The service and staff were amazing, they were very helpful and gave great tips. The breakfast that was included never disappointed us, and we were greeted by the Axolotls in the aquarium every morning. Highly recommend, if you want to be in a neighbourhood that’s walking distance to everything, and next to some hip restaurants, however if you’re a light sleeper, take into consideration that the streets get lively at night.
