I always stop at Terco's Politos... the chicken is amazing and who expects mashed potatoes in baja and the decorations are all antiques and artifacts
from the history of Santa Rosalia...very cool.

Thanks for all the replies. As usual, a plethora of advice and interesting tidbits as well. We've sent him on his way armed with all your
suggestions. If we hear back from him, we'll let you know where he stayed and how it went.

Just a note to add to the gringo style thing....apart from all of the above comforts...being surrounded by gringos and gringo hosts is part of my
gringo style criteria.

I was thinking maybe gringo style meant H on the faucet was for hot and C was for cold. Stayed in many hotels in Baja that were the opposite.

Stayed in the El Morro several years ago. My wife and I were setting at the bar and we could see into the kitchen thru a mirror. The waitress would
pick food off the plates as she brought the food out and also take food off them when she was taking the dishes back in. The room was OK. Haven't
stayed anywhere else in the town.

Tercos Politos
They have a great coffee drink...I don't recall the name but it is generally advertised via a triangle ( aka; tee pee) placed on the table.
I some how manage to have one (or more) during every visit to town.
I second the thumbs up for the breakfast.

You know, I've stayed at many mexican hotels over the years, and that's one thing I've always wondered. At first you think it's funny, then you start
to wonder why so many places get it wrong.
Then, you look at it and think "if I only speak Spanish, what would H/C mean to me?". I mean, I know nothing about "hot" and "cold", right? And the
light bulb goes off - "C" stands for Caliente! "H", WTF - at least I have one of them right!
The next question is - why am I so English-centered that I would think that the only perspective on the faucet symbols is ... well, you get my drift.
