The only negatives were that we couldn’t get a room on the second floor. My wife has mobility issues and they couldn’t accommodate our request so it was difficult for her to go up and down the stairs. Also our room did not have working lights in the room (ie table/pole lamp. We would still stay here again because of the atmosphere and staff.

I almost didn’t book after reading some of the other reviews, but glad I did. This exceeded my expectations. It is weathered, but has character. Old, but clean. I felt very comfortable and safe. Easy walk to the beach. Everyone is super friendly. Great value for the price.

It could be a wonderful place. Needs work. Everything is old and wore. Beds hard, pillows super thin but clean. Bathroom towels were super worn. Pool nice but plaster missing but clean. Restaurant doesn’t open until 9 if even then. Dirt roads. Cools to beach.

The place was well maintained for its age. Staff was friendly and house keeping did a good job. The surprising thing was the restaurant bar was an American Legion Post 15. Service was exceptional but they only take cash no credit cards. Dollars or pesos accepted.

Just don't

Lights didn't work in the suite. Ned light was bdoke bedroom fan was broke bedroom light completely broke i like to do my make-up sitting , 1 mirror still no light in the bedroom i burned my leg 3rd degree burn. Was there 5 day's and no one came to fix the room lights. No side tables or any table in between beds as it was a queen suite. Over a 100 stay each night . Only positive was the shower with hot waterits not worth the money the suites ate just like the regular rooms.
This is from having no lights in the room and the floor was slippery that caused me to fall where the bruise is. Housekeeping sucks.

Look at other options..

The rooms are very worn out and terrible to be honest. There are many options in Penasco id suggest you avoid Baja Hotel.
