Great convenient location, excellent staff, housekeeping. Super clean room. Very basic but worth the price. And safe, has an extra gate that requires a key also prior to getting to the rooms. Also has a refrigerator that worked great. Would definitely stay here again.

Nice place for a couple of nights, The staff were very nice, parking can be a challenge, but for a place in downtown cabo to even offer it was nice. The hotel is very basic, not in a bad way, it is in a great location and they are very friendly.

The hotel looks a tad sketchy from the outside, but has good locks/security. Walking distance to multiple restaurants, stores, and the marina.
Nothing fancy, but had clean rooms, a mini fridge, a TV, and the AC blew cold cold air.
In addition to restaurants, bars, etc., Surrounding area (and it seems to be like this in the general area) has a plethora of pharmacies and massage parlors.
For guys going down to fish, guys going down to hang out and party, definitely worth considering.

Super clean, best value in downtown Cabo
We have been visiting Cabo for over 30 years, and this is the best hotel for the money that we have ever stayed in. Although it appears to be an older hotel from the outside, it has apparently had extensive updating on the inside. It is very well appointed, is extremely clean, and the management is friendly. Also, there is very little street noise, which is uncommon for a downtown location.

Well keep, nice and clean, friendly and helpful staff. Glad I didn’t rent a car. It would have been difficult to find a place to park it for the night. Lots to see and do within walking distance. Lots of shopping from cultural crafts to Walmart and everything in between. Also many places to eat.

The hotel was good. It wad about the location, everything was less than a 10 minute walk like marina and beaches. Less than a 2 minute walk to downtown where stores and restaurants. The shopping plaza that is like a mall is 15 minutes away and the Walmart is right across from there. Room was clean and air conditioner worked great. It decent and great price. The staff was helpful and friendly. Our rom was cleaned daily and the plus there was a fridge. Planning to go back with family and will stay there.

The room was very clean. The location was great. Check in was flawless and they allowed us early check in which was greatly appreciated since we had arrived from a 24 hour boat ride at 9 in the morning. The only issue was they did not clean the room during our 2 nights stay. This may have been by design but I did not see any door hangers to either request or decline the cleaning. There was a sign in Spanish in small print which may have explained this which I did not translate. So the cleaning schedule may have been explained in that sign. Regardless, I was very happy with this hotel.
