¿Hable inglés?

My first mission would be to find someone that spoke English at the hotel. My new girl friend had left me behind and promised to meet me later to show me around. It was very hard to completely understand what she was telling me,but with a little effort all was well. We said goodbye for now At the reseption desk i was greeted with "good afternoon, do you have a reservation?" I was relieved. I was shown my room as as i was saying before it was quite a disappointment considering the price.the room was very clean and everything worked just fine.
64 a night ? My dollar wasn't going as far as i thought. there are 3 restaurants near by and you could smell the food cooking from the hotel room. Yummy!! Hotel Gandara has a very nice restaurant ,however as i was saying about your dollar. Later I'll show you how you can fill up with great food for under 10 dollars a day.

Hotel Gandara

Hotel Gandara at that time was about $64.00usd per night. the reason i would rate it a simple 2 is because,for the price it offered nothing extra. I stayed there just long enough to find a better bargain and i did.
The are many Hotels in Hermosillo. If you take the time you can find them comparable for as little as $25usd a night. the one i found for that price was safe and clean and the staff was helpful.
I imagine the the reason Hotel Gandara cost a lot more is because they do offer a heated pool. As do many of the more costly hotels there. If you need more information about hotels there and how to find them, please send me a note. Restaurants,hotels ,shopping and entertainment. Transportation? i can help you get anywhere you want to go there. Next Central Hermosillo. A great place to visit
Tip. Before you get into a taxi there ask how much. Taxis are not metered. you can bargain if you know how.

Oops,i dont speak any spanish.

While i waited in the airport in Hermosillo I was very nervous.Reality set in,i don't speak Spanish. I went to Hermosillo for 2 reason, the first was to meet a new friend and the second? well my daughters thought I could help them with their new clothing line by finding someone there to make samples.I always believed that in Mexico you can find people will to help you with most anything. 10 minutes went by and there was my new friend. Tagging along was her daughter of 21 years old. we greeted each other and i started outside to find a taxi. FYI  if you don't already know. there are booths inside the airport where you must buy a ticket and then proceed outside for the taxi service. this ticket will cost about 15 dollars..Next stop. Hotel Gandara.Later in my story I'll tell you why I gave it 2 stars.

LAX to Hermosillo,Sonora

May 2007 I left the US bound for Hermosillo. The previous few months i had joined a dating site and met what was to be my companion and soon to be Fiance. The afternoon my plane landed i claimed my baggage and proceeded threw Mexican Immigration. While flying i was giving a card to fill out. this care dis to give immigration information on why your visiting Mexico. My card was stamped and i was granted a 10 day visa according to my travel plans. My return trip was in 10 days and my card was stamped and would expire in 10 days. Next my bags were of course searched for contraband. I then processed out to the waiting area to look for my new friend.
