Excellent option when staying in Chapala. Our stay was 5 nights long during February Carnaval time (February 24 – March 1, 2017). We chose the room with the window to the street – it was very noisy but we knew what we signed up for and us being completely exhausted by the time we hit the hay, the noise was not an issue with catching Zs. Hotel Villa Samary is a lovely property with rooms back away from the street that I am sure are much quieter. The location is fantastic, around the corner from la plaza and short blocks away from the church/malecon (pier)/picturesque center of Chapala and main roads. Fresh (all organic and locally grown) food is readily available as all is walking distance. The bed was firm and comfy, extra blanket and pillows were stored in the cabinet in the room, water ran hot within a minute or two, the woman who cleaned our room every day after we stepped out did a phenomenal job. The patio area is precious – birds like it too so they gather and do their lovely signing. It is serene and very nice. Only issue we had for the first two days was practically non-existent Wi-Fi. The hotel owner explained the internet company had been out to fix the issue but was still not running. After we did get the signal though wifi was good. The décor in the room can use a bit of improvement but this is not at the top of my list of things that matter when I am out of town enjoying my vacation. Overall, I highly recommend, both Chapala and Hotel Villa Samary. -Paz

Es un hotel pequeño pero acogedor, la señora del lugar es amable, los precios son un poco altos pero vale la pena quedarse ahí, está justo en la plaza principal un buen lugar para salir a caminar desayunar algo en el mercado y después dar un paseo por el malecón. Los recomiendo.
