“In my opinion, the best feature of this budget hotel is its location in Mexico City. However, potential guests should be aware that some aspects, such as cleanliness and room upkeep, may not meet expectations. While the price point is attractive, I believe improvements in these areas are needed to enhance the overall experience.”
