We were very happy with our choice of Domenico.
Pros:

Cheats and towels were quite nice! Really good water pressure and temperature controls. Everything was clean, in good condition, and well-appointed.

Cons:

I would like to see the rooms decorated with something on the walls! There were a couple of those tin hearts on the wall above the beds, but nothing else. This makes for a boring room.

I am so glad I stayed there and would do it again.
Pros:

Beautiful, traditional, historic. Perfect location. Spotlessly clean. Very comfortable room with tons of storage space.

Cons:

Staff ranged from aloof to downright rude. Some of it was language discomfort, I am sure, but it was a low point, especially in a city where everyone else was so gracious and helpful and did not let language issues get in the way at all. Second was the noise level. Some of that is just Mexico and the insane traffic, but there was a blastingly loud roar all day long outside my room.. The windows were excellent, so most of it was blocked enough to tolerate it, but I couldn't use the lovely patio or have the nice breeze in the room. I'm guessing it was the ventahood from the attached restaurant, as it stopped at night, but it marred the experience greatly.

Schlechtestes Hotel auf unserer 4wöchigem Mexiko Reise
Pros:

Das Hotel lag zentral und es gab kostenfreies Trinkwasser.

Cons:

Wir hatten ein Zimmer mit Terrasse, aber dort saß man wie in einem Kaminschacht. Das Internet war im Zimmer schlecht. Mit dem Fön kann man Babyhaare fönen, aber keine normalen Haare. Im Bad roch es nach Fäkalien. Es war extrem hellhörig und man hat jedes Wort und Getrampel der anderen Hotelgäste gehört. Die Mitarbeiter an der Rezeption waren immer nur mit ihrem Handy beschäftigt. Die Zimmerausstattung war in die Jahre gekommen. Sehr schlechtes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis!

No way should this hotel have a 8.8 rating from Bookings
Pros:

Comfortable bed

Cons:

Multiple steps in bedroom to and from bathroom and into room. Dangerous at night. Staff not helpful and some rude. One night construction outside banging. Books wrote me a note that breakfast included and the hotel said thus is not so and charged us for breakfast.

Clean, quiet, and comfortable for a quick stay.
Pros:

Central location, calm in the city centre, outdoor spaces

Cons:

The only problem is the drains, but we covered both of them and kept the bathroom door closed to eliminate the smell at night.
