“Great week in Mexico”

The hotel was extremely nice and the staff made sure we had everything we needed. They would get cabs or make reservations for us any time we asked. The complimentary breakfast was surprisingly good as was the hotel restaurant. The snack bar also had very good and very cheap food the guacamole was fantastic. My only complaints would be that the beds weren't comfortable and their no elevator. It was 12 stories to our room!

Area recommendations
La Ropa beach. It's a beautiful well-kept beach with great food and hotels. It has the old world fel of mexico. Ixtapa is nice but mostly a tourist trap.

“Is not a good choise.”

The hotel is very cheap, but is very far of the other beaches. I dont like the rooms. There is NO TV in the room and no A/C. The people at receptions was not so nice.

Area recommendations
I recommended Ixtapa Beach. The sea is clean and near to the other atractions.
Dining
We recommended in Ixtapa Beach the restaurant EMILIOS. Its a very good place, cheap and delicious pizza.

“Extraordinary View - Good Value”

This is an old hotel that has been reasonably well maintained. The room was large and the furniture adequate. The ceiling fan and free flow of air through the inside area provided a fresh atmosphere (some rooms are air conditioned but that was not a priority for us). The terrace was was huge and had the most spectacular view of the harbor, town and surrounding hills. It was so impressive that we invited our friends, who visited for the day from a cruise ship, to join us there for much of the day. The restaurent was good and prices at or below comparable places in town. The staff was friendly. Free wireless internet was available in the comfortable lobby area. The hotel is built on a steep slope down the hillside, and no elevator service is available. Stair access to the lower levels, pool and beachfront is good. This is not a hotel for handicapped guests. The price we paid through Expedia (as compared to the advertised rack rate) made this a good value place to stay.

Area recommendations
Harbor front.
Traveler's tip
Road access from the north, through Uruapan or Morelia, is by a new high speed toll road. Otherwise, the area is serviced by air.

Area:

Zihuatanejo, Guerrero, Mexico: On the Pacific Coast of Guerrero, Mexico, the city of Zihuatanejo has worked hard to retain its “village” look and feel. Many downtown streets are still paved with cobblestones, and zoning laws prohibit buildings over 4 stories. A brick-paved beachfront promenade runs along Playa La Madera and Playa Principal to the pier, and all beaches along the bay are safe for swimming.
