I found this hotel through internet, looking for a place to sleep for me and my two teenager daughters near the beautiful Valle de las Piedras Encimadas (the "Piled Stones" Valley), in the state of Puebla.|The Hotel Hacienda Casa Grande is five blocks away from Zacatlan main square and three from the factory where most of Mexico's public clocks are made. The Centenario factory, created in 1919, is open for public visits and has a little museum.|When I was told by phone that the rate would be 468 pesos (40 dollars) for a triple room I did not expect much, because I was just looking for a good place to sleep, but I was gladly surprised when I saw the hotel.
