Good location but not like a hotel
I don't think this is a hotel, it is like an airbnb. I arrived at Xalapa around 12 pm from Veracruz, then I was hoping to drop off my luggage at the hotel if my room is not ready. I can only see the sign "Hotel" but do not know where is the entrance. Then there are couple garage doors and at the end I saw a bell which I rang. Someone answered in Spanish (sorry my Spanish is not good), and of course I won't be able to Google Translate to show them what I wanted. They did not let me in. Wait until someone came out from the door then I went inside to see if I can talk to the front desk. There was only a girl (I believe she is the room keeper) and she cannot speak any English. At the end I used my google translate to communicate with her and she told me the check in time is 2pm. No one offered me to keep my luggage so I have to drag my luggage with me (the roads is not flat and lots of steps). So I went back to the hotel at 2pm and rang the bell. They did not let me in and until a guy came out and asked my booking (with Expedia). I said yes so he let me in. So whole check in process was weird. You can only reach them by phone (which no one speaks English). The room itself was clean and big. But it has no fridge. At night time and early morning the traffic noise is loud. Other than that they provide free parking inside the garage. I guess it is good for the local only but not too foreigner friendly.

Great parking, location, &price but lacks comfort
Great location and price but the beds were hard and bathrooms tiny, otherwise great place to just get some rest for a night or two but long term I’d choose to pay a little more for more comfort… free secure garage parking next to the room!

Bright spacious and quiet with good beds and a strong hot shower - this is in annex of the main hotel which is a block away so you have to communicate via intercom to open the door and to check in - We arrived at 4 AM and had no problems checking in - Great location only a block away from the beautiful Juarez park and the center of town - stayed for a week and quite happy with the place - Good free Internet, free water and coffee every day

Not as advertised
The listing states that there is air conditioning, however the AC unit wasn't connected and it was hot in the room. There was a fan provided. The listing also says there is a flat screen TV, it was not. (Not a big deal except there was a USB device I needed to plug in) Front desk is not 24 hours and there wasn't enough TP provided so we had to wait until the next day for more. Checkout time was listed at 2pm online, but I think it was actually 1. That ran my credit card without asking if that's how I wanted to pay. It was a very clean hotel and water pressure/temperature we're both excellent.

Hotel within walking distance to downtown
I’ve stayed two times at this hotel in the past three months and looking forward to staying a third time soon. Simply put, the price, the location and the staff are irreplaceable.

Think twice about this one
Room was bleak, balcony a rectangular white box with floor consisting mainly of grate w/view of parking garage. No plants, nothing. Jr Suite has microwave and fridge, but not a kitchen utensil or plate in sight. I had trouble with the in room security box. Twice staff came to help me, and after each time the combination, once again, would not work. Finally I gave up. No front desk staff is there after 5 on weekdays, or at all on weekends. Felt a bit creepy at times. All this being said. The front desk staff, housekeeping, and maintaince staff were all kind and helpful. Oh, it was quiet. That part was nice.

Clean and close to Parque Juarez
I booked our one week stay, online, and everything went very smoothly. Check-in was fast and easy, and the room was bright, clean and spacious. There was a lot of street work happening on the other side of the block, causing A LOT of traffic to be rerouted directly in front of our room, and it was very noisy. If not for that, I'd have rated everything excellent. (It looks like the traffic should return to normal in the not too distant future).

Week long stay
We were originally booked for 2 nights but ended up extending for a week. This hotel was great for us. The room was large and received a lot of sunlight. We had a table and balcony and one wall was all windows. (Gardenia room) The wifi was strong for working (we are digital nomads) and the hot water was HOT. The lighting in the room was fantastic and it was also nice to receive bottles of water everyday. Breakfast was served at their restaurant around the corner and was something I looked forward to every morning. The only downside is that the room gets chilly in the evenings!

Cama dura. Mucha luz, las cortinas no cubren la totalidad de las ventanas. Hace falta una mesa o tocador para colocar los artículos personales. Mucho ruido en la zona
