The Perfect Base for Exploring CDMX
A fantastic, high-value stay! This Ibis is the definition of 'no-frills' done right—everything works perfectly and all the essentials are included without any unnecessary fuss. The location is truly second to none; being right next to the Juárez metro and steps from Alameda Central made exploring Mexico City so easy. The rooms are clean and comfortable, providing a great night's sleep. Most importantly, the staff are incredibly friendly and went out of their way to be helpful. At this price point, you really cannot ask for more!
I booked at the Exe Alameda Hotel for 3 nights starting on Friday, December 26. I was charged an additional $155 USD solely because the reservation stated two single beds, and I was traveling with my wife and my daughter. My daughter is 7 years old. I was charged extra for adding a third bed, which I consider was unnecessary because we could comfortably fit in the two beds, and I was also charged for a third person. They told me I had to pay because we were three people. Since I was very tired from the trip and did not want to move to a new hotel, I was forced to pay that amount. If you are going to use the Trip platform, I recommend carefully reviewing the conditions and/or services that each hotel offers.
The hotel is great, had a coffee area where you can work and set your computer, plugs, and couches around the lobby and the coffee area, they have aromatherapy in each floor and good beds. Close to downtown.
Negatives:
Das Hotel hatte zwar WiFi, aber es ist immer abgebrochen oder ging gar nicht erst.
Die Wände sind extrem hellhörig.
Das Badezimmer war undicht und nach dem duschen waren immer die Füße nass, sobald man ins Bad wollte und es hat geschimmelt.
Im Zimmer war keine Klimaanlage. Es war zwar ein Ventilator bereit gestellt, aber keine Steckdose griffbereit.
Positives:
Die Lage ist extrem gut. Man kommt schnell überallhin mit dem Uber oder den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln.
Das Personal ist freundlich, auch wenn es kein Englisch kann, oder nur schlecht.
Great hotel to stay at if you arrive late in Mexico City. Service was welcoming and friendly. Very nice room with great insulation, so I didn't really hear all the construction going on at the airport. Very pricey, but worth it if your other hotel in the city doesn't have a shuttle service to pick you up late at night at the airport.
