You get a room key and a second key that unlocks a gated stairway, so the occasional stranger strolling by can’t wander upstairs to any of the rooms.

I especially like the safety features of the hotel. The one black eye is the hovel in a trashy lot next door. Several little businesses fill in the lots around the block, and you have convenience stores and mini markets within a short walk. There is an elementary school a block away, and a youth center with attractive architecture and landscaping sits directly across the street. I love the specific block this hotels sits on. My first room was smaller with a tiny window that gave me almost no view, but on the second visit, I asked for an upper floor with a good view the big window I got had a beautiful mountain view that I woke up to blissfully every sunrise. On both of my stays, I kept the air cool overnight, and neither unit faltered in the slightest. Mexico has a tendency to use wall units instead of HVAC systems to control the air in separate rooms, and Maria Elena is no exception. There were plenty of cable channels, and a handful of them show top American movies and programs in English. The rooms are very simple, and you have only a mini-fridge and a flat screen TV. My room was always fresh and immaculate every afternoon when I came back from lunch. This hideaway stay has rooms decked out with classic tile work, including the bathrooms, and the beds are firm and comfortable. When you buy it with the flight package, this hotel is dirt cheap, but it’s certainly not a low-grade property. I have stayed at Maria Elena twice now, once in 2014, and again this past summer.
