Muy bonito lugar, sus vistas son espectaculares, piscina y un amplio patio y comedor, tiene embarcadero dónde te puede recoger un servicio de lancha para realizar un tour por toda la laguna hasta la playa de Chacahua y de regreso, la anfitrióna siempre súper atenta y amable todo el tiempo, incluso nos preparo el desayuno ( a bajo costo) que le solicitamos una noche antes. El precio del hospedaje también muy accesible

Todo muy bien buenas instalaciones, solo le daría una recomendación: darle más mantenimiento y limpieza a la alberca.

Un hotel muy bonito, con vistas hermosas a la laguna. Tiene una terraza con hamacas y bancas para disfrutar tomando algo. Hay también un patio grande donde puedes caminar, sentarte, hacer una carnita asada o alguna comida de tu preferencia. También hay una alberca para disfrutar. En general el hotel es muy bonito y la Sra. Paty, quien es la encargada es un amor de persona. Te inspira ternura y confianza y siempre está atenta a lo que necesitas. Nos sentimos muy apapachado por ella. Lo recomendó al 100000%. No duden ni un segundo en reservar en este hotel. Les juro que no se van a arrepentir.

El encanto de un lugar no tan visitado. Tranquilo, desayuno comida y cena a buen precio y sazón casero, excelente, recalco excelente atención de la señora Pati, en todo momento dispuesta a ayudar a que todo salga mejor. Agrego que el paseo en lancha por las lagunas de chacahua valió mucho la pena, gracias a Daniel mi grupo (65 personas) y yo quedamos a gusto por todo y con todos. Hospedate en hotel Gemelas, vale la pena.

Clean and tidy but at $250 with no air con or TV, it's a little pricey.

Habitaciones sencillas, tuve la mala suerte de encontrar una lagartija muerta dentro de una almohada pero tardamos en encontrarla ya que el olor era muy fuerte a echado a perder, es una buena opción en este pueblito que no hay nada me salvo. Bonito hotel con su alberquita
