The Inn at Pasitiempo
Pros:

Beds were comfortable and rooms were clean. Restaurant was good and we liked being able to walk over to eat.

Cons:

Bar was closed due to a suspension of their alcohol license prior to us getting there. I booked that hotel so we could eat and have a few drinks without worrying to drive anywhere. Lady that checked us in was not very friendly, but we enjoyed our stay anyway.

Room was great. Although the age of the place is telling through the musty smell and outdated pillows throughout.

Cons:

The parking lot is really horrible. We had made reservations at the restaurant in the hotel but they were mysteriously closed down for week.
