Hostal de San Pedro

Cholula


This hostel is a quick stroll from the zócalo and has clean, comfy beds in a quiet location. There is no TV and no alcohol is allowed, but upstairs rooms are built around a sunny terrace where you could easily pass an afternoon alone. If you end up staying even longer, there are long-term deals with laundry use.
