Its a great location in downtown, the área is safe, hotel is ok
Good rooms, with the necessary to have a goos night but not luxury
Right off main square. Can be noisy with all the street vendors selling everything outside. Lovely view on balcony at breakfast
Very worth it for the price. It often has hot water and wifi, though never both at the same time it seems. However, the location is amazing (literally across the street from the National Palace) and the service is wonderful. The folks at the front desk were helpful, friendly and all speak English. Clean(ish) and basic, but excellent for location and price.
Nice rooms if your not gonna be there most of the time great staff.
I love the service of breakfast and every thing was cool no problem THANKS HOTEL AMIGO
Only complaint for me was water not hot enough, it was just warm. Everything else was great. Free breakfast with a view on top floor. Great service staff. Near everything, and the metro. And most importantly for me, really fast internet. Great deal for the price.
The perfect hotel in the middle of the downtown Mexico City. Great area with lots of beautiful tourists locations and restaurants. Great hotel with WiFi and perfect size rooms for a night or 2.
It was a comfortable stay. They were accommodating to 2 extra family members that tagged along with us. The breakfast was delicious. The only thing I didn't like was that we had leave our room key every time we left the building.
The location is perfect if you want visit the center.
Bustling city center around Zócalo plaza, with iconic buildings, street food & upscale restaurants.
Curated spots travelers usually pair with a stay in Mexico City. Distances are rough real-world times, not straight-line.
