In a busy market area with several boisterous dive bars nearby, this spotless and surprisingly comfy budget hotel offers a glimpse of Zihua's non-touristy side. Despite all the activity going on, you'll get a good night's rest here and the pool out back makes a decent spot for cooling off. At last visit the wi-fi was slooow.
