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.

The room was simple and small but met our needs perfectly. It was kept very clean, and the big bed was comfortable. We rented a similar room on AirBnB earlier for the same price, which was a great value.

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.
Rooms
6.0
The room was absolutely hot without AC, but it was clean with a large bed. However, it felt smaller than expected and did not match the exact room I booked.
Service
7.0
The staff were helpful in arranging taxis for our early arrival at 5:30 am, but communication was a challenge as some staff members did not speak basic English. Housekeeping was attentive, but noise levels made it hard to sleep.
Location
8.0
The hotel's location was fantastic, close to the Zocalo and surrounded by bustling local activity during the day. However, everything closed early around 6 pm, limiting evening options.
Dining
5.0
Unfortunately, there was no restaurant or breakfast options available on-site, forcing us to venture out for every meal. This was inconvenient as everything closed early in the area.
Facilities
The hotel lacked additional facilities such as restaurants or shops, making it necessary to explore the surrounding area for dining and shopping options.

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.
