Hotel Pochote Mazunte

We enjoyed our stay, but we had an uncomfortable situation when checking out. We were “accused” of taking a small washcloth, and the manager wanted 200 pesos for it, approximately $10 US. Why on earth he thought that we would want to steal a dirty washcloth that we used in the shower is beyond me, but it left a bad taste in our mouths. We think that the child who cleans the room took the washcloth out of our room the day before we left. The manager even asked us to leave our bags unattended for a bit. My partner did not feel comfortable with this, so who knows if there was some sort of plot for someone to grab our bags from us. Otherwise, while our room was on a noisy street, it was clean and comfortable. The restaurant was good as well. However, I would not feel comfortable staying her again, given our experience.

The hotel is in the center of town, on the Main Street. So the sounds can be VERY noisy. For us with a baby, it was difficult. We were in a beautiful room with a nice balcony facing the main road, but the traffic noise and street noise was too noisy. They were very kind and moved us in to a smaller but still very beautifully set room in the back (no balcony), but the night there was a huge party right in front of the hotel that went til midnight and it was a nightmare. The staff are top notch though, very understanding and accommodating. And the design of the hotel is very nice, clean, spacious. I would say for singles and couples who want to party or don’t mind noise, it’s a great place to stay. But for families with babies, a bit loud.
