Paid almost $1400 for 3 nights with no breakfast- this place isn’t worth it!!!
Pros:

Central location in a historic neighborhood. Beautiful interior design and a rooftop views.

Cons:

It’s not 5 star hotel. The room has many issues- like broken coffee machine, toilet that won’t flush anything, pillows that are uncomfortable. Gym is extremely hot and they won’t turn on AC unless you ask them and after that it takes time to cool it down.

Awesome hotel!
Pros:

We loved our stay at this breathtaking hotel. After months of seeing pictures online, it was so amazing to actually take it in in person. Our room was conformable and we loved the high ceiling and the terrace restaurant was super solid. Best of all was the super helpful, friendly staff who went the extra mile for us over and over. Thank you Yael and Sarai!!

Brilliant
Pros:

Hotel was wonderful, staff were amazing and always willing to help sort any problem for us. View over the Zocalo was brilliant. The location of the Hotel made for easy access to the main tourist sites. The building was always peaceful and calm, such a wonderful place, and nothing stuffy about it either. Breakfast was plentiful in volume and variety.

Cons:

The wait staff in the dining room were a curious mix - mostly friendly and helpful but some with a rather poor attitude. (The views were great however)

Excellent location and even better staff. I will stay here again when visiting CDMX;
Pros:

The location can not be beat - perfect for our FIFA week (and watch party at the Zocalo). Staff were wonderful and extremely helpful - in particular, Cynthia, Andrea and Emmanuel were exceptional. It was also a plus to have a cash machine in the hotel (for pesos) and a taxi driver where we felt comfortable with the drivers. I don't speak spanish and always felt safe and well taken care of.

Cons:

The room could be cold at night - yes, they had a heater but one of us was cold and the other hot. Having extra blankets would have been a plus.
