We walked in (Aug '11) and got a room on the other side of the road (with common bathroom) for 150 Pesos. For the price, the room was really nice (if small), and we loved the intricately folded towels. The bathroom wasn't the cleanest but it had hot water. The WiFi signal didn't reach our room so we had to... More

This is a nice hotel with a lovely garden and great views from the terrace. We took one of the rooms on the third floor to have more light. The rooms are a good size, nicely decorated and with a decent bathroom. The room is a good deal at 400 pesos but breakfast wasn’t included. We went to a great... More

Stayed here on 10/31 & 11/1 (Day of the Dead). Walked in without reservation and got 2 seperate rooms (myself and father) at 250 Pesos/Night/Room ($20 US). Rooms were across street in older section of hotel, but had good basic cable and fantastic hot water shower. Bed was comfortable too and housekeeping thorough. Did not eat in hotel or use... More

We stayed in this hotel for 3 nights. When we arrived they couldn't find our reservation but they managed to find a room for the first night. They then said we would have to change to the hotel across the road for the other two nights. As it turned out this didn't happen. The room was on the top floor... More

Basic rooms with a good hot shower! Only disadvantage is that the rooms are humid, the towels did not dry well. The hotel is at a good location and is reasonable priced (550 pesos for a double). More

The shame about this place is that the rooms and the building are actually pretty but it is totally let down by the staff who were disinterested from the moment we arrived till the moment we left in terms of making sure our stay was a comfortable and pleasant as possible. Quite honestly it felt like they were going out... More

It can be quite cold at night in San Cristobal during the winter but this place does not supply any heating - we kept the bathroom door closed as there was a slatted window that did not close. The furnishings were very plain and we had to ask for more hangers. The tv did not work and was not fixed... More

First of all, we didn't spent a night in the posada jovel. I've made a reservation three months in advance and they told me that I had to sent my creditcarddata by mail, to which I reacted that I would contact them again when I arrived in Mexico, because I rather won't send these data through the internet. They didn't... More

I am always cynical of people who leave bad reviews and would rather say nothing if I have nothing good to say but the night here was a nightmare. We booked to stay here after reading good reviews in The Lonely Planet guide. There are two sides to the hotel one opposite sides of the street, one being more luxurious... More

The staff is charming, the location is decent and the rooms are clean. If you're a couple you might wanna consider taking a room with a bigger bed. The standard double room has a pretty small bed. This a usually the case in the hotels in Mexico but this bed was realy small in our opinion. You'll get a discount... More
