You get what you pay for.... this hotel was modestly priced and had modest amenities. I was prepared to stay off-beach, so the 300 metre walk up the Condesa Beach hillside was a good prescription of exercise for me and I was prepared for it. Staff was friendly, view from out room on the top floor was fantastic - all-in-all an okay vacation.
Acapulco ended up being way more expensive than I anticipated (even more than Cancun, but not NEARLY as nice) I found the city to be very much on the grungy side, and the beach/water was just okay. Be prepared to be completely harassed by the vendors on the beach. Fun party atmosphere! I LOVE Mexico, but if you want a lively resort vaction with a beautiful beach and good times, Cancun is sooooooo much more for the same kind of money. I've been all over the Carribbean - I'll return to Cancun on my next trip, I'm not sure I'll ever return to Acapulco.
