Love this place!!!!

The rooms are beautifully decorated and very clean. The breakfasts are yummy. The pool area is inviting and lush. I loved swimming in the pool listening to the birds! The staff are very friendly and helpful. The location is close to the beach and the nicer section of the city. I would recommend!

We have been going there as a family for the last 15 years on and off. Before Covid, we stayed there around 5 times. This was our first time after Covid. The place has completely fell a part. Pros…. Rooms are big. Fits two queen size beds. Rooms have balconies. Shower has good pressure (very important, especially after full day at the beach), and we always had hot water. Very centrally located. Convenient to many restaurants, Mamitas beach (one block), bars, and basic trinkets shopping. Cons Before Covid, the staff was a bit more professional, helpful, had European charm. Today, Staff at the front desk are completely LOST, especially the lady at the night shift. Completely useless. Anything you ask her outside of a key, she doesn’t know how to do. TV has one English Channel, mattress is not existing. Bathroom has two self made ventilations to prevent mold. One is the actual bathroom door that has been cut up, and the second is an angled plexiglass that leads to the hallway. In both variations, you actually know what the person is doing while waking through the hallway to your room. Very disturbing and unpleasant. Beach towels that the hotels provides (if you ask) are soooo old and dirty it’s embarrassing. Rooms have no phone, so you can’t even call downstairs to ask for anything. Hotel is located right next to 3 bars/restaurants that close around 3am on the weekend and around 1:30am or so on weekday. Good luck falling a sleep 3 star hotel with 2 star service!!!

We chose his property because it had a lot of authentic Mexican culture qualities. The staff was super friendly there was no sales pressure from anyone. It’s still very close to the nightlife so there is some residual noise but not nearly as bad as other properties. Overall this place is wonderful and very close to everything downtown we would definitely recommend staying here.
