Beautiful, clean, good service little hotel.

Great small hotel. Perfect for one night. Price was a priority and we were amazed by the cleanliness and friendly service. Our window was by the street but noise was tolerable.

Superior Service and Rooms in Perfect Location

On our two week trip to the region, this was easily our favorite lodging due to the superior customer service and the exquisitely comfortable beds and more. Armando, Reynaldo, and Javier were the staff who we interacted with and all went above and beyond for customer service, whether it was resolving problems in translation or getting additional blankets or personally escorting us to a doctor and pharmacy when one of us was sick on a holiday weekend and very little was open so we had to keep searching. We were never abandoned to find our own way, even when we were walking slowly. The location was perfect, with so many small shops and restaurants and bakeries nearby and the main plaza with even more options less than 2 blocks away. The interior courtyard was a relaxing place to sit. Unfortunately we weren't able to try the restaurant/cafe as it's only open on limited days and times due to staffing. We were on the ground floor (room 10) which is right on the street level. Noise never bothered us, even when there was a tianguis right outside our window. The only drawback was the 6 cm gap at the bottom of the curtain which let in light and distracting movement of passersby. We truly hope we can return without being sick and have more time to enjoy this beautiful area and the hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness
The property is fine. We had booked a triple room. We were told before we arrived that we had been upgraded. However, after paying ( for the triple) we were taken out to the parking lot and shown to a just-built addition that smelled of sawdust, was miniscule, and asphyxiating. No air circulation at all. We had to go back and get uor room changed - which they did, to the original triple. But why tell us we had an upgrade then put us in a shed in the parking lot?
