The hotel is breathtaking, so very beautiful and the gardens are simply gorgeous, one note, the power outlets in my room were very old, and the plugs wouldn't stay in place, some of them were also pretty loose.

Great place to enjoy Mexican colonial style. Food is very good and rooms comfortable. Many restaurants, mall and El Angel are in walking distance. Our first stay was in 1977, definitely we will stay again. We thank the staff for 5 stars service.

Hotel's in a great location. Room was decent, but the carpet was very filthy. AC stops after midnight, raising the temperature a lot. Few light sources in the room. WiFi is super spotty; travelers shouldn't be relying on it. Breakfast doesn't have any vegetarian options. However, the staff are very kind and made us toasts and plates of fruits.

Room cleaning and bellboy service were excellent! Unfortunately this once beauty has degraded to a point where it needs a makeover. Old uncomfortable beds, worn filthy carpets broken tiles and bathroom where sewer smell is so strong. No a/c or heat but they do provide a small tower unit. Location is fantastic and with a little investment, this could be a 1st class place

This hotel is affordable and conveniently located. The rooms are basic but comfortable. The shower took a long time to heat up. The Front desk staff did not speak English, and check in was confusing due to extra deposit. Otherwise staff were polite and did their best. The breakfast at the restaurant on site was basic but plentiful, but the rest of the menu needs improvement. It is a good choice for those with a limited budget, but those who can afford more might be happier with another option.
