Other than the shower being built in next to the toilet our stay was great just take the garbage and toilet paper out before you shower . If you are going during cold weather you may want to take another blanket. There is no ac or heater. But that is normal for Mexico.
The staff was great! I will give 5 stars to Lisbeth! She was accommodating in every sense of the way. The place needs an upgrade, overall. But if you want a place to go to sleep and that is it, then look no further. The facility is clean. You can shower with hot water. The bed is decent. There are no bugs.

Noisy, so it's better to stay on the 3rd floor, and towards the back.
Also, as a suggestion to the management, it would be awesome to have at least one channel in English. The coffee and drinkable water was very welcome. I certainly would go back.

This is the minimum you will get in terms of hotel. Don’t expect wonders and you’ll be fine
Lo peor tiene fotos que no se parecen ala realidad huele asqueroso ademas solo efectivo nada de pago en tarjeta fue la peor experienciabc9n hoteles .com
The towels that were given were very old. Found a cockroach near the bed and it met its end right there.
Staff was friendly and location was good, close to the mercado and center, just wish there was more affordable parking options nearby
Carpet not cleaned
Bathroom dirty and old
Needs to Paint
Old pillows
Doors banging all night long
Great hot water but shower head too old leaks all over the bathroom.
It was the day of the dead weekend. Nothing else was available so we stayed here until we had other options. It has a bed and a shower/ restroom. It was either this or sleep in the street, so we opted for the stay but I would never stay here again if I had another option. On a positive side, it was dirt cheap and the staff were ok.
Worst place we’ve ever stayed at. More like a house turned into a cheap hotel. Noisy, no parking available, bad TV and WiFi signals. The shower was on top of the toilet (no joke). No daily cleaning. Photos were deceiving. You can’t contact them directly before your arrival and even Expedia couldn’t get in touch with them. Avoid!
Do not stay at this property. The place was filthy, sheets were with stains, bathroom looked like it had not been cleaned in forever. This place looked like it was used by the hour for prostitution and drug users. Some of the natives told us they were glad we didn’t spend a night in this place as they feared for our lives.
You get what you pay for. Great price at a price. Very small, old. Towels rough, shower hardly had any presure, bed old too. No a/c although not needed at this time of year. Very noisey. No parking.
The room was different than expected from the pictures sown on the website. If you only need a bed to sleep, this is OK, but definitely not a cozy relaxing place. The property could be kept better. Staff was friendly.
