They have removed some of the old stained carpet and replaced it with nice marble, still an older hotel but our group of 8 enjoyed it. As team leader i had room 132 a corner suite for 49 dollars and we centered our activities there. Very large room could hold 16 people. Clean Beds are not great. TVs are of... More

This hotel is inexpensive but is very much in need of cosmetic overhaul. For less than $50 I had everything that I needed to spend the night but everything was very warn and tired. May not be sutiable for romantic getaway but ok for men, travelers. and non fussy folks. Modern highrise, somewhat noisey, and very Mexican. On site travel... More

Other items may include beef stew and pasta. What Breafasts! Mostly Mexican tourists stay here. The hotel's laundry service is rather pricey, but management allows the housekeeping gals to do your laundry on the... More

It has been a few years since my stay, so this is dated information, but we certainly enjoyed it. It was clean and comfortable, with some staff members who spoke a little english. The best part is, it is only about 3 blocks to the Cathedral, and the beautiful downtown area, and also near shopping. They have a resturant with... More
