If you travel on your own and need a stay between visits to Ek Balam and Chichen Itza this is the place. Maybe old, not highest standard of equipment, but this is a place for one or two nights to get quick access to attractions arround. And for that it is excellent. Fantastic location, easy to find, great people providing... More

I thought this was clean, good service, nice poolside restaurant with good local food and REAL mexican hot chocolate! The included breakfast had fresh fruit, the milk still had cream ontop, and the butter was fresh churned. I liked that this hotel chain was Mexican owned and had the flavour of mexico. It was very close to the ruins and... More

Very close to the Chichen Itza site, confortable and affordable accomodatiom. Beware of mosquitoes, not the hotel fault, they put screening on all windows, but you should bring repelent. There is a pool and a beautiful cenote across from the hotel.

Went here for dinner. The prices made us wary of the quality. We were pleasantly surprised. Good (strong) margaritas too. There fish and chicken were especially good. You can have a complete sinner for $12 per person.

I have stated at this hotel way back in 2000 and again last month. It has not lost any of it's charm. It is exactly where you should stay when exploring Mexico.
