Hotel Virreyes

For the price, this place was great. The room was clean, spacious, and the staff was friendly. Great location next to the metro and the historic center. Our room did not have air conditioning, but they provided a powerful fan that cooled down the room sufficiently, along with the open window.

Annoyed with the check in process. You have to wear their stupid check in bracelet first off. Reception was rude and uninviting. Also, the price was much higher than expected. 38$/night when maps was telling me it would be 14$.

Lived here for a few months a few years back (yes, you can rent monthly). The bed and furnishings were old, but (mercifully) very clean and free of critters. The sorts of people you encounter in the hotel are a different story--it's part hippy hostel, part odd people who sit in their rooms and smoke pot all day. Overall, the place has a Bohemian vibe.

The location is great, just know it's on two major throughfares, so even on the sixth floor things are a bit noisy.

There's a common kitchen for cooking, although it's not very well-equipped and sometimes is dirty.

Just far enough from the historic core to be a cheap stay but not far enough for the core to get there by foot.
The good:
Location
Metro access can't be beat
Price
Rooms are clean
Friendly staff
Good Restaurants are a good 10mins walk away
Flat screen TV
In room safe

The bad:
Location (can be broaderline)
No late eats
No air-conditioning though I think you can request a fan
Rooms can get hot
Would a stay here again... possiblly

There's nothing fancy about this place, but it's a great location close to everything and very afforfable. We loved the mid-century modern furniture in the lobby... so cool.

Reasonable price, clean, nice first floor bar and partying. But noisy and not easy to sleep well.

For basic staying it’s a good option. No A.C. old. The only attractiveness is the history of the building. Many celebrities have stayed here.
