Included secured parking and a delicious buffet breakfast on the beautiful terrace. They do not have an elevator, so prepare to climb 3 flights of stairs where the dining area is located. Great stay and service!

Engaging staff. Very clean. Beautiful rooftop patio.
But, lots of street vehicle noise and one front desk staffer that tried to charge me for a dirty towel. He also arranged a taxi that I think he profited from.

Great location, room, staff, and breakfast
Great location just a 10 minute walk to the Zocolo, a couple of blocks from Benito Juarez and 20 de Noviembre markets. Great freshly made breakfast daily, very tasty. Staff are all outstanding—incredibly friendly and helpful.
