Central location, close to everything, quiet and safe. Tasteful rooms. Fantastic staff, very welcoming, helpful and competent. Lovely rooftop. A great place to relax and enjoy the historical district. Excellent restaurants close by and a short walk to the beach.

Location in the heart of old Mazatlan was perfect for Carnival 2020. The rooms were modern, clean, and comfortable. Front desk staff were great and always friendly. The rooftop pool is unheated, and the bar was closed during our stay (Feb 2020).

I loved the location and the people were very friendly. We only stayed one night and next year we probably will spend more than one night. We had ZERO dislikes.

A lot of the building was under construction, therefore noisy after 9AM. Pool area bar was not set up. Otherwise, a very nice place with an excellent location near Plaza Machado.

An excellent retro modern hotel. Super clean and great staff. Convenient location to downtown Mazatlan’s tourist attractions.

Location, location, location! The Jonathon is hands-down the best hotel if you're looking for a place that's within reach of everything in Centro Historico. You can walk to the mercado, Olas Altas beach and the malecon, coffee shops and restaurants, and you're almost literally in Plazuela Machado. The staff are super friendly and always available to help. The hotel used to have a rooftop poolside bar a few years ago, but the neighbors complained. So now the rooftop is a quiet oasis to relax in the lap pool or find a sunny spot on a chaise lounge chair.
The downside to the place is that the breakfasts are not what you'd be familiar with in the US or Canada. There's a small fridge atop the bar with "juices" (nectars), an urn of coffee and sugar-laden pastries (one of each type of variety). So if you normally feast on donuts and pastries for breakfast, that's what you'll get here. If you want a substantial breakfast... eggs, toast, bacon, etc... you'll have to venture out to any one of the several breakfast spots closeby.
Also, on Friday and Saturday nights, it can get quite noisy in Plazuela Machado with load music that can play on until 3:00 am. So if you're looking for peace and quiet on the weekend, the location of the Jonathon might not be your best option.
Aside from that, I've stayed there twice and will continue to do so, unless I'm looking for a house-keeping (i.e. kitchen, cooking facilities) unit, in which case I'd opt for something else nearby.
Overall, 4+ stars
