Posada La Roca

Sonora


A labyrinthine stone structure (built in 1927), this Old Port inn was once a casino-hotel-brothel for US mobsters, including, by all accounts, Al Capone, during Prohibition. The 20 rooms are simple and clean but in serious need of an update. The common area with its cozy couches provides a pleasant alternative. A decent option if you're on a tight budget.
