I recommend this hotel ONLY if you need to use the Guadalajara bus terminal or want to be close to the airport. I had to catch a 6:30AM bus, and the close proximity of the hotel can't be beat. It took about 15-20 mins. from the hotel to the airport to pick up a friend, ($150 pesos, flat fare, not much traffic) and the hotel staff where helpful arranging this for me. You might be able to negotiate a lower fare with a cab from across the way at the terminal.
The rooms are outdated, tiny, shabby (indeed!) and the sleep quality isn't great - I recommend earplugs. I would stay here again only if I needed to use the terminal to get in and out of the city.
