A centrally located city hotel in which we stayed one night. All pretty much ok, with a particulary good breakfast.

A good hotel with an old-world atmosphere - well-appointed rooms, good service. Breakfast was good, but pricey. We took the bus from the port and then a taxi to get to the hotel. The bus to El Fuerte the next morning was only a few blocks away.

We stayed here due to a change in our itinerary prompted by my daughter's ear infection. We were booked at another Balderamma Hotel but my daughter's ear was too uncomfortable at altitude (Copper Canyon) so we left early and were offered this fine hotel in place of the one we had originally booked (it is on our route). Let me just say that we are very impressed and it is a finer hotel than a family of 5 travelling through Mexico is used to.
I have stayed in many fine hotels, just not on this trip. It is clean and professional and centrally located with secure parking. The tap water is purified and there is complementary WiFi. Our check in proces was VERY smooth and the bellboy was patient and efficient (we have a lot of awkward baggage due to this being a road trip).
There is no pool here but other than that, it seems to have what you need. The restaurant prices are lower than the other Balderamma hotel we stayed at (Posada del Hidaldo which I also recommend - excellent sercive and a very charming hotel)

Stayed there on our trip to Mazatlan. It is easy tofind and the room are nice. We had 2 beds and a couch. Free WiFI. We could plug in our magicjack and call home and then use our slingbox to watch the Yankees win.
The hotel is 51 years old and very nice. We woould stay there again.
