.

Most employees seemed annoyed by requests. Food was not good and food availability is very limited. Big variety but times to use r limited u have to be watching ur clock constantly if u want to eat. Room service only has 3 sandwiches and two salads available. Food not good. Night restaurants are only open for four hours and only have 5/6 tables. Impossible to get in and when u do service is terrible just like food. If u show up at 8:30 they won’t take you cus they close at 10 and they claim it’s not enough time to eat. Also my daughter threw up and they charged us $400 for the towel and pillow she threw up on at check out CRAZY. Hotel beautiful but not worth the money. Will not go back.

We have stayed at this hotel several occasions and each time we have been allowed to check-in early. during this latest stay the front desk person( younger male) said we couldn’t - this is disappointing and it’s one of the main reasons we chose this hotel.
