That's English. Any hotel charging $200 or more per night should be able to manage this easily, just as they do in any other country. There are plenty of English language schools and training programs in any sizable Mexican city, including Zacatecas. It's a recruiting failure or an uncaring attitude by management that leads to this problem.
