A 25 minutos del centro de Zitácuaro. Una vez en el hotel, te olvidas de todo el exterior. Son muy amables y puedes hacer uso de todas las instalaciones. La señal de internet es baja. Te prestan trastes para cocinar, refrigerador, estufa, microondas, hay agua del garrafón, cafetera, café, azúcar, terrazas y asadores. La carga de leña cuesta $90.
