Everyone was welcoming and ready to help. The food was fantastic and it’s close to everything. Metro a few minutes away, close to sightseeing tours and, being a history buff, I walked past Templo Mayor every day! I will definitely stay there on my next visit

Spent 3 days in hospital after eating here!!!
It’s a good place to meet other travellers if you are travelling solo. However after my stay here I got really bad food poisoning and ended up in hospital. I’ve never been so sick. I wouldn’t advise eating here and besides the social aspect this place does not have a lot to offer unless you like having everything organised and ready for you. In most cases it’s cheaper just to do it yourself than a tour.

What a great team/staff! Very helpful, friendly & professional. This was my first time staying at hostel. We stayed in a private room with was large & clean. Food & cocktails were delicious. Common area did stay pretty loud until after midnight. Also, our front door did lock but did not close completely which allowed for more noise to come in. Thank you to the team for a great stay.

This is a beautiful and historic property just steps away from Mexico's most historic sites. Caution should be used when navigating outside the hostel (esp after dark) but hostel itself is extremely safe and a wonderful place.
