Queen beds are small compared to the queen beds in the states but still very comfortable. Staff was very accommodating and respectful. Traveling with a baby and the hotel was great about this . They helped to secure safe transportation as well as gave us helpful tips to get our moneys worth when going out. The breakfast was perfect for travelers with babies and the baby seat had wheels allowing us to serve our plates with baby next to us. Staff was AMAZING and it is very clear they all love babies through their accommodations and attitude towards the family . Shoutout to the lovely redhead who works in the kitchen going above and beyond once she saw me struggle with the baby!!!

Property was cleaned all the time. We had everyday housekeeping and complementary water and coffee in our room. Daily breakfast was so delicious and front desk was also very helpful all the time. There a convenient store like 7-Eleven but it’s called OXXO in front of the hotel, a pharmacy next to the hotel and two restaurants. Also the hotel has a restaurant inside opens at 12:30pm and closes at 10:30pm. Very delicious and affordable food. I really like this hotel even though the area around it it’s a little sketchy but overall great for families.

The rooms are large, with lots of outlets, tv, ac, comfortable beds, clean hotel, delicious breakfast. Complimentary ride to the Basilica of Guadalupe and Benito Juarez International Airport, just tip the driver who is very polite and gets you safe to your destination. I recommend this hotel if you want to see the basilica and if you want to feel safe in Mexico City.

it was an amazing stay but wish if there were no language barrier when coordinating with the staff. The transportation crew was so friendly and the only issue was the communication skills with English language. I will definitely choose this hotel next time and great if those two issues were addressed to meet our expectations.

Our room for a family of 4 was generous. We had 2 queen beds in room 313 for 3 nights. Fresh towels and daily room service. Breakfast was awesome, some USA needs like mini pancakes and cereal. Make your own chilaquiles was a major hit. Tortilla chips, red or green sauce, scrambled eggs, refried beans, Mexican (kind of like sour) cream & cheese. 1 miss not enough surfaces for 4 carryon suitcases. Getting the correct lane from a right turn from westbound Calzada de Norte to northbound Calzada de Guadalupe is a big trick. It may be best to make a left turn south, make a U-turn, and stay 2nd from left lane.
