The bus station from the airport only goes to the one on 5th avenue going back to the airport it's the one very close. The room was ok but only air conditioning in the bedroom if you have the suite. Our tv had to be changed as it didn't work. The pressure in the shower ok for Mexico but not great we had hot water. Didn't see any bugs... getting in the elevator is like walking in to an oven. Overall it was ok. Location good as it's quiet.

We stay here frequently as it is beside the bus depot (alterna). Rooms are big. There is acoffee maker and pack of coffee in room but no water, creamer, or sugar. The shower head has at least half the holes blocked and this is common in México. The a/c is mounted over the bed so the cold air falls rapidly onto your feet. Your upper body will be comfortable, but your feet will be freezing. Best take a blanket for them. Coffee in the lobby in the am. Fresh squeezed orange and grapefruit juice on the corner in front. Othe corner towards the squarehas good tacos. Try the taco's camarones.
