I thought the staff was very friendly and helpful. I felt safe. The rooms were clean and had soap, shampoo and body wash. Not fancy but it was all we needed. My kids liked the glass elevator. Our room had a fridge and small balcony. The breakfast had coffee, tea, bread, yogurt, cereal, juice, cheese and freshly made scrambled eggs. Simple but ok.
No wash cloths, they did not replace the towels nor provide another toilet paper roll on the second morning, although they brought them up immediately after asking. Old carpet that was swept, not vacuumed. The restaurant did not provide suitable lunch or dinner options, nor have a tienda or vending machine on site. Once during breakfast the door was open to the outside and smoke from devastating local forest fires was blowing in. No gym nor pool, but I knew that beforehand.

I've stayed here at least three times. The location is great, the price is fair, the breakfast is free and good, the wifi and hot water works well, and they have inexpensive single rooms if you're traveling alone, as well as big rooms.

Very clean and comfortable. Staff was attentive. Free breakfast with excellent coffee, rolls, jam, fruit, and cheese and a plate of scrambled eggs. We only stayed one night but good location and very quiet at night. I liked that we were able to open the windows.

Breakfast was a lovely spread of cheese fruit yogurts. Scrambled eggs to order with ham.
The room wasn’t quite ready when we arrived but they provided what was missing when asked.
