Despite being a block from the beach, this hotel has more of a downtown feel, and sits on pretty Lázaro Cárdenas Park. Rooms are generally plain but clean, and there's a great city-and-mountain view from the rooftop, which has a pool and party area. Studios have small kitchenettes in one corner; suites have larger kitchens, separate bedroom, and two quiet air-conditioners. Units with great views (#511-514) cost the same as those without, so ask for one con vista panorámica (with a panoramic view). Pros: Snug studios overlook park, large pool on roof. Cons: No parking, mainly older a/c units.
