El Descanso Inn

The pool was great and the location is right off the highway, but there was no fridge or microwave.

“Functional, overall safe, good parking, easy access to highway 15-D”

Check‑in was smooth and the staff were friendly; parking was right outside the door, and there was a community pool and a restaurant with a single table and chair—another chair would have helped. My wife had trouble sleeping because cars were coming in, parking, and unpacking, but I slept fine; the AC worked well and access from Highway 15‑D was easy. Prices were reasonable for a no‑frills motel. The bedding was poor, two windows didn’t seal completely, the shower dripped, and the towels were low quality. A microwave, small fridge, and a more thorough room clean would have been appreciated, and a deadbolt lock would have made the door feel more secure. I might stay again, but I’d check for pet‑friendly options.

I liked that it had availability. It was far away.

“Glad to leave.”

I parked just off the highway, which was convenient since we were on our way and didn’t need to head into Mazatlán. The price, however, was absurdly high for what we received, and they added 300 pesos for our two cats. It turned out to be the most expensive hotel we stayed at during our entire 7‑night trip, including five nights in the States. Breakfast was lackluster: warmed‑over, dry scrambled eggs that seemed like leftovers, burned hot dog pieces, a scant amount of refried beans that tasted slightly stale, insufficient pancakes, and chilaquiles that were just okay. Coffee was instant, there was no juice or fruit, only some yogurt, cold toast, Coco Puffs, and a handful of flakes. Their main clientele appear to be truckers who probably pay less than half of what we were charged. The hotel is huge and largely empty, yet we were placed next to a unit under renovation, and at 8 a.m. an angle grinder started up. Cleaning was superficial; the previous kitty litter box placement was obvious because no one swept before mopping. Other signs of poor cleaning were scattered throughout the room. The toilet seat kept sliding, the air‑conditioning was noisy and ineffective, and the TV was small for the space. We’re not picky, but we would have been happy to pay 600 pesos for the night without the extra pet fee. If they did a bit more cleaning and lowered the price, they could fill those empty units with travelers like us. Instead, they’re charging luxury ocean‑front rates while being far from the ocean.

“We stay there when we’re on our way down to our place in Mexico twice”

The hotel was clean, convenient, and the staff were friendly. They don’t provide coffee in the rooms in the morning, but breakfast is served unless you leave early.
