The location is VERY central, on one of the main square of the old town (zona colonial). It is great to go around and visit the city, but is is very busy with many restaurants, lots of people singing on the square, etc. So get very good ear plugs or do not expect to have silence outside of the hotel before 1 or 2 am. Even better go out to dance and come back only in the early morning. The staff is nice and the rooms are clean and well maintained. There a no elevator, so expect to climb quite a few steps.
