A very nice place with vintage Mexican charme. We liked our room very much - small concessions in comfort are easily outweighed by staying in such a well-kept historic building. All staff was very friendly and helpful and the restaurant in the basement was great for having fresh, typical breakfast. The central location made it a good starting and meeting point, too.

“The room was an inexpensive, comfortable place to stay the night before the Xalapa Marathon.”
It was very inexpensive, and the room was cozy and charming. I also liked that it was very close to the marathon starting line, where I needed to go in the morning.
