This hotel is in the center of town right in the middle of the main pedestrian street, Hidalgo. You almost don't notice it because its tucked into a recessed courtyard with a beautiful bougainvillea growing at a broken fountain. The downstairs rooms are cheap but you get what you pay for. Don't pay in advance, pay by the night in case its not what you expected. There is a DSL speed computer as well as a refrigerator and water dispenser outside the hotel office for use by customers. The manager is on the premises from about 10 AM-11 PM.
The rooms have TVs and you can pay extra for A/C but then the price isn't worth it and it sometimes doesn't work. The beds are very uncomfortable with old linens and pillows. The bathrooms are built into the room so the shower steam goes into the room instead of being vented outside. The light is dim - just an uncovered bulb hanging down. There is little space for hang up clothes. Its unusually quiet for Isla except that all the screen doors slam which can be annoying late at night. The overhead fans don't work and are caked with dust.
UPSTAIRS there are a couple of newly renovated rooms that are more expensive. It is much warmer upstairs but there are room refrigerators and one room has A/C. The beds are new and everything is much nicer. If you are just looking for a cheap place to stay, its fine but if you want comfort, look somewhere else.
