Overall a good hotel in a great location. I didn’t eat here however the rooms were well equipped (safes, blankets, tv etc) and clean. Only problem was that there was no lift (ok for me but would be difficult for some) and the hot water wasn’t working in my room. It located on one of the main streets so lots of food, drink and attractions in walking distance.

Charming, historic and close to everything. No AC. Smallish room. Courtyard design makes noise from other guests unavailable.

We didn't stay in the hotel but we are here and I wanted to mention how fantastic their margarita pizzas are for only $80 pesos! Absolutely delicious and such a bargain for the price!! We actually returned three times just for the pizza and they have a great deal on 2 for 1 beers for only $50 pesos too! Highly recommend if looking for cheap yet delicious food and a great service
