Hotel is outdated and in need or upkeep!
Overall facility is in need of remodeling/upkeep. The bathroom in our guest room was in very tuff shape with cracked tile, leaky sink and general need of repair. Staff were friendly and helpful and overall service was pretty good. The location on the beach and near the downtown area was very good, but the surrounding facilities are similar in that they need to be updated. I would not recommend staying at this facility.

Good service, older building
Though the hotel is older and bathrooms not updated as I would have expected, the location was excellent, service was exemplary. They made every effort to make sure our stay was enjoyable. Food was good, though only choices were the buffet which offered many options or poolside fast food. We had an all inclusive package and felt the value and enjoyment for the cost was terrific!! We would return!!

Very Tired Old Hotel
The Avalon must have been something when Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis frequented Acapulco! It has unfortunately not been updated since. While clean and reasonably priced, we got an "Executive Room" and had noisy fans, limited A/C, a door with 1" gaps at top and bottom, lights in the bathroom that didn’t work, only 2 of 4 elevators working. The hotel was full during our stay and it was straining the staff to keep up. On the plus side, there was a VERY nice beach and our ocean view room on the 9th floor had a great view of Acapulco Bay. The hotel is toward the end of the hotel strip, and a 3 minute cab ride from the Cruise Terminal. If you are looking for an OK, but cheap place to stay for one night before going on a cruise, I guess this would be OK.
