Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The location was superb, nestled between Olas Altas boulevard and the plaza, offering easy access to restaurants, markets, and the vibrant Machado Plaza. The rooms varied from efficiency singles to luxurious 2-bedroom apartments, all equipped with a fully furnished kitchen, cozy living room, and spacious bedroom with a bathroom. The hotel's service was courteous, but the absence of 24-hour service was noticeable. The vicinity to Mazatlan's historic district made exploring the city convenient and exciting. However, the hotel lacked dining options beyond Italian coffee, and that was a downside. The facilities were top-notch, providing water dispensers and sofa covers in rooms, although certain features like light fixtures in the bedroom could be improved.
