The hotel has a nice atmosphere, with friendly staff and rooms that match the expected quality for the price. However, I did encounter a few issues during my stay. Upon check-in, I accidentally dropped my money pouch containing approximately 300 Mexican pesos inside the elevator. I realized it was missing within two minutes and immediately retraced my steps to the front desk to report it. Unfortunately, no one turned it in. Additionally, I typically receive my invoice via email for billing purposes, but despite requesting it twice, I have yet to receive it. There were also a few maintenance concerns: the room curtains did not close properly, leaving a noticeable gap, and the cable TV was not functioning upon arrival. While the maintenance staff was able to fix the issue, it took about 30 minutes. Despite these setbacks, the hotel is overall acceptable.

I was very tired from the trip from New Orleans, connecting in Cancun, and needed to rest for a moment. The manager didn't want to check me in before 3:00 p.m. He only wanted to store my suitcase. It was a little annoying because I've stayed in other hotels before, and they gave me the opportunity to give me the room earlier because they weren't full.

The elevator works great. The staff that check you in was not friendly and barely acknowledged us. But the car attendant staff was super great! Our room was basic, pretty standard, but the lobby was beautiful. You have to put a room key in a slot in order to turn on the air and the lights. So that way, when you leave have to take your room key, you cannot leave the air or the lights on. That was strange, but it worked out fine!

This property should NOT be advertised as a 4 star hotel, it is not. It's a shame, because the building is historical, the rooms need a remodeling, not enough outlets, the shower is scary. Now, the staff in the parking garage super attentive, as well as the maids, but the guys at the front desk are super rude, specially the young kid working generally at night, I checked in on Friday the 2nd around 8 pm and the young gentleman at the front desk it made it seem like I was inconveniencing him and he could not wait to sit in the corner checking his phone. The next day I needed a taxi in the morning and the second guy at the desk said they may not come in because they're doing work in the side streets, even though there's still access to the hotel, customer service for these two guys is not their thing. I would not go back to this property.

Genuinely loved the hotel and the location. It is directly in front of the main central plaza Zocalo. The rooms are a bit outdated but it’s fine because it is literally a 200 year old hotel. The staff is very accommodating and kind. The lobby is always air conditioned and clean. The cleaning staff is quick and restock everything welll. It is definitely a go back hotel.
