Hotel Details

Location

A 7-minute walk from Zócalo Square and 800 metres from the Metropolitan Cathedral, in the heart of the historic centre.

Benito Juarez International Airport is 10 km away. The Museum of Fine Arts is 1 km from the property, Tenochtitlan Ceremonial Center is a 12-minute walk, and the Angel of Independence is 4 km away. Multiple restaurants are within 0.5 km, including Azul Historico (0.5 km), El Charco de Las Ranas (0.5 km), and Costillas el Sitio (0.5 km). The area has a metro station nearby for easy city exploration. The immediate surroundings can feel quiet at night as many businesses close, but the central location remains a top strength for access to main sights.

Accommodation

Adults-only hostel offering rooms with private or shared bathrooms, featuring free toiletries, TV, and fan.

Room options include private suites with private bathrooms and dormitories with shared bathroom access. All rooms are equipped with a fan, essential for ventilation as there is no central air conditioning. Rooms facing the street can be noisy due to traffic and sirens. Interior rooms are typically quieter. Bunk beds in dormitories can be unstable and top bunks lack ladders. Some rooms have windows, but not all - this can affect air quality. Towels and sheets are provided. Lockers are available in dormitories but bring your own lock.

The kitchen is equipped with a microwave and basic utensils but lacks items like larger bowls, dish soap, and a kettle. Vending machines for drinks and snacks are on site. The surrounding area offers many dining options within a short walk, including Mexican, international, and casual eateries.

Free billiards table and a shared lounge/TV area provide indoor recreation.

Leisure facilities are limited to a free billiards table and a shared lounge area with TV. There is no swimming pool, spa, or fitness centre.
