We almost passed up this hotel due to the previous reviews here. Don't miss it, unless you are seeking the standard canned plastic typical American hotel chain experience. The Camino Real boasts countless historic touches including a magnificent Tiffany glass ceilinged bar. The staff were very warm, friendly and helpful with restaurant tips to local places. Yes, a few things are a bit out-dated decor-wise such as the bathroom. But the bathroom worked fine -and was huge. For $100 a night we had an enormous suite style room on the 11th floor, with incredible views of the mountains to the south and west. Acceptable pool, too. The Mexican food in the restaurant was really tasty and you can walk to what is left of the old downtown, including a nice grassy square with historic buildings. We also think $7.00 for parking in a downtown hotel is a perfectly reasonable charge. But if you want free parking and you want to be close to the Walmart and the malls, this is not the place for you.
