stayed there Sept 22, 2011 and paid 1,100 pesos (at 13x1) for jr. suite 324, with park view, which we wanted with all the inherent noise, as we live in the desert and need some stressy sounds twice a year. The hotel is quite okay, 3 blocks from Sanborns and right at pedestrian shopping area. However downtown GDL is not really a shopping area by euro or American standards, it;s a mix of hardware stores, junk food and factory "boutiques". The hotel staff was average friendly and the place was clean, yet uninspiring, free underground parking. Compared to Morales and de Mendoza, same thing, really, if you're driving, great spot to get into and out of city, right turn and 10 minutes to Tlaquepaque, left and 4 blocks then left again, 20 minutes to Vallarta Avenue, shopping and dance clubs, restaurants galore. So for 2 days in GDL, especially with a car and or needing taxis, I'd say not a bad place, just don't expect colonial furniture or fixings....
