Great hosts, lovely spacious rooms and awesome whirlpool spa bath with radio and coloured lights. Comfortable bed so had a good night's sleep. It was a pity I had to enjoy it on my own as my partner couldn't come with me at the last moment. More

I stayed at the Acapulco for 1 night on business in Nov 2011. The motel was close to the town centre and well priced for a large 1 bedroom. Free wifi and nice cooked breakfast. Leaky shower door which was fixed by the manager. No other issues. More
