The location is the BEST! it is walkable to the main places in la Zona Colonial. It is affordable, easy to check in and check out. I recommended for thoes who just want to leave your bags and walk and be out all day. It a simple hotel, to check in and check out. Its not the best for resting and having a comfortable silent evening.

The location is the main attraction, for sure! You'll be within walking distance to some of the city's most iconic places. Depending on the room you get and its location in the building, your mornings could be very noisy or tolerable due to traffic outside.
