“Got to love Mexico City”

We visited Mexico City for four days staying three nights in February. The hotel is close to the Insurgents subway stop. We were able to take the subway within a couple blocks to hotel.

We visited Mexico City for four days staying three nights in February. The hotel is close to the Insurgents subway stop. We were able to take the subway within a couple blocks to hotel. This hotel was great. Forty-five minute walk to the Museum of Anthropology. Great location. Great staff. The hotel has been recently renovated and was very nice and spacious.

“The good, the bad, and the dealbreaker”

The good: clean, beautiful, and a lot of space for the money. I enjoyed having my own little kitchen and loved sitting on the balcony that overlooks a tree-lined street but also had a great view of the city.

The good: clean, beautiful, and a lot of space for the money. I enjoyed having my own little kitchen and loved sitting on the balcony that overlooks a tree-lined street but also had a great view of the city. The guys who work in the restaurant are sweethearts and the food is actually really good (breakfast was included at least in the deal I had). The bad was that there is a karaoke bar across the street at which drunk "singers" are howling like sick dogs until the wee hours; not really the fault of the hotel, but still, it's something to consider. But the dealbreaker: the señora who worked at the front desk took an instant dislike to me, in spite of my fluent Spanish and my good manners. She sought every possible way to nickel and dime me and insisted that I needed to pay for an extra person after my girlfriend who was visiting me had already left to spend my last night in Texcoco with her mom. I had gladly paid the extra charges for the night she was there, but I resented being treated like a liar when I tried to explain that I had spent the last night alone. In the end I basically said, "You know what, it's not worth arguing about, just take the money," but her treatment was the dealbreaker that will keep me from ever staying at Suites Amberes again. It was unfortunate because the rest of the staff, from the cleaning people to the doorman to the waiters, were awesome.

“Average accommodation ”

I had a B&B package. The hotel is situated 5mins walk from Metro Insurgentes. Lots of shops and eateries nearby. Also a very loud late-night disco which might disturb some people. Staff were very good. The self-catering apartment was very spacious if old fashioned, and was well cleaned every day. A… more

I had a B&B package. The hotel is situated 5mins walk from Metro Insurgentes. Lots of shops and eateries nearby. Also a very loud late-night disco which might disturb some people. Staff were very good. The self-catering apartment was very spacious if old fashioned, and was well cleaned every day. A/c worked reasonably well but the heating was controlled from reception and was either far too hot or not warm enough. A big problem. No happy medium. Lots of clean towels daily. Free small bottles of water daily. Shower not very powerful but hot. Free Wifi excellent. Breakfast was in a restaurant open to the public and you use a ticket provided by reception. It was mediocre and served from a menu. A glass of fruit juice, a small plate of pre-cut fresh fruit, two sweet pastries, filter or expresso coffee and a hot dish from the menu.
