Loved the property and their staff is wonderful. The breakfast they offer is authentic Mexican food and that was a nice surprise. The hotel is located in downtown but you feel safe and although it’s updated it doesn’t lose the Mexican flair. Would definitely stay again when we visit Guadalajara.

Great service. Clean room. WiFi worked well. The pool was warm. They offer pool towels and extra wash towels. The following week I went to Hotel Santiago Compostela and had a bad experience that left me wishing I went to hotel morales again.
