The property is right across the street from Mazatlan’s malecon, And very conveniently located for many dining options across from or on the beach. The pool deck on the top of the building off, spectacular views, as too many of the rooms above level four. An excellent breakfast is included in the stay, which is a rarity these days and very appreciated. An all around wonderful place to stay at the southern terminus of Mazatlan’s beach front.
