An old hotel in Acapulco in the El Quebrada District. It is dated, not very modern, but they are currently renovating rooms and the renovations are great! It's reasonably priced. Get a room overlooking the world-famous cliff diving - four times a day and you'll have a back-row seat! Be prepared to climb stairs -this hotel has tons- elevators (outside/mountainside only) not working the whole week I was there - and there were only two anyway. From my room, was 426 steps to the closest pool and back, uphill! Not for the timid of heart! A wonderful hotel, though if you aren't requiring first class!

Rooms, as stated, were dated but plenty of space. We had a queen bed and an l-shaped couch "thing" - a person could sleep on each. Larger rooms are available. No coffeemaker, showers were "iffy" but hot water was not needed as we were there in July.

Restaurant was wonderful and staff very friendly and helpful at hotel and restaurant. No complaints at all with service; they tended to go above and beyond to assist.

I would recommend this hotel to a budget-minded traveller who is not looking for luxury but would be impressed with the history of this hotel.
