    They dident find our booking for 4 doble rooms in the computer, but they offered us 2 bedrooms for 6 people each for the same price. So we had lots of space and spent a good two nights there.

    A very nice place! Great location, clean rooms and bathroms. Our room was big and we liked it very much, everything inside the hostel look new and very nice. Free internet, available all the time. Good breakfast. It was really worth visiting and its price.

    Dina and the staff are great; and even though this is a large and very busy hostel; it is kept very clean. I found the breakfast to be very good; scrambled eggs and ham, toast, mixed fruits, juice, coffee, and tea. Made my first stay in Mexico City very enjoyable

    The hostel is located in not the safest area in town. It´s very close to El Zocalo and if there is some kind of event happening there, they will close all the surrounding streets and no taxi will be able to bring you close (We had that problem). I think that next time I´d rather sty close to... more

    Very good hostel located in the center of the city. When you first enter it, you would rather think it's a hotel and not hostel. Lots of tourist offers and information can be found inside. It wasn't noisy at all but it may depend on the room. It is very popular so if you like communication one...
