The hotel property is ideal for exploring Zihuatanejo and the staff are very personal and friendly. The hotel should acquaint themselves to the activities in the area and promote them as activities to do i.e. pickleball, tennis, etc.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The property has that original charm but could definitely use some maintenance and subtle upgrades. Staff were very friendly but the restaurant service wasn’t that great. Rooms are a good size and the balcony’s also large with great views. Could use a bit better deep clean with regards to the dirt build up on the fans and cobwebs in corners. All in all I would stay here again as the location is great, price is good, and the food was quite good.

Amazing views! Endless uneven stairs. Older people or someone with any health problems be aware...you have to climb all day. The rooms are very dated. Furniture, linens, pillows all are in a bad shape. Even the beach furniture are in a terrible condition. A slow and little water at the shower. The breakfast is good but it takes 1 hour. La Ropa beach is heaven.

Classic Mexico, Right on the beach
This place is a classic old Mexican resort, right on the beach. Great convenient location. And pretty affordable for where it is. Lots of stairs to keep you in shape on your vacation. Staff was friendly and attentive. Watch the sunset from your deck, and go to sleep to the sound of waves.
