Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers clean, comfortable rooms at a good value, ideal for our needs. The big bed was a plus, and the cleanliness was impressive. However, the lack of air conditioning made the room slightly warm for sleeping.
My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The location was perfect, just a few blocks from the Zocalo, ideal for exploring the historical center, but the lack of air conditioning in the rooms made it unbearably hot. The single room, though clean, felt smaller than expected and not as described during booking.
The hotel is conveniently located, within walking distance to the main attractions. The rooms were spacious but a bit dark due to facing the inner patio, affecting brightness and privacy. The service was very helpful and patient despite the language barrier. The dining options were satisfactory although limited. The hotel's facilities were decent, offering a good value for money.
