Ive stayed at Aloha Sol, Matum, and Colonial and would rate them as the following, considering, location, cleanliness, value, and customer service:

Aloha Sol 2.5 "stars" (paid 1799 pesos for one person first time (after negotiating), 1999 for two second time, with breakfast (tried charging 2500 until I told him I paid 1799 previous time). Has Valet parking. Excellent location - across from Codelpa Central Plaza...so somewhat crowded but very convenient.

Matum 2 "stars" - much nicer rooms, but the front desk person was *REALLY* bad. paid 1850 pesos (as quoted on the phone - front desk tried very hard to charge 2800 pesos...wouldn't budge till we threatened to walk... big parking lot, plus Casino, Chinese restaurant and nightclub on premises...but nowhere really close by for breakfast.

Colonial 1.5 "stars" - The neighborhood and "vibe" there are pretty bad...I stayed in the former "new" section and it was cheap - I think 700 pesos with a/c..but the room was tiny and not very clean, with a very uncomfortable bed... I hear the new "new" section is much nicer. street parking, and a few small local spots for breakfast and a colmado nearby.

all prices include tax
