Excellent travel experience for a quick weekend trip. The hotel is fairly new, and is conveniently located within a shopping center. Multiple restaurants and bars, retail shops, movie theater, bowling, banks, even a travel agency which I utilized to book my next trip. I stayed in a room with 1 queen size bed. The mattress was comfortable, and the linens were clean, and soft to touch.
Room and bathroom were both really clean. Enough storage and counter space for personal items. Hair dryer, iron and ironing board provided. Basic toiletries provided as well. Noise was minimal to none, at any time of day or night. Breakfast provided each morning until 11am. Great for late risers like myself. Breakfast included: fresh sliced fruit (papaya, cantaloupe), bananas, cottage cheese, yogurt, granola, cereal, milk, scrambled eggs, toast, jelly, pastries, coffee, fresh squeezed orange juice.
The hotel contracts with a private taxi service for convenient transportation of guests. I used this service multiple times per day and night. Prices are above the average taxi rates. However, the vehicles are brand new, sedan type, with ac/heater. The drivers were really professional, courteous, and able to contact 24 hrs via phone call or whatsapp. And most important, I always felt safe.
I belive the most important detail of such great experience at this hotel was the entire hotel staff. Every employee I encountered from the desk clerk who checked me in at 1:40 am on saturday, to the kitchen staff and the cleaning crew. They were friendly, courteous, and extremely professional. They made me feel safe, and welcome during my entire stay. I booked the rooms online through the hotel website directly (same prices as travelocity and expedia). No difficulty submitted reservation. Payment made via credit card upon arrival to hotel (credit card number needed to make reservation).
The hotel is located 30 minutes away from airport, and both Cola de Caballo and Chipinque. Parque Fundidora and museums (which are free on Sundays) located 15 minutes away.
Overall great experience, highly recommended. Definitely coming back to this hotel for next trip to Monterrey.
