The hotel is right on the border of the tourist area. So we were able to have the best from the both worlds: breakfast and lunch from the public market and coffee, dinner and drinks from the art and tourist district. 35 minutes of a plesand walk to the beach (it was January, it can be hot in other seasons). Breakfast and lunch at the hotel were OK if you like that sort of food. It was quite busy on Sunday because the place is popular with locals. Hotel has its charm: built in traditional style with tile, stucco and dark wood. Somewhat crumbled bathroom. Shower head certainly in need of upgrade. Next to the public market there is a laundry and we were able to wash our clothes just for 100 pesos for a bag. Hotel personal was helpful. They called taxi to take us to the airport and helped with our luggage.

Ok for basic/cheap place to sleep

The hotel is very basic. That's ok though. It's already very cheap. The room is very.... Crude as far as construction and materials. The bed was very comfortable though. Also the breakfast was good.

The location of the property is excellent if you’re looking to be close to the main square - about a five minute walk. It was a 20 minute walk to Walmart and just over 10 minutes to walk to the bus stop to get to Cabo San Lucas. It was VERY convenient! The outdoor restaurant inside the hotel offered excellent service and a beautiful setting. I had breakfast there most days and loved sitting in the outdoor area after it closed in the evening. The area around the hotel was very safe and quiet overnight. The staff were also quite helpful. I had to switch rooms though because I couldn’t get wifi in my first room. The second room had strong wifi but it was right beside another building which meant no natural light. There were a couple of issues though - the cold water shower faucet handle fell off, and the smoke detector started beeping in the middle of the night because it needed replacing. Initially the security guard wasn’t going to help me with the smoke detector but I begged him - it was 4am and I needed sleep. The rooms were very basic but the bed and pillows were comfortable, and there was warm water.

Great Place to Stay !

I was extremely with the Hotel Posada. Super clean, definitely Mexican in style, friendly staff especially the lady receptionist. The bed was really comfortable and the pillows so good that I wanted to buy one. I hope the Costco back here in Calgary has the same ones.
