I needed to spend a night in this town and opted for this motel because of the location and favorable reviews. It is a 3-5 minute walk from the town center. Room is spacious with a queen size bed, air conditioning and a tv. The shower took a long while to get hot, like around 5 minutes. It wasn't a complete turn off for me because the weather was over 90 F outside. They offer 1 complimentary small bar of Rosa soap and a tiny bag of shampoo. I didn’t try the tv because I was insanely exhausted from the long bus trip and didn’t enjoy the pool either. Air condition worked perfectly. The motel was insanely quiet and peaceful, I also felt insanely safe. Price for a single room is accesible at only 600 mexican pesos per night. If I ever need to spend an evening in the town again, I'd definitely stay here again.
