I was recommended this hotel by a cousin. In downtown walkable little stores to buy waters and sodas cheap. A must get is a room with breakfast included, talk about getting started the day right. Lots of options and slight daily menu variations. All the staff were so nice, very helpful even if you didn’t take speak Spanish. Bring lots of 1 and 5 for tips, a little tip goes along away. When we were leaving our room I gave a five dollar tip to the housekeeper, that had been keeping our room nice and tidy, she was so grateful. She gave me a great big hug.
