Not elegant but right at the beach, nice staff & CLEAN

Hotel lily was an okay play to stay. The locaiton was a few feet away to the beach and close to restaurants. Main door is locked after a certain hour during the night and it took us a while to bang on the gate and wake up the hotel staff who are also staying in the second floor. Our toilet smelled like sewage and the hot water runs out later in the morning. Overall, we got what we paid for.

A great inexpensive hotel, a clean room and shower and a nice location near everything. I think this the best hotel at this price in town, try it.

The basics. When I arrived at this small hotel at 9pm neither I nor the taxi driver could find the entrance. Posada Lily reminded me of european pensiones - a locked street side door going upstairs to a small office where the room was rented. Rooms are either street side where there is lots of sun and a very small patio to sit, or inside in which there were no windows, and probably much quieter. My room was 350 pesos ($35US)for street side. Family run, clean room and bath, half a block and you're on the sand. Perfect if you're not expecting much more.
I saw rooms at Hotel Posada de Roger(?), which was 3 blocks away inland -simple and classier, with nice entrance and patio, and a very nice courtyard; also a great restaurant adjacent. The place seemed uptone, nicely decorated and very clean. Those rooms were $40US single;$50 double. It seemed more like a nice place to return to.
I left for 3 days to travel and returned to PV for 5 more days and stayed at Villa Mercedes which was 3 blocks south of Lily. The rooms were very lovely, nicely decorated, nice bathroom, patio, cont.breakfast served by a very sweet pool - all in all cute/classy,and very quaint and again a block from the beach. I paid $75 single. I liked this south area of downtown PV much better, even tho it was just a few blocks away. There are great restaurants all around both areas- I didn't have a bad meal anywhere. I also saw rooms at the Tropicana across the street when I was going door to door for a room on my return trip. Nice rooms-hotel right on the beach. I was quoted $110US for a 'mini suite' which looked like a regular hotel room, but friends met said they were paying $75 advance booking and really liked the place - cant beat the location of any of these hotels as everything was very walkable. Found a local gym up along the south end of the river Cuale for $20/week.
I found PV established, with good food, beaches wonderful, good walking. Compared to other more remote areas of Mexico, PV is busy and alive with great restaurants and a bit of night life, and there is traffic and noise and honking horns, which echos down those cobble stone streets. Earplugs, 15 pesos ($1.50US - very good investment!)
