El lugar está muy bonito, las habitaciones son muy cómodas y están limpias, algunos detalles de mantenimiento no graves pero se nota que siguen trabajando en eso, y el hotel está en la av. Principal y está el acuario de Mazatlán a una cuadra de ahí. Hay tiendas cerca y muchos lugares donde comprar comida. Lo recomiendo en verdad.

Es bastante bonito y sencillo, tiene disponibilidad de habitaciones de todo tipo, individuales, dobles, hasta cuádruples. Te atienden bastante rápido y las instalaciones son adecuadas. La piscina sirve para pasar un buen rato y disfrutar del ambiente, lo mejor de todo es que está super cerca de la playa. Así que es una buena opción para hospedarse. Por último, creo que el precio es bastante decente.

*Hotel Acuario*. Económico. 04/Feb/2018 habitaciones desde $550.00 pesos MXN por día (de 12 a 12, o sea, 24 hrs). Tiene muy buena vista al Mar y a un lado del Malecón. Una alberca de buen tamaño y limpia. No tiene restaurantes, ni servicio a la habitación. Pero hay cerca unos Oxxos, unas pizzerías, varios restaurantes, varias arquerías y muy cerca "el Acuario Municipal" (hasta te puedes ir a pie)... Tiene buenos precios, algo de las instalaciones están un poco gastadas u oxidadas, como el metal de los aparatos de aire acondicionado, las aspas de los abanicos y etc. Si no eres muy exigente, es buen hotel... Yo solo lo uso para quedarme, bañarme y dormir y todo el día ando recorriendo Mazatlán... Algunas veces como otros han opinado, no está 110% limpio y pulcro como los hoteles caros... Pero cumple al 100% como en casa particular propia, que uno no es así. Si estas impuesto a hoteles de calidad media o superior (3 a 5 estrellas) no vayas a este.
