Pongo 3 estrellas porque enseguida de nuestro cuarto estaba construyendo otro cuarto nuevo. Nunca fueron para avisarnos que iba a pasar esto, entonces fue incómodo despertarse con sonidos de construcción, en un lugar donde se busca tranquilidad. En general el hotel vale totalmente la pena, entiendo que lo sucedido conmigo es algo de una sola vez (espero), lo recomiendo muchisimo

Unfortunately, I had reserved a quiet room. But first of all there was building work done within the property which had noise all day. And at night it was very noisy with music bands. It was defenetly not a stay for a person that will like to rest!

Reserved the total view room which was amazing, 100 stairs up. Sketchy stairs and ramps! Good food, nice folks. Fun international vibe. Perfect beach location. Could not book direct on their web site, Hotels.com made it easy. They don't have quite the long list of rules sent before check in, thankfully

The posada has comfortable beds and it was very clean. The only problem we had was the wifi because we couldn’t access it from our room. We had to go to the lobby to be able to have a stable connection. It’s a good place to stay if u do not care for the wifi.

Do not recommend…. Cheaper places that are better
The walls had stains on them. The shower water pressure was not strong enough to take sand off our bodies. There was a leak in the bathroom sink. The coffee maxhine & cups were dirty also.

Yes!
This place is fantastic. Right on the beach -- the location can't be beat. The restaurant has the best view in town. The wifi isn't reliable but mostly works. If you need to work from your room, I recommend getting a local sim card and using a hot spot. That's what I did for some zoom meetings. The rooms are cleaned five times a week, and the towels and sheets are changed often -- which was great. The staff is super friendly, as well as the other guests. There could be noise from the bars on the street at night and some mild construction noise during the day. I highly recommend the place!

La posada del arquitecto es el mejor hotel en Mazunte con la mejor vista y a 10 metros del mar. Ahora tiene nuevas habitaciones hasta con aire acondicionado y de todos los tamaños. nunca ha dejado de sorprenderme y siempre es mi primera opción para hospedarme (antes ni se podía reservar por internet). amo ese hotel y amo las vistas, amo el servicio que dan. en verdad es el mejor hotel que pueden reservar.
