First choice if you like to be staying in downtown Cuautla, Morelos, close to everything​, not expensive, there is a coffee shop right next to it, 2 pools one for the kids, bothe small, but clean and functional, right behind historical places, there's an old train station, quite some bars on the same street. Good choice for the price.
