First of all, I’d like to mention that the staff were very kind. The location of the hotel was also perfect for us. So, we checked in on June 21st with a reservation until the 28th, but after the first night there we had to change our plans. We were fine without a tv in the room, with a leaky ceiling, no a/c, and even with the ants crawling around the bathroom. What we could not endure were the mattresses and pillows that were provided. That first night we didn’t sleep more 30 minutes at a time and the mattress was so hard and noisy that we considered sleeping on the floor. The pillows were of no use and had stains on them. Our sleep is important to us when we travel as we enjoy having jam-packed days, but after that first night we were more exhausted due to the lack of rest. First thing the next morning we made other plans with a hotel one block away, Hotel Catedral, which we highly recommend! Unfortunately we lost out on the money from our reservation at this hotel and although the staff were great, all they could do was offer an air mattress. We checked out Sunday, June 23rd around 2pm.

The property is on a quiet street among busy downtown. The rooms can get very hot during the day but there are fans. The staff on site speak very little English, not a negative, just FYI. We did not have house keeping everyday - only once during our 5 nights there. Not sure what the cleaning schedule is for them.

Not for me
Good location but extremely hard to find. The attendant at the “reception” did not “speak my language”. The “hotel” was not really a hotel, it was more like a hostel with private rooms. Breakfast was offered but the kitchen area was so small that it made it almost impossible to get anything. Silver member reward of complimentary wine not offered. Small communal water dispenser available but not free bottled water as advertised. And no hot water for showering. Pictures look way better than the in person feel. Next time I visit Mexico City I will spend the extra money to stay anywhere else.

This isn't a hotel it's a hostel. I arrived late at night in a v. dodgy area - the taxi driver was reluctant to go there. Rooms were old and shabby and cold with a broken fridge and no filtered water and no one to call. There was no phone, TV or any other amenity. There seemed to be no management - there were two young guys sleeping in a closet under the stairs who were trying to make the best of it but there were literally no other staff there. I spent two hours on the phone with expedia until 3am trying to change hotels. As it happened I checked out after the first night as I didn't feel safe or valued. VIP access?! come on, Expedia! A week later, I have still had no resolution from expedia.

only one night table, only one plug, they do not provide soap or hand towel, we asked for shampoo for the cay and they gave us some in a plastic cup 😖😖😖, we asked for extra towels and they gave them to us in a very rude manner as well as toilet paper 🙁, after the poor breakfast the guest has to wash the dishes 😳😳😳, in conclusion it is a hostel advertised as a hotel, they do not have a front desk, they never cleaned our bathroom or the floor, unfortunately the places that regularly We booked, they were busy due to the holidays, we couldn't cancel because they didn't want to return the money due to Expedia policies, this place is not recommended at all.

We arrived by taxi and our driver said, "Are you sure this is the right place? It's not a good area to stay in at night." Around us were many homeless people, businesses barred up and an overall uneasy feeling. We were in contact with the property and the emails were kind and helpful. However, when we arrived we were met by a man who didn't speak English and showed us to our rooms. They were basic. Cheap beds that wobbled, a bathroom that was out in the open and provided zero privacy and right out in the open courtyard. After the first night, we decided to find another hotel. For the backpacker or hostel kids, this might be a great spot. It was seriously inexpensive and that in fairness should have been a warning. Another thing that was not professional was the fact that when I went to get additional pillows I only saw one guy playing video games on his phone, so I went to the "staff room" and knocked. There were three people sitting on a mattress also playing video games on their phone. I asked for an additional pillow for our four guests and was initially told no. Not the end of the world, but still the vibe was not professional. We ended up not using the other two days we booked. Advice for the hotel would be to actually have a professional staff onsite who sound and act like the person who was corresponding with us online.

Muy básico
Excelente ubicación. El edificio tiene 3 pisos, no hay elevador. Habitación con lo básico, limpia, amplia. Tiene un mini clóset perfecto para colgar 6 prendas, con 4 repisas. La mesita sirve de portaequipaje para las maletas que se abren en 2. Tiene un pequeño refrigerador. El área de la regadera es muy amplia, la regadera y WC nuevos y modernos. Ofrece desayuno como cortesía: huevos con jamón, pan, fruta, yogur, waffles, gelatina, café, té. Tiene estufa y utensilios que se pueden utilizar para calentar la comida. Sugiero a la administración del hotel que pongan otro buró pues solo tiene uno. Y poner en el baño una repisa.

The hotel is great! Clean, friendly, and well stocked with snacks! The street it is located on is quiet, near many great street food vendors, and safe. But, because it’s in the city center the area directly to the south is quite unsafe and I would not recommend for families.
