I have been staying at Azteca Inn 2 (to)4 mos. a year for more than 20 years and find that it is far above the rest for service, clean , hospitable, central location and the best mexican breakfast in town (ask any local). I was in the hospital for 7 days in 2006 , The Hotel owners sent someone daily to the hospital to see if there was anything I needed, and my room was exactly as I left it except cleaned and new flowers were waiting for me.
For service attitude, price and effort to please it would be hard to find better than the Azteca at any price. I mentioned that it was getting hard for an old man to get in and out of the Pool, The following November , There were new marble steps and a stainless steel hand rail. Exalant Hotel

Spent 16 days at the Azteca Inn in Mazatlan in Feb-March of 2008. It was just what I had hoped it would be. Simple, very clean accomodations. Staff was beyond helpful. Didn't have a single bad experience in 16 days. There was a woman at the hotel who was raging about the noise, but, hmmm, it seemed quieter than most Mexican hotels I have stayed at. Would return to this hotel anytime. Pool is a bit cool, but refreshing and clean.

We stayed at the Azteca Inn for one night the middle of December and we had two connecting rooms. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, with the exception of the beds which were a little hard but they are pretty much hard everywhere in Mexico. The pool was clean but a little cold in the late afternoon but the jucuzzi was great and relaxing. The front desk person was very helpful and friendly. We didn't eat at the restraunt there but it was pretty full and the food looked good and so were the prices. We did not have any problems with the noise level and slept great. The kids had lots of fun and everything is really close by.

My fiance and I stayed at Azteca the end of March. It was a nice little hotel for the price. Just as everyone is saying. Very close to the beach and many restaurants which made it very convenient. The rooms were clean but nothing special. Yet, what can you expect for around $60 a night! We like to travel on a budget and spend time checking out the city and the beach so the hotel doesn't really matter to us just as long as we have a hot shower and a clean bed! The pool and hot tub were nice. There was an on site bar and restaurant that was also nice. The staff at times wasn't very responsive which to me was the only down side. That and the fact that our room was on the first floor facing the pool and unfortunatly waking up to the pool crew every morning at 6 am was somewhat irriating! Also, our toilet broke and the staff wasn't all that quick to respond to fixing the problem. However, if we ever went back to Mazatlan we would stay here again. You just can't beat the price!
