### Quality Inn Acapulco Taupo

10/10 Excellent

"Truly, for the cost this is an unbeatable place to stay. The staff all were lovely and helpful, the space I had (king studio with whirlpool) was spacious and had everything needed for a long stay! It may be dated in a few ways but you have everything you need including a kitchenette with a stove, milk for coffee, a refrigerator, space for eating, luggage storage space, large bathrooms and a cute yard in the back. For staying 3 days it was perfect. I loved adding in the breakfast buffet and the staff worked hard to keep food out and tables clean. I am a bit noise sensitive and the only item I had trouble with was noise from the windows in the AM, the rooms themselves are noise protected. Great stay & staff! "
