No es como en las fotos
Pros:

La ubicación y la terraza.
La comida del restaurante.
Servicio de limpieza.

Cons:

La atención del personal muy lenta y mala.
La comida muy rica pero la atención muy lenta en el restaurante.
La habitación muy sencilla y en el baño tenía un problema de que la cortina de la ducha no llegaba al piso, por lo que se salía el agua y se inundaba todo.
Pedían dejar la llave al salir del hotel, esto me pareció extraño y me hizo sentir insegura

Overall great stay, nice hotel in ideal location.
Pros:

Perfect location - close to everything but not too busy. Beautiful view from the restaurant

Cons:

Our suite was close to the restaurant so there were lights and music until late each night, but it was the holidays and I didn't really have high expectations. Not enough towels - but I like to have extra for my hair or if I want to shower before dinner etc. It would be nice to have bigger floor mats for the bathroom. .

I would definitely stay here again!
Pros:

The room was lovely and spacious. The bed was comfortable. Bathroom functioned well; hot showers and a magnifying mirror by the sink. Staff were uniformly friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The restaurant needs more options for a vegan like me. Especially breakfast. Options like rice and beans, waffles, avocado toast with fresh sourdough bread would be a good idea.

Buena ubicación
Pros:

El hotel está muy bien ubicado, cercano al antiguo templo y convento de Santo Domingo de Guzmán y a tan sólo una cuadra de la calle principal que se llama Macedonio Alcalá. Es un hotel antiguo, de habitación amplia y baño igualmente amplio. Cuenta con Tv con cable, y la habitación que me asignaron contaba con una cafetera y un frigobar, así como aire acondicionado. El internet igualmente de calidad, mi estancia no incluía desayuno. La cama bastante cómoda, aunque una de las lámparas de mesa no funcionaba bien.

Cons:

Creo que el hotel tiene muchas cosas que podría mejorar. Por alguna razón me asignaron una habitación hasta el fondo del hotel, un poco solitario, todo bien, pero eso hacía que el personal de limpieza de habitaciones se olvidará un poco de mi. La puerta de la habitación solo se cierra con una chapa y una llave, se necesita un poco más de seguridad. Por otro lado, a la mitad de mi estancia me quedé sin papel sanitario, fui a pedirlo a recepción y dijeron no tener. Tuve que comprar mi propio papel sanitario porque la mucama se acordó que debía dejar papel sanitario hasta días después de que lo solicité en recepción. Hacen falta más conectores de luz, pues en toda la habitación sólo hay dos y uno daba toques. Sin duda falta una buena modernización del hotel.

Pros:

Muy buena ubicación

Cons:

Demasiado ruidoso, no es posible descansar porque se escucha todo el ruido de los pasillos, de los otros cuartos, inclusive se alcanza a escuchar la televisión y las voces de los otros huéspedes.

We stayed here for a week, very pleasant and perfect location to El Centro. Room was clean.
Pros:

Location, very close to everything downtown (centro). Also, the terrace was nice to get a bite to eat or drink.
