It was a nice hotel, I felt very safe as I am a female traveling alone. The area was very busy during the day but quiet at night. Lots of policemen/women at all times. Only thing I didn’t like was that the bed was super hard and it made it difficult to get a good night’s rest. Mattress are hard as rocks. But other than that it was a good place to stay.

Excellent location, walkable area, very close to El Zócalo. It's a commercial area, the hotel is surrounded by a variety of local businesses and commercial premises. The entrance is a little hidden, it was a little hard to find at the beginning but the staff of the hotel is very friendly and we had no problem with the check in.

I am giving 5 stars because the property staff were very kind and helpful there was a Lady at the front desk her name was Laura she helped me a lot God bless her !! And about the hotel NO AC I had to open the windows and use the fan even though I felt like a melted cheese ahaha but is a quiet place after 7:pm which is good and easy to take walks BTW you can take a walk to El Zocalo and enjoy the food and some shopping in there. Is just about 10 minutes walking from Hotel Templo Mayor.
