Very clean. Nice people. Very courteous. In the other hand, other tenants very noisy, and some of them getting in and out at all times of the day and night. Leaving they truck on way too long. No consideration for others. But hotel personnel give excellent service as they can.

Mi familia y yo vamos seguido a Amatlán ya que es pueblo natal de mi papá y siempre nos hospedamos en este hotel, las personas que atienden son muy hamables pero son muy serias y da pie a qué se malinterprete que son delicados pero no es así, son muy atentos y amables de echo viajamos con una perrita que también es bien recibida x los dueños las habitaciones son muy cómodas pensando que es un pueblo osea habitaciones de un pueblo! Solo la tele si me gustaría que tubieran más canales ya que no tienen mucha variedad perooo no es problema para mí, solo es sugerencia!
