Bathrooms very small out dated tubs, mattresses hard and lumpy
Older building, Easy registration 3rd floor. windows where old and you can hear the cars. The bathroom smell either to sewage or mold. Very little privacy with a vent in the main door. I don’t recommend a tub for people with disabilities or older because is mounted a high step and complicated to get out. The bed was comfortable. Hot water. 4 blocks from the catedral and Metro station. I recommend this hotel if you will be one or two nights for sleep and shower.
Great hotel in excellent location. My only complaint was i was a bit down a hall and my wifi signal did not work half of the time, so make sure you request a room with good signal.
I stay in budget hotels. I only need a bed and hot shower. $50 is my upper limit and there are plenty in GDL at that price and they are acceptable for me. This one was under $40. Well, I guess I found my lower limit because I wouldn’t return here.
Basic older-ish hotel in a Central location, in a decently safe area. Would recommend.
The only thing is it was under renovation when I stayed. And in my case, I was put in a room right next to the construction. So the hallway was in upheaval and the construction noise was kind of annoying.
Maybe ask for a room NOT (next to/on the same floor/ below) the construction.

The hotel is conveniently located near the central plazas and the shopping area east of Independencia Sur. The cost of the hotel compares favorably with other hotels in the area.
It would have been nice if there were more amenities, such as a coffee maker and iron in the room. A fitness center would be a big plus too. The room was pretty clean, but there was a little mold near the ceiling of the shower.
