This is a clean, comfortable and charming Mexican hotel. Don't stay there for 5-star pampering, but do stay there for a friendly, laid-back base camp for days at the beautiful Playa la Ropa beach just at the end of the road.
We became very fond of the staff, who don't speak a lot of English but were very patient with our minimal Spanish and were always game for a bit of improvised mime. Somehow they always found a way to help us out.
We would have appreciated a coffee maker (we ended up buying one) and a refrigerator (we bought an $8 ice chest) but for $60 a night our room was almost identical to one on the beach for exactly double the price.
Buses to town run every few minutes until about 6 PM for just 5 pesos - but they aren't fancy. There's never a problem getting a taxi, 30 pesos to downtown.
