Everything was excellent about this hostel. It was my first time ever staying in a hostel, so I wasn't sure what to expect but the staff is friendly, the check in and check out policies are easy, the rooms are modern, there are many fun amenities including social events for guests to get to know the staff and one another, the facilities are clean, and the location is downtown Mexico City about a 30 minute walk away from major locations like the Museo de Bellas Artes, the square near the Presidental House, etc. Fares are cheap, so if you are thinking about Barrio Downtown, don't hesitate!
