They did not speak any English and appeared to find my broken Spanish offensive. AC worked great. Remember you are in Mexico - so cable would fuzz out once in a while. Come prepared and don't expect help from the front desk employees. I made the mistake of coming from NY hoping for information on Matamoros from the front desk - but they were not helpful. Surrounding area very clean and safe. Excellent restaurant right across street with waiters and staff that were fluent in English and very helpful.

Oh and I must say the air condition was so cold which made for a very good night sleep. The bed was nice and comfortable as well. The grounds were well kept WiFi worked real good and ice was easy to get as well. They offered free complimentary breakfast which I did not use. They had a swimming pool which I was not able to make it to but I also noticed there was a back area with benches and bbq grills as well. The neighborhood was quiet and it is located in a nice area with plenty of restaurants around the area. All and all it was a very pleasant stay and if ever I have to go back to that area I will stay there again.

Only plus side to this was they did give me a ride to the bus station the next day. There was no mini fridge or microwave. Bed was uncomfortable and pillow was a joke. If you were paying $30 a night you would expect accommodations like this. But no, I paid a discounted rate of $75 when I booked online, when I called them before I booked the room they quoted me $90.
