Hip hotel right in the centre of the action

Pros: The design, friendly staff, no one else using the pool and the great food at Azul downstairs.
Cons: Difficult to get fresh air into the room at night without a terrace. The air con was noisy at night - probably because of gorgeous high ceilings.
Location: Plenty! Azul Restaurant was great. Rooftop bar was fantastic at night. Discover the street food close by too!
Thoroughly enjoyed our stayed at the elegant and hip Downtown. Treat yourself to a meal downstairs at the Azul Restaurant. We stayed during the dias de los muertos celebrations and the staff were incredibly helpful in offering ides and tips on how best to enjoy the celebrations.
