Muy buena atencion por parte de recepcion, las habitaciones son amplias, limpias, las camas son comodas y cuentan con aire acondicionado, la piscina es comunitaria pero es suficientemente amplia, no es muy profunda y tiene un pequeño jacuzzi.

I have enjoyed the Romero restaurant in La Arcada twice. Best traditional Mexican food ever! (the same owner/chef as Los Raices en la Ancha). Fantastic, quiet atmosphere. Easy off-street parking right in front of the hotel.

It's a good place for rest, they have a game room, pool and more, however single rooms are near from the street and at night they are noisy. I suggest double rooms because they are far from the street. Across from the hotel you can found one buss stop whit direction to center of San Miguel
