It was a nice hotel, I felt very safe as I am a female traveling alone. The area was very busy during the day but quiet at night. Lots of policemen/women at all times. Only thing I didn’t like was that the bed was super hard and it made it difficult to get a good night’s rest. Mattress are hard as rocks. But other than that it was a good place to stay.

Excellent location, walkable area, very close to El Zócalo. It's a commercial area, the hotel is surrounded by a variety of local businesses and commercial premises. The entrance is a little hidden, it was a little hard to find at the beginning but the staff of the hotel is very friendly and we had no problem with the check in.
