It’s an older Mexican style Hotel with a nice courtyard and a nice rooftop swimming pool adjacent to a lounging area on the roof. It’s in walking distance to Centro and Zona Romantica which is fantastic. We stayed for 4 weeks and the roof service is great. We had a room with a little balcony looking towards the ocean which we very much enjoyed. Since the hotel is right at the car bridge it can be noisy at times. I would recommend the place considering the price it costs.
