  • The guy who checked me in tried to overcharge, despite my reservation. I had to renegotiate my rate (he tried to charge 320 pesos when I should have only been paying him 220). I got him honor what was on my printed out reservation, but he was definitely not happy about it. The toilet didn't have a seat on it, just the rim. Fine if you're not sharing a toilet with boys. I know it's pretty common to have this be the case in Mexico/Central America though. Sheets not clean and were stained.

  • It was centrally located, clean and with balconies with views of the city. We had a private one which was lovely. The owner was once the mayor of Taxco. He was very helpful, friendly and with lots of information to share. A really lovely place in a lovely city!

  • They didn't find my reservation when i arrived, and worst, they didn't have the room that i've booked in advance. They gave me an inferior room not too much clean with a dirty comparted bathroom. There was no warm water in the shower too. However, the staff tried to help me with all my things.

  • Hotel has cute courtyard and awesome rooftop terrances with sun chairs and a view of the cathedral. The rooms are basic and pretty clean. The bathrooms, however, were grimy and moldy, and there was no hot water the two days we were there.
