Lovely staff, we have made this accommodation the place we go once a year. Very close to the beach, and there is a delicious breakfast/ lunch place right next to this property, affordable as well. Highly recommended!
Me hospedé ahí hace una semana. Las habitaciones cumplen con el propósito sin llegar a ser lo mejor y el servicio cumple. Pero en general creo que por el precio es una buena opción para disfrutar de barra u sus alrededores . Quiero agradecer al dueño a quien tuve la fortuna de conocer en la recepción , quien es una excelente persona !
Bien por el precio. Hay habitaciones con aire acondicionado por $100 pesos extra. Pisina con mucho cloro y está muy pequeña. Nuestra regadera no servía bien. Pero dentro de lo que cabe bien por el precio
Safe, comfortable room with comfy beds, clean refreshing pool, friendly helpful staff, convenient location 2 blocks to beach and laguna. Owners on site. Nice to have A/C and fan and WiFi all working. Kitchenette included small fridge, propane stove, kitchen sink, blender, cutlery, dishes, pots, pans. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would definitely stay here again.
Esta muy bien el hotel para hospedarse esta muy cercas de la playa, las habitaciones están pasable aire acondicionado y ventilación ademas televisión, agua calentita y toallas siempre limpias. No recomiendo la alberca es muy muy pequeña y nada que ver con una alberca para una pila más bien y el agua nunca se templa. Creo que los precios pues están acorde a lo que da el hotel.
Muy buen precio, camas de calidad y confortables, muy limpios. Estacionamiento pequeño pero seguro. Los baños con un poco de mantenimiento quedan de 10.por eso las 4 estrellas El dueño una persona muy accesible y atenta.
Es un lugar bonito y barato para estadías cortas, las habitaciones son pequeñas, pero cuentan con tv y aire acondicionado. La posada cuenta con una pequeña piscina en el patio central y algunas mesas en el jardín. Cuentan con estacionamiento. El cuarto de baño es muy pequeño, la regadera fue una decepción, ya que esparcia el agua para todos lados menos donde era necesario. La ropa de cama, podría mejorarse.
Nice management, clean has super clean pool .It has a homey Mexican style.wifi great plenty of patio seating.We will return
Within 3 blocks of town center eateries, this humble hotel is 5 minutes away on foot from the Pacific Ocean and less than half a kilometer from Highway 80.
Curated spots travelers usually pair with a stay in Jalisco. Distances are rough real-world times, not straight-line.

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
