Villamercedes Petit Hotel (Puerto Vallarta, Mexico)

Night owls will be happy with the location of this hotel as it is in the heart of Zona Romantica, meaning you are right near to lots of lively nightlife on an evening. Before that of course you have the day to contend with, so it helps that you will be a only a short walk from the beach where you can relax while catching some rays.

The vast majority of guests make a point of saying how comfortable and clean the hotel is. Though it is a no-frills type of establishment, staff evidently take great pride in providing as good an experience as possible.

Rather than trust the tap water, guests are welcome to access free filtered drinking water. This is considered a nice touch, especially as it is something that will save you money because you will not have to buy yourself bottled water.

Lots of guests have remarked negatively on the free continental breakfast. On the one hand, yes it is free. However, it is said to be very basic and really not enough to get you set up for the day. On the plus side, there are lots of alternative breakfast options very close by for you to choose from.

Some guests have said there has been a lack of hot water at some busier times, including on a morning, meaning you could end up having to take a cold shower.

The Wi-Fi connection is said to be hit and miss, with a number of guests saying that the signal is unreliable.
