Mexico City Hostel

I stayed 4 nights at this hostel in November 2006. I asked for a private room, and I got a rooom with 4 beds on the 1st floor with lockers and a small balcony. Room was clean but not cleaned during my stay there. Hotel provides towels, decent breakfast, has internet, and of course gives you a chance to meet other travellers. Does not really have a common room, but it has a small TV area where people hang out.

Unique Quality: Staff is the hostel's quality number 1. Those girls were amazingly friendly and very helpful. All of them spoke english and made effort to answer all my questions.

Other than that, location is pretty good, close to Zocalo, but not the best. If I go to Mexico City again, I would stay closer to Alameda as this area is more lively at night.

Rate includes breakfast which is ok. Hotel provides internet at the price of US$1 per hour which is kind of an average for Mexico. Hostel is generally very clean but my room was not cleaned once while I was there.

Bad - exchange rate is only 10 pesos for a US$1 so money should be changes elsewhere.

I paid US$18 for a private room including breakfast and shared bath.

Directions: Close to Zocalo
