Zipolite, San Pedro Pochutla hotel rooms at the Independent

"This was a great place to call home. It felt very welcoming, staff was really nice, helpful and friendly. The pool and deck area are a gem. Breakfasts were hearty and different every day. Great towels for beach and pool. Only complaint was that they shocked the pool during daytime hours which closed it (should be done at night) and rooms could use some decor on walls."

"Great manager, nice pool and deck; good air conditioning and refrigerator in room. Clean inside and out and very friendly staff. Plastic furniture in room was 3 stools and small round table; no dresser or stand for suitcase. Taxi and food delivery was great. Provided drinking water which I really appreciated. 3 of my 14 nights had loud parties on deck outside my room; I had to approach them, as staff and owners ignored the uproar. "
