As a Google Local Guide, I know to verify a hotel room or short-term rental in person before payment. What I found? A disgusting, moldy room, nothing like the online photos. The kitchen was unsanitary. Then came the cancellation nightmare – hours of calls, transfers, and zero resolution. I've posted photos and videos on their Google Maps profile. Save yourself the trouble and book elsewhere. And seriously, think twice before using the booking platform. #zihuatanejo #travelreview #badhotel #traveltips ##### Roberto Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Annie Jun 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Luis was excellent. 2 minutes walk to playa la ropa.
