Close to great breakfast restaurant and (old town) shopping just blocks away. WiFi was not very good but maybe we shouldn't be on our phones and spend more time with our love ones. :)

BEST WESTERN IS FAR SUPERIOR!

The non-English speaking clerk took photos of my ID on her personal phone while never ending her conversation which triggered my ptsd, not knowing if she was sending my info to associates to rob me or worse. 911 was called twice. I didn’t stay at the place. Dont be a cheap @$$ and stay here to save money. I’m not saying it was definitely a cartel business but I won’t say it isn’t. The best western beside it is AMAZING!!! So clean, bed is super comfy,

The rooms are very old, outdated and felt dirty as all furntiture and curtains are dark. There was a gap at the bottom of the door we had to put towels in front of. The emergency latch lock was missing and there were several small holes and rust in many places. The bed and pillows were hard, tbe room chair was stained and overall just not a great room.
