Nos hospedamos 1 noche antes de continuar nuestro camino hasta chiapas, muy cómodo y el agua bien calientita en la mañana antes de continuar, recomendado para pasar la noche, no hay WiFi para quienes sean un poco mas exigentes pero por el precio esta excelente

600 pesos la habitación individual a la fecha de hoy, con cama matrimonial, A/A, Tv, baño, agua caliente! Tiene estacionamiento tipo motel americano, cumple con todo, quizá el ruido de los trailers sea algo molesto, por sentido común esta ubicado a orilla de carretera!

El precio es cómodo de hecho muy accesible. Gracias!!!
