As everyone else who has booked this hotel, the decision for booking was the price. At under $20 a night it's a great price but remember the age old rule of travel: you get what you pay for. 

I had also chose this location because of its' close proximity to a concert I was seeing. Although not particularly a dangerous area, I can see that the area can be intimidating to those that have not lived or traveled extensively in Latin America.

The check in was smooth and the desk clerk was nice offering help for any questions we had.

The room was, well, sub-par. The walls were thin so it was quite noisy, the bedding and pillow cases were dirty. The bathroom door was a a thin plastic cover (like what you would find on a porta-potty) that had no place to latch so it would not stay closed. The towels were so old it felt more like sandpaper, TV straight from the 1980's, and the WiFi so weak you had to stand on the bed to get a signal. Inhale, exhale, again you get what you pay for.

What I will say is, it was worth the money: roof over your head, bed was comfortable, ceiling fan provided airflow, attached private bathroom, and WiFi (albeit a weak signal).

As a summary: this is a great place to stay if your popping in only for a night and you are on a budget. If your not too picky  (as me I've slept in bus terminals, bamboo huts and hostel dorm rooms) you'll be just fine. If you think that the Super 8 type hotels are dingy and dirty, you better spend a few extra dollars and find something better.

So-so

The room: hair in the sheets, burn holes in the blanket, clearly not washed or cleaned up at all before we arrived, the bathroom was disgusting and the water was not hot it was barely even warm (advertise hot shower).

The woman at the front desk has no business working in a hotel. I am not fluent in spanish but speak enough to where her literal lack of response and straight up ignoring my words was uncalled for. The only thing she did respond to when we spoke (literally) is when I asked her if uber or taxis where available early in the morning. She said both and asked which one, I said repeatedly I wanted an uber and she told me instead of requesting it myself she would call her friend who was a uber driver to make sure that he was there at 5am.

5am came, nobody showed, and 10 minutes later surprise! A taxi shows up and tells me the rate is nearly triple what my uber from the airport to the hotel was. So I got an uber myself, lost another 10 minutes waiting, and nearly missed my flight. The lady was totally unapologetic and clearly was mad that I had just denied her weak attempt to make a commission from her taxi driver friend by overcharging me. 

I have stayed in hostels all over the world. For Mexico (which prices are a bit higher for even cheap accommodation) this was one of the dirtiest places I have ever seen.

Dishonest front desk- tried to tell booking website we no-showed for more money. Hair in bed, no door to bathroom. DIRTY

I choose this hotel because of the convience to the bus station and all the downtown shopping. Not a four star but nice and clean with a friendly staff. Only downside my guest who visited where charge $100 pesos each to visit before dinner.
