Si necesitas donde dormir y quedarte porque vas de paso en Tapachula, el Hotel cumple, el precio es accesible, el servicio fue muy bueno, estaba limpio, nos dieron las comodidades básicas. No se puede pedir mas, por lo que pagas. Un equivalente a $ 420.00 pesos en habitación doble Q 190.00 quetzales o un poco menos de $ 25.00. Recomendado si vas de paso.

Las habitaciones bien para el precio, aire acondicionado y limpio, los chicos muy amables siempre yo les pedía jabón y papel y siempre me dieron sin ningún problema, No hay toallas así que mentalizarse en comprar o llevar la suya propia, y está frente a la terminal así que bien ubicado
