Excellent Hostel Stay

central positioncomfy bedsroom insulation

The building have much character and a central position. It is two blocks from the Zocalo and the metro. Rooms include good sized comfy beds and two bunks. We had a cute balcony overlook the street.

Our room does not have insulation. I can hear street noise and the music from the rooftop until 11 PM. It was hard for me to sleep early, and earplugs was insufficient.
