"Very clean room and comfortable bed. Quiet at night even on the weekend which is surprising. Biggest thing they need are curtains or a proper dark blind on the windows. Clear blinds are not good. There was a little issue checking in as they took a little while to confirm the booking from hotels.com, but it was fine. Also no clear parking so you have to find somewhere on the local streets. As for El Cuco. Skip it. It's a locals dump."
