Great location in the heart of central. Easy walking to the cathedral and many great restaurants. This is a value-oriented establishment with minimal amenities. Nice breakfast buffet. Very friendly and accommodating staff. They are currently renovating many of the rooms.
Super friendly staff! The room was clean and comfy and the building was really unique. Perfect location…walkable to several museums. I will definitely be back. and maybe I’ll get around to making it to breakfast next time
Clean, spacious room. Comfortable bed. Very quiet at night. Many cafes, restaurants, stores, museums, etc. within walking distance. Excellent location. I stayed here for nine days, and would definitely return in future!

The room was more than adequate. Wished for brighter lighting. Noise from adjacent rooms was an issue at times. Staff was friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the location.
The hotel is in the perfect location to explore the historical zone. The complimentary breakfast was very tasty and filling. All the staff are so friendly which really makes a stay a nice one. I really liked the variety of zones to sit in outside the bedrooms and my room offered plenty of space, it was clean and the area is quiet to sleep in at night. I would definitely stay there again.
The staff were very helpful and friendly. The location is excellent for exploring on foot. We were surprised at the amount of variety offered in the breakfast.
Very cortéis staff , big clean rooms , affordable, quiet area , spacious común areas , free breakfast
Recommendations security needs to be improved

Liked: Cleanliness
Very central, within walking to the Zocalo and All kinds of places to go. Staff very friendly and helpful. Great value and very affordable. It will be better if it had a TV But the Mgr. Luz said they are working on it. Once they get tvs, it would be excellent. It has a decent Workout room.

The staff was the most friendly! Thank you for keeping our room clean and for cooking breakfast every morning! The hotel is only 2 minutes away from el Zocalo and centro. Convenient location and beautiful hotel. We plan on coming back again!
Everything about this hotel was perfect. My husband and I loved our stay. It’s very walkable, the staff is extremely helpful. Vaina and Mauricio helped navigate us especially during the busy Día de los Muertos days. The rooms were very clean every day, they provide a very fresh and tasty breakfast, the hotel its self is beautiful and is in a historic building.
