Enjoyable stay.

Have never stayed in a beachside hotel and quite loved it. The hotel is older but clean and well kept. I loved the barrel vaulted brick ceilings. So authentically Mexican. The location is perfect, at the north end of the Malecon easy walking distance to everything, but generally quiet (except for the squeals of joy). There is a decent restaurant on site with many good ones within walking distance. Beds were comfortable, sheets and towels were clean and bathrooms sparkled. All in all a good spot to stay.

Great place on the beach! Clean rooms, friendly employees and walking distance to shops/restaurants and malecón. They also provide a discount coupon for buffet breakfast, which you will only pay $5 dollars. I would have loved longer pool hours.

10/10 Exceptional

I just had my first experience at El Pescador where I stayed one night between coming back from Yelapa and flying home (US - Midwest). I had a pleasant experience. All of the common areas are well kept and the service was some of the best I've received. Room was clean and in totally acceptable condition given the age of the hotel itself. The mattresses are firm. My room was on the second floor overlooking the pool. I noticed no sewage smell at any time during my 22 hour stay. My room was ready despite my arriving at 1:30pm. The FREE breakfast is only juice, coffee, a plate of daily fruit, and bread with butter and jam. The bread was delicious as was the watermelon, and the meal was completely satisfying. If you are expecting a 3 star hotel that is clean with a restaurant and exceptional service, and a nice clean pool, this is a great spot. Malecon is only a few blocks, and there is lots of shopping on the way there. The beach was nice but not Los Muertos nice. I understand the fence as there is some graffiti and those without housing who sleep on the beach, so the fence is necessary for security purposes. If you are turned off by a minor amount of graffiti and homeless presence, then you likely would not be happy here. I would absolutely stay again for a similar trip. What could be improved - I had 3 towels and a bathmat in the bathroom but no hand towel(s) or washclothe(s). A microwave if not in the room, in a common area, would be nice to heat up left overs versus having to

Dissatisfied

Way too noisy! Do not stay in room 18; across from the elevator! I mentioned this to staff, but they did not offer another room. I don’t speak Spanish to my detriment; therefore, unable to make my concerns known. Also, noisy due to renovations, I think? Their sister hotel, Rosita has a much, much better food selection. Hair dryer must be pick up from the front desk, and it’s subpar!

BUDGET FRIENDLY

Excellent economy, hotel. On the beach very nice service. My only complaint would be the lumpy mattress and hard lumpy pillows. Excellent choice if you’re on a budget, which my friend and I were.
