Hotel Mexicali - 06880 Ciudad de México

It's and "OK" hotel. Good things: The location is just right outside Metro Chabacano which is a metro station where 3 lines combines under the same ticket (5.- pesos). The hotel rooms are spacious and quite acceptable; it has a small restaurant and it offers breakfast buffet. There are different types of rooms, from simple to luxury with Jacuzzi. The prices are acceptable for the location and the quality of the rooms is far better than other hotels in the same street. WARNING: The hotel staff can be very "unkind"; keep in mind that workers usually have the minimum monthly salary and they follow the owner orders otherwise they might get fired or fined. Having said so, here is my review. The reception will keep you waiting for a room if you arrive in the late evening until there is the shift of personal between 22:00-23:00; it might be because it's extra work for the receptionists already working? it might be the order of the owner? it might be as they claim "the rooms are not clean, so you have to wait"; it might be any other reason, so be aware that you might be waiting without a promise a room. Once the new receptionist starts working, she calls for the people to stand in queue, so you basically must wait around the reception like a hungry lion. It's an annoying and archaic system, but it's Mexico so don't expect them to change or be customers oriented. If you want to book another night the system will be the same. The receptionists won't let you book more than one night unless it's a group. Annoying. The rooms facing the street Calzada de Tlalpan are very noisy, so be aware.

I rented a room, room 437 from September 29 til October 18th. The room or rooms were okay... clean but I was bitten by bugs but never saw a bug... I can only assume that it was fleas or bed bugs ... WHAT I did not like most about the hotel was the female clerks did not try to really help or assist no matter how much I tried to speak Spanish which I admit was poor. However the security was pretty nice... and helpful. ALSO I was late one day with paying for my room and the female desk clerk had the Security guy come to my room at 1 AM , I was sleep but he knocked and she called and demanded payment... I thought that yes I owed for the room but was not going to run in the middle of the night. Then when I gave them a $50.00 bill because I was out of pesos I got the UGGH!!... and she wanted only pesos... but was allowed to return to my room... when I left I did take a set of pillow cases and the key to the room ... and will return the room key when I return to Mexico or I get an apology from the HOTEL Management. The rest of the staff as far as the cleaning crew etc was pleasant and did what was expected... the rooms are reasonable and actually I found it convenient for my purpose. Hotel management are welcome to contact me if they wish but please keep in mind my Spanish is not good but I do invite a response from Management.

There's great service and ammenities, buffet breakfast or dinner is always included, room is always spotless, they always have rooms for spending the night unlike the rest of the hotels in the same avenue (Tlalpan ave.), bathrooms are really pretty and is overall great for what you pay, really reliable place.

The room was large and the bed super comfortable. There was no hot water in the shower or fan/aircon in the room so I had to sleep with the window open. Really noisy as on a main road, with or without the windows open. The manager was really nice and helpful and spoke a good amount of English. I did order a vegan soup and it came out topped in sour cream, but once i scraped that out it was tasty. Also be weary getting in and out of the elevator, its really old and doesn't stop flush with the next floor! I feel the room.was overpriced for what I go.

Good to stay only if you don’t have another alternative and make sure you buy a bottle of PEPTOBISBOL if you eat there the food is terrible and expensive!

We had a wonderful stay here! The service was fast, the concierge and doorman were extremely helpful and very friendly. We had no issues whatsoever! Prices were affordable and it is down the street from both a gas station and 7/11. It was very easy to get to, plus, they have a parking garage.

I was amazed. Wasn't expecting this The only inconvenience is that there is not AC also there is not ice dispenser. Beside that everything is good .

Decent place to stay for the night but make sure you tell the front desk you have people staying with you as there is a guy that tells you they need to pay extra…. Room overall big but could use an A/C unit as the room got hot, no remote for the tv and needs more electrical outlets Free basic breakfast coffee, orange juice and one sweet bread.
