Exceptionally friendly service at great location

I cannot recall ever having received such kind, attentive service from hotel staff. Right from arrival through to our departure five days later, all the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful at all times/hours with everything from sightseeing and transportation advice to offering a complimentary umbrella during a rain storm. This exceptional level of service helped make our stay special. Entrance to the hotel was always immediate and a good level of security was evident at all times. The location is excellent (right near the Santa Domingo church) with the zocalo within a five minute walk. There is significant street/bar noise. With windows/blinds closed, the noise is not too intrusive, but on Friday/Saturday night, the pumping bass from a nearby rooftop intrudes until quite late (our room was adjacent to the main entrance on the street). The room was kept spotlessly clean throughout our stay with a comfy bed, great A/C, but the bathrooms are getting a little in need of a reno. The rooftop patio is lovely with great views of the surrounding city. The simple included continental breakfast was basic (bread, pastry, fruits, fruit juice, coffee/tea) but tasty and nicely presented. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hotel and would recommend it.

Standard room is lower in price but subpar. It is located at the top floor through multiple stairs. Room is plain and closer to a 2-3 star hotel. Noise level can be high given bars across the street (very loud on weekends). Continental breakfast is very basic, service is great but the few employees that seem to work overtime. For $200 the location, and bed, clean bathroom is ok. More expensive rooms at the $350 mark merit a better look at other hotels like the Quinta Real. Disappointing.

The stay was not great. The bathroom was smelly and there was no exhaust. They served continental breakfast without eggs and when asked for eggs they charged very high prices. Also there were some conflicts and I asked for the manager/supervisor, the attendant there straight away denied it with utmost rudeness.
