Such a great stay!!
Everything about this stay was incredible. The rooms are so unique with incredible views. It’s right in the middle of everything yet secluded enough that noise isn’t an issue. The staff was hands down the highlight. I want to be friends with all of them!!!

Lovely Hotel with Wonderful Staff
Great boutique hotel and wonderful, welcoming staff. I highly recommend this place. Yes, it’s a little off the beaten path compared to hotels closer to the beach, but it’s really not far at all from anything in the Zona Romantica, and the soothing sound of the river is worth every additional step.

Went with my partner to PV in June 2024. This hotel was perfect - best place I've ever stayed anywhere. Everything was stunning. Pools are incredible. Views: immaculate. Service was fantastic and so warm and friendly. The cat, Elizabeth, even cuddled with us on our last night! Everything was clean. Location was also walkable to the beach, boardwalk, and many many great restaurants and bars. Amazing street food near the church in the evenings! Would recommend this place to anyone.

Lovely and little bohemian escape
The hotel did not have our reservation through hotels.com on file, so they had to find us a different room. It took a little while and it was a different room than I booked, but had a beautiful view and overlooked the river. We loved the decor and location. It was dreamy! Jerry was very nice and the pools and hot tubs (with bar on top floor) were great. We walked everywhere. It was lovely.

Decepcionante
Durante mi estancia no limpiaron bien la habitación, no cambiaron en ningún momento las sabanas, ni fundas, ni sobre cama, aún viendo que estaban manchadas o sucias, no lavaron la tina ni el wc. Instalaciones viejas y en malas condiciones.Pésimo servicio, la de la recepción una déspota. No regresaría ahí por ningún motivo.

The whole hotel was so charming and unique. I loved everything about it, you really get the authentic Mexico experience here with the location. I seen previous reviews that complained about water pressure but it was fine for me. I was in the scarlet room and it was beautiful, small but we didn’t need anything bigger (maybe just more closet space for clothes) the deep bathtub and balcony was lovely. The only downside was the air conditioner leaked a lot, there was a huge puddle on the floor when we woke up but we told the front desk person and it was fixed later that day. Yes you will hear dogs barking but we slept with some white noise on YouTube and the AC on so it didn’t affect our sleep. It’s a quick walk to the beach and if you want to try breakfast out of the hotel go to mi cafe, it’s only 2 blocks away and amazing breakfast.

Loved everything about this hotel. It’s a cute small quirky boutique hotel & everyone was so friendly. We were greeted by chips & Guac & a complimentary drink from the bar. Rigo provided us with amazing service & him and the staff were able to upgrade us for free to a better room because it was my bfs birthday's. They even had the room decorated for his special day which we loved. I also loved how they call a taxi for you if needed, so getting around was never an issue. This hotel is close to everything and walking distance from the malecon. If you’re looking for an Affordable nice hotel to stay at then i HIGHLY recommend this hotel. I will definitely be back.

You will really enjoy Mexico’s beauty and culture is you stay here. The location is just amazing!! The hotel itself has a lot of character and beautiful views all around. The people working here are super friendly and very helpful. The breakfast was delicious. I will definitely stay here again. Very easy to find street tacos around the area. Those are the tacos I enjoyed the most. Walkable distance everywhere. To the Malecon, to the bank to the shops to the street markets. Very easy to get taxi and uber. We mostly walked everywhere. I really loved this place.
