El Tropico is a restaurant located behind a gas station, known for its delicious and generously portioned quesadillas with carne asada, pastor tacos, and Papusas. The tortillas have an authentic taste and the Papusa is a must-try.
Additionally, there is a hotel with spacious and clean rooms, equipped with basic amenities. The hotel offers a nice breakfast buffet with eggs and is highly recommended for those visiting Monticello.
The staff is friendly and helpful, and the hotel is a great 3-star option for a few nights stay. The hotel has a decent pool and an older hot tub, and the continental breakfast includes a hot waffle machine. Overall, El Tropico provides great value for its price, with clean and safe facilities, and meets basic needs exceedingly well.
