“Nice budget hotel in the "5 de Diciembre" section of Puerto Vallarta. Place is clean and well maintained, rooms accommodating, staff friendly and helpful, short walk to the Camarones beach and walkable distance to the famous Malecon de PV. Enjoyable stay.”

“Had a long term stay here of about 2.5 weeks and this is an excellent no frills hotel in a great location. The staff is friendly and kind, the rooms are clean, and the beach is only a couple blocks away.”

“My friend and I loved the simple breakfast with our complimentary coffee. She got earplugs because her room was next to the staircase. It was a busy week! Good hotel and great if you’re on a budget. The location is awesome! It’s only a few blocks from the beach and malecon.”
