Located near historic sites but a bit away from the crowds. The line 3 light rail is a couple of blocks away and connects to both the main bus station and the historic center of Zapopan. The building is a historic treasure and staff is outstanding with a family feel and great service. The historic center is a great place to be located.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
A manera de comentario, en las habitaciones deberían tener todas Smart TV, ya que funcionaría mejor para tener más opciones de entretenimiento para toda la familia. La habitación que me toco, tenía control de Smart TV con una televisión normal, solo eso a manera de comentario, tendrían los huéspedes mejores amenidades. También, sería de revisar los controles, ya que algunos cuentan con las teclas gastadas, por lo que no se alcanza a ver nada en el control. Algo que si, se puede mejorar es en la limpieza, más que nada, en la hora de limpieza. El aseo de los cuartos se hacía muy tarde. A veces me tocaba regresar a las 4pm a la habitación y está aún no se hacía, y a veces no me dejaban el shampoo o jabones, tenía que buscar a la camarista para solicitarselos.
