What a great spot to find. Dog friendly, clean, and safe. Quick walk to ZR. Insider tip, ask for a room away from the main road. Also, be aware you can’t leave your dog in the room. Overall, this doesn’t take away from my trip.

Puerto Vallarta, perfect location
Great staff, great location, great bar and restaurant. It is a 3 Star hotel so not perfect. I would like to see more and better towels. Also, freezer compartment in the refrigerator would be a bonus. We will come back here and I would recommend this to my friends.

Affordable hotel near the malecón. Loved how walkable everything is to the pharmacy and OXXO etcétera. Front staff is friendly. The room was just as described and had space to put my stuff down. Would stay there again.

The main perk of this hotel is that is close to the malecón and the city center. Front desk staff was friendly and welcoming. The room was small and the AC made a bit of noise but overall for the price it was good.
