This hotel (mini apartments) is located in the downtown area near the beach and mountains. No doubt you would get your money's worth, but the bad thing is that you may start loosing your belongings and things start to dissapear so you better watch your items and make sure you lock them up in your suit case before leaving for...

We stayed at Estancia San Carlos from Jan 1st until March 26, 2011, and really ejoyed it. The rooms were kept very clean, daily maid service. The staff was excellent, from the Manager Francisco, front desk Yesina and Leino, Oswaldo who could fix anything and give you a helping hand when you needed it. The ladies (Marta, Elena and Marie...

I lived in a two bedroom apartmnet at the San Carlos for the month of February, 2011 and enjoyed my stay. I loved the location. It is near the river, ocean, markets, restaurants, clubs, etc that I visited just about daily. Yesenia and her staff were very courteous and helpful. I had a couple of minor plumbing problems that they... More

I stayed at this hotel for four days in October. All of my new clothes were stolen. At first everyone denied it, then the staff blamed each other and then there was talk of repaying me, which of course would be impossible. I was never able to talk to the owner. This was a very costly and disappointing stay,and it... More

But they are improving..some units now have microwaves, some have toasters ( we didn't) some get a... More

I made a reservation in advance, over the phone, at this hotel starting on a Saturday, for three nights. I was told the rate was x amount per night. When we arrived at the hotel, the manager asked us if we had a reservation and at what rate. We told them, and without even asking our name or checking, he... More

We have stayed at the Estancia San Carlos twice now, for two weeks in 2006, and came back in 2007 to stay six weeks. We loved the location, the staff, everyone was very helpful and friendly...and the price is right. We have two little Chihuahuas, and they were made to feel very welcome. The maids are hard workers, and they... More

San Carlos fits the bill perfectly. This is definitely not the Ritz Carlton, but honestly who wants those old fuddy, duddies? I go to Mexico to be... More

We stayed at this hotel in August 2006, on the recommendation of the Rough Guide to Mexico. We were wary following the initial approach of the front-desk staff which was surly to say the least and they demanded payment in cash upfront. On the second day of our stay, there was very a problem with the power meaning very little... More
