El hotel está muy bien ubicado dentro del pueblo de Tlalpujahua y tiene varias opciones de restaurantes, puestos de comida y cafés cerca. El personal fue muy amable y servicial, estuvieron siempre pendientes de que no nos hiciera falta nada. El hotel es una construcción antigua con mucho encanto, sin embargo, las habitaciones pueden resultar frías en invierno debido a que los marcos de las puertas y ventanas están hechos de madera vieja que no sella por completo. En general la habitación estaba limpia, las camas no son muy cómodas y ya lucen algo viejas.
