Putting in a solid performance in Morelia’s somewhat scant budget end of the market, the Valladolid delivers the basics: 21 clean, no-frills, relatively modern rooms with flat-screen TVs and small bathrooms. It lacks the embellishments of some of Morelia’s more historic establishments, but if it's just a crash pad you're after, it'll do the trick nicely.
