Good value for the price. Friendly staff. Antique elevator was a cool experience. Included breakfast was good food, but limited options for hot beverages and breakfast delivery was quite late twice. They should sell bottled water from the office. They could make a good profit and they would also save on fewer trips with the elevator because guests wouldn’t have to go out just to buy water.

This place is more affordable than anywhere else. It’s very basic. You get what you pay for. There is no stove or microwave available, and they try to ration the toilet paper. Excellent value for those who are willing to walk down the hall to shared bathrooms.

Fair but could be so much better
It’s fair by the price, clean and according to what looks in the photos The place is not exactly private, neither shared completely. A lot of noise because of the families, shared bathrooms, not exactly the best options considering the number of guest

This place is awful and I am EXTREMELY surprise that Expedia supports business like this. I have traveled the world and I understand there are different types of places (prices, starts ratings, locations,etc) and I am a very easy going and flexible person but there are things that I consider basic. I arrived to the hotel and they told me that they didn't have space for me even though I had a paid reservation. They acknowledge that but the only argument they had was: we are sorry but we have sold the room (I guess again). After I insisted, they put me in a place that I can't even consider a room. It was a super small, ugly, humid, dirty place with a small bed and guess what! FULL OF MOSQUITOS. This is just a summary of a horrible experience. Mexico City has lovely affordable places. Please don't choose this one.

I've seen a few reviews with 1/5 ratings... My experience was great. The bed was very comfortable, the staff very helpful and the overall running if the place was good. I saw a few reviews saying about Mexicans living there. When I read the reviews it seemed like they were homeless, but they weren't, so my advice to that is if it upsets you to be around Mexicans... Don't come to Mexico City because you will see a lot of them 😱. The only thing is the shower. They take a long time to heat up, but they are cool (not cold). Anyways, I've had worse! Would I use this hostel again? Damn right I would
