“Great balconies, great value in a budget hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 December 2006
5
people found this review helpful

I stayed at the Villa del Mar (Madero 440) for 10 days or so and for about $20 got a great room with brick walls, wood furniture and a great little balcony. It was a really great value and very well located right in the center of the Zona Romantica close to many budget restaurants, etc. I did take a look at the non-balcony rooms--they're not so nice, spent the little extra and get a balcony. The rooms seem like they might vary quite a bit too so ask to see several if you're not happy with the first one. My one caveat was that my room was right on the Madero so it was noisy.

Note that many of the reviews listed for this hotel are actually for the Villa del Palmar .. a luxuy resort in the hotel zone nowhere near this property. Don't get confused.

  • Liked — balconies, charm, value
  • Disliked — noise
  • Tips/Secrets — get a balcony on Madero

“Room not good for relaxing”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 November 2006

person found this review helpful

We had placed our time share unit in Hawaii that has a view into Interval. We chose this property as it had tennis courts. What a mistake. Courts in BAD shape, no program to connect us with other tennis players. Rooms were outdated with No view. Couch so uncomfortable and kitchen so old that we spent NO time in the room. It was clean! We got placed in the old building since nothing was available in the one we had selected. We were greately dissappointed in the whole situaiton. We will never return there. We were constantly accousted by those trying to get us to attend time share presentations. Not fun.

“A taste of Mexico in this bustling tourist town”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 November 2003

people found this review helpful

How many times over how many years have we stayed here? Too many to count over a period of 25 years. Family run, really nice folks. It disturbed us a bit when this place was "found" by the glut of gringo tourists a number of years ago. Many memories here. Lots of love. Great view from the roof. Grab a ballena and c'mon on up (bring a chair). Look around the neighborhood. Have a morning licuado, go to the bakery...have some ceviche for lunch on the way to the beach. Walk, enjoy, speak Spanish. Let the colors and smells surround you.BnC
